Large-scale land acquisitions and land cover change in Ethiopia
Foreign investment in agricultural land, often referred to as large-scale land acquisition (LSLA), presents a complex phenomenon with significant social-ecological trade-offs and synergies, leading to potential lasting ecological impacts. The assessment of these impacts is frequently hindered by limited transparency and insufficient data. Remote sensing offers a vital method for overcoming some of these data challenges by providing comprehensive …

Trans-boundary infrastructure and land cover change
Does population increase equate to conservation success? Forest fragmentation and conservation of the black howler monkey
The Community Baboon Sanctuary (CBS) in Belize is a community reserve for the endangered black howler monkey (Alouatta pigra). This study assessed the performance of the CBS as an International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Category IV protected area through deforestation and forest fragmentation of the CBS and 500 m river buffer, and impacts on black howler monkey habitat over 15 years (1989-2004). Using satellite imagery remote sensin…
Digital Remote Sensing within the Field of Land Change Science
The availability of repeat digital, synoptic measures of the earth's surface has resulted in remote sensing of the earth's surface forming the basis of many land change science (LCS) research questions. This article reviews passive digital remote sensing for the use of LCS and discusses the past, present and future directions for remote sensing applications within the LCS field. Rigorous detection of land cover change provides the foundation for …
Wetland conservation
Fragmentation of a Landscape
The relationship between trajectories of forest-cover change and the biophysical and social characteristics of the landscape in the mountains of Western Honduras is addressed. Metrics of land-cover change were used to infer patterns of land-use change, using Landsat TM imagery from 1987, 1991 and 1996. With 15-20% of the land cover changing across each two-date period, the study landscape was very dynamic. Areas of reforestation were significantl…
The Influence of Accessibility, Local Institutions, and Socioeconomic Factors on Forest Cover Change in the Mountains of Western Honduras
Tropical deforestation poses a threat to ecological sustainability and socioeconomic development in many parts of the world. Information on forest transformations is especially pertinent in sensitive ecological zones such as mountainous regions, where forest cover protects steep slopes and thin soils from erosion. Such areas are frequently unsuitable for agriculture, but inhabitants may have few alternatives to meet subsistence needs. Understandi…
