Conference topics
Spatial pattern and functioning of landscapes:
Relationships between landscape spatial structure and ecological processes, multi‑scale dynamics, fragmentation, spatial heterogeneity and resilience of landscapes.
Landscape history, dynamics and scenario modelling:
The role of historical factors in the present‑day structure and functioning of landscapes and the use of scenarios to explore alternative future landscape trajectories.
Landscape patterns of communities and biodiversity:
Landscape factors shaping and maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem resilience.
Adaptation of human–nature systems to the climate‑related risks:
ssessment of territorial vulnerability, climate adaptation and risk management; including exposure and sensitivity of communities and infrastructure, and integration of climate risk into planning and governance.
Ecosystem services and nature‑based solutions:
Development and implementation of nature‑based solutions in land management and spatial planning.
Cultural landscapes within social‑ecological systems:
Cultural landscape processes, and social dimensions of landscape change.
Agroecology and Sustainable land management:
Crop and livestock land use, agroecological practices and their effects on the sustainability and ecological functions of agricultural landscapes.
Digital landscapes: remote sensing, GIS and big data:
Satellite data and time series of vegetation, land‑use and climate indicators, machine‑learning and AI methods for analyzing and forecasting landscape processes; research reproducibility and open data.
