Since the last century of ecological history, landscape
ecologists have played a role in solving many hot issues linking
development and conservation of landscape. Recently, cause and
consequences of landscape change are significantly related to rapid
urbanization and land transformation in populated area. Therefore,
ecological applications on the man-influenced area are a worldwide
issue and challenge in landscape ecology.
The aim of Landscape Ecological Applications in Man-Influenced
Areas is not only to expand concept of landscape ecology, but also
to apply its principle to man-influenced ecosystems. New dimensions
of landscape ecological research in a global change such as
urbanization, biodiversity, and land transformation are explored in
this book. This book also includes several case studies concerning
landscape analysis and evaluation using spatial analysis and
landscape modelling for establishing sustainable management
strategy in urban and agricultural landscapes.
The subtitle of the book suggests the integrative and ubiquitous
landscape planning considering harmony of man and nature systems in
the socio-economic and cultural background. Such key issues and
technology of landscape research will provide implements and
guidebook for decision makers and land planners as well as teachers
and students at universities.
