Title: | Evolution of land use-change modeling: routes of different schools of knowledge | Authors: | AZADI, Hossein Barati, Ali Akbar RAFIAANI, Parisa Taheri, Fatemeh Gebrehiwot, Kindeya WITLOX, Frank Lebailly, Philippe |
Issue Date: | 2016 | Source: | Landscape and Ecological Engineering, 13 (2), p. 319-332 | Status: | In press | Abstract: | Although much has been published on land use-change models (LUCMs), no study has comprehensively dealt with the evolution of land use models based on schools of knowledge. The primary objective of this paper is an explanation of the progress and growth of LUCMs concerning their main ontological, epistemological, and methodological origins. Five main paradigms, i.e., positivism, post-positivism, constructivism, participatory, and pragmatism approaches, are discussed in order to assess the current orientations of LUCMs. Given the complexities of LUCM components, the study concludes that one paradigm cannot adequately address all methodological aspects. Accordingly, it is necessary to combine quantitative and qualitative paradigms to create mixed-method approaches within a systemic framework. Such systemic approaches could shape the most probable future generations of LUCMs, which would be able to cope with the complexity of various subsystems, including biophysical and socioeconomic ones. | Notes: | Azadi, H (reprint author), Hasselt Univ, Ctr Environm Sci, Hasselt, Belgium hossein.azadi@ugent.be | Keywords: | environmental planning; land management; land use modeling; knowledge school; sustainable land use | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/22964 | Link to publication/dataset: | http://download.springer.com/static/pdf/83/art%253A10.1007%252Fs11355-016-0311-9.pdf?originUrl=http%3A%2F%2Flink.springer.com%2Farticle%2F10.1007%2Fs11355-016-0311-9&token2=exp=1482325950~acl=%2Fstatic%2Fpdf%2F83%2Fart%25253A10.1007%25252Fs11355-016-0311-9.pdf%3ForiginUrl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Flink.springer.com%252Farticle%252F10.1007%252Fs11355-016-0311-9*~hmac=a669d01caf6a4befb694498f33e45950189e12a5544f3741e23510d3f45f52a1 | ISSN: | 1860-1871 | e-ISSN: | 1860-188X | DOI: | 10.1007/s11355-016-0311-9 | ISI #: | 000404924200009 | Rights: | (c) International Consortium of Landscape and Ecological Engineering and Springer Japan 2016 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2018 |
