Simulating the Expansion of Large-Sized Farms in Rural Netherlands: A Land Exchange Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes an agent-based simulation model of rural land exchange in the Netherlands. The model development process is part of an ongoing research program aiming at understanding the effects of climate change and socioeconomic drivers on agriculture land use and nature conservation. The first model version reported in this paper, is being developed for the Baakse Beek region in the Netherlands and is empirically grounded. The general framework described in this paper will be applied to another case study area in the Netherlands in the second phase of our research program and compare the projected land use patterns in the two case studies region.

Today, the study of the spatial-temporal pattern of urban physical expansion and the identification of the parameters affecting the expansion play a crucial role in urban-related decision-making and long-term planning processes. Consequently, the use of precise and efficient methods to predict the physical expansion of urban areas is of great importance. The objective of present study is to pro...

Extended Abstract Introduction Urban sprawl is considered as one of the well-known patterns of urban expansion, which means uncontrolled physical expansion of cities on agricultural land or undeveloped surrounding areas. What today is known as sprawl describes scattered and low-density urban expansion. Patterns of urban sprawl expansion could have adverse consequences, such as increas...

This paper examines the inter-relationship of three major phenomena- population growth, uncontrolled urban expansion and urban development in Ado Ekiti, Nigeria. Uncontrolled urban expansion has a resultant effect on the urban development of a city whereas uncontrolled urban development is caused by uncontrolled population increase is caused by Migration. This work encapsulates how population g...
