  • Development of an agent-based First Nation land use voting model

    Open AccessRobert A Fligg, Derek T RobinsonARTICLELand Use Policy2025Cited by: 1References: 46

    Land use plans and policies provide a pathway for communities to achieve a vision for future types and arrangements of land uses as well as to formalize the objectives needed to realize that vision. Members of a community often share a common vision, but differ on how it can be achieved, which is the case at Curve Lake First Nation. To investigate the factors affecting land-use plan and policy adoption at Curve Lake First Nation, a stylized agent…

  • Including sustainability factors in the derivation of eater profiles of young adults in Canada

    Open AccessSadaf Mollaei, Leia M Minaker et al.ARTICLEBritish Food Journal2023

    Purpose The purpose of this research is to (1) identify factors affecting food choices of young adults in Canada based on environmental perceptions, personal and behavioral factors as determinants of eating behaviors; (2) segment Canadian young adults based on the importance of the identified factors in their food choices. Design/methodology/approach An online survey was administered to Canadians aged between 18 and 24 to collect data on socio-de…

  • Informality within Indigenous land management

    Open AccessRobert A Fligg, Brian Ballantyne et al.ARTICLELand Use Policy2022References: 6

    Curve Lake First Nation (CLFN) in Ontario has a mainland Reserve area of 649 ha and a Reserve population of 1368; 768 of whom are CLFN members and 600 of whom are seasonal or permanent non-members. Land management is an amalgam - there is much formal land tenure through Certificates of Possession (CPs) and leases but little formal land use planning. A desire by CLFN (Chief and Council, Lands Committee, Lands Manager) for more formal land use plan…

  • Agent‐Based Modeling

    Open AccessDawn C Parker, Derek T RobinsonCHAPTERInternational Encyclopedia of…2017

    Agent‐based models of geographical systems (ABM‐GS) use computer simulation methodology to model complex geographic human–environment interactions. This entry defines ABM‐GS and describes their user community and realms of application. It characterizes sources of spatial, temporal, and behavioral complexity in geographical systems and demonstrates how ABM‐GS can be used to represent this complexity. It offers practical advice on their design and …

  • Representation

    Open AccessDerek T Robinson, David G Brown et al.CHAPTERInternational Encyclopedia of…2017

    Spatial patterns emerge and evolve over time due to a myriad of underlying spatially dependent processes. Understanding these geographical processes requires the representation of dynamic complex systems and a spatial analysis that is dynamic. Studying these systems, then, requires conceptualizing and operationalizing approaches to represent relationships and interactions in space, over time, and at multiple scales that can produce emergent and a…

  • Market Impacts on Land-Use Change

    Shipeng Sun, Dawn C Parker et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the Association of…2014References: 80

    Land-use change in a market economy, particularly at the urban–rural fringe in North America, is shaped through land and housing markets. Although market activities are at the core of economic studies of land-use change, many market elements are neglected by coupled human–environment models. We scrutinized the effects of the level of detail of market representation using an abstract, agent-based model of land-use change. This model includes agent…
