Comparing the structural uncertainty and uncertainty management in four common Land Use Cover Change (LUCC) model software packages

چکیده
Research on the uncertainty of Land Use Cover Change (LUCC) models is still limited. Through this paper, we aim to globally characterize structural four common software packages (CA_Markov, Dinamica EGO, Modeler, Metronamica) and analyse options that they offer for management. The have been compared qualitatively, based their structures tools, quantitatively, through a study case city Cape Town. Results proved how each model conceptualised modelled system in different way, which led outputs. Statistical or automatic approaches did not provide higher repeatability validation scores than user-driven approaches. available management vary depending model. Communication uncertainties poor across all models.

Hotspots of uncertainty in land‐use and land‐cover change projections: a global‐scale model comparison
Model-based global projections of future land-use and land-cover (LULC) change are frequently used in environmental assessments to study the impact of LULC change on environmental services and to provide decision support for policy. These projections are characterized by a high uncertainty in terms of quantity and allocation of projected changes, which can severely impact the results of environ...
متن کاملInductive pattern-based land use/cover change models: A comparison of four software packages
Land use/cover change (LUCC), as an important factor in global change, is a topic that has recently received considerable attention in the prospective modeling domain. There are many approaches and software packages for modeling LUCC, many of them are empirical approaches based on past LUCC such as CLUE-S, DINAMICA EGO, CA_MARKOV and Land Change Modeler (both available in IDRISI). This study re...
متن کاملA CIESIN Thematic Guide to Land-Use and Land-Cover Change (LUCC)
Humans have been altering land cover since pre-history through the use of fire to flush out game and, since the advent of plant and animal domestication, through the clearance of patches of land for agriculture and livestock. In the past two centuries the impact of human activities on the land has grown enormously, altering entire landscapes, and ultimately impacting the earth’s nutrient and hy...
متن کاملUncertainty and Uncertainty Management in EFL Translators
This study tried to examine EFL translators’ uncertainty and uncertainty management strategies through employing think aloud procedures. The participants of this study were some MA andBA translators selected from several universities in Iran. To this aim, a proficiency test was firstly administered among the volunteers. Then, think aloud protocol and retrospective interview were used to collect...
