Variation of the Omo Delta between 1990 and 2018
Deltas, being areas where river sediments accumulate, are sensitive to changes in climate and anthropogenic processes that affect sediment generation. The Omo Delta, on the Ethiopia–Kenya border, is constantly changing due to fluctuating lake levels, a variable climate, and rapidly changing land use. Due to field data scarcity and the region's limited accessibility, we relied on remote sensing (RS) data to investigate delta extent between 1990 an…
Maximising runoff retention by vegetated landscape elements positioned through spatial optimisation
An iterative runoff propagation approach to identify priority locations for land cover change minimizing downstream river flood hazard
Mapping abundance distributions of allergenic tree species in urbanized landscapes
Residential green space types, allergy symptoms and mental health in a cohort of tree pollen allergy patients
Analysis of Land Use Land Cover Dynamics and Driving Factors in Desa’a Forest in Northern Ethiopia
An evaluation of species distribution models to estimate tree diversity at genus level in a heterogeneous urban-rural landscape
Historical changes in the traditional agrarian systems of Burundi
The global farming conditions have gone profound mutations that steadily increased vulnerability among smallholder farmers. As consequence, rural households have set mechanisms of livelihood adaptation in order to preserve consumption requirements and secure the family living. They define livelihood through a complex system and interactions, taking place across scales that lead to emergent properties and self-regulatory mechanisms. This paper pro…
Merging and expanding existing ontologies to cover the Built Cultural Heritage domain
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the development of an ontological model consisting of terms and relationships between these terms, creating a conceptual information model for the Built Cultural Heritage (BCH) domain, more specifically for preventive conservation. Design/methodology/approach The On-To-Knowledge methodology was applied in the ontology development process. Terms related to preventive conservation were identified by m…
A value-based monitoring system to support heritage conservation planning
Purpose — The purpose of this paper is to presents a conceptual framework for a value-based monitoring system that serves as the core element for heritage conservation planning of World Heritage Sites. It reports on the early stage of heritage management research within the PRECOM3OS framework, in collaboration with the University of Leuven in Belgium and the Universidad de Cuenca in Ecuador. A new management concept was developed throughout a fi…
