  • Variations of ecosystem service values as a response to land use and land cover dynamics in central malawi

    Open Access•Maggie G Munthali, Mengistie Kindu et al.•ARTICLE•Environment Development and…•2023

  • The influence of discounting ecosystem services in robust multi-objective optimization – An application to a forestry-avocado land-use portfolio

    Open Access•Isabelle Jarisch, Kai Bödeker et al.•ARTICLE•Forest Policy and Economics•2022•References: 5

    Discounting is standard in economics to consider time preferences of people and account for future market changes. However, so far discounting has mainly been applied to monetary flows and ignored for many ecosystem services. In multi-objective optimization, selectively disregarding time preference for some non-monetary services create bias. Here we study how discounting a range of ecosystem service indicators influences a public planner's optima…

  • Monitoring of Urban Growth Patterns in Rapidly Growing Bahir Dar City of Northwest Ethiopia with 30 year Landsat Imagery Record

    Open Access•Mengistie Kindu, Daniela Angelova et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2020

    Monitoring urban growth patterns is an important measure to improve our understanding of land use/land cover (LULC) changes and a central part in the proper development of any city. In this study, we analyzed the changes over a period of 30 years (1985–2015) in Bahir Dar, one of the rapidly growing cities of northwest Ethiopia. Satellite images of Landsat TM (1985, 1995, and 2008), and OLI (2015) were used. The classification was carried out usin…

  • How considering multiple criteria, uncertainty scenarios and biological interactions may influence the optimal silvicultural strategy for a mixed forest

  • Changes of ecosystem service values in response to land use/land cover dynamics in Munessa–Shashemene landscape of the Ethiopian highlands

  • Land-use/land-cover (Lulc) change and socioeconomic conditions of local community in the central highlands of Ethiopia

    Temesgen Desalegn, F Cruz et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2014

    This paper presents a case study of land-use/land-cover (LULC) changes from 1975 to 2014 in the central highlands of Ethiopia and traces out its impact on socioeconomic conditions of the local community in the study area. We used four time series Landsat satellite images, that is, Landsat MSS (1975), Landsat Thematic Mapper (1986), Enhanced Thematic Mapper (2000), and Landsat 8 OLI scenes (2014), to investigate the changes in LULC. In addition, i…
