Key Themes and Discussions

Modelling Techniques:
- CLUE-S Model: An extensive discussion on the CLUE-S (Conversion of Land Use and its Effects at Small regional extent) model, which is a widely used tool for predicting land use changes. The model’s flexibility and adaptability to different regional contexts were highlighted.
- Scenario Analysis: Presentation of different scenario analyses to understand potential future land use changes and their impacts.
Case Studies:
- Latvia: Focused on land use changes in the context of peatland conservation and agricultural expansion.
- Romania: Examined the impacts of socio-economic changes on land use patterns, particularly in rural areas.
- Czech Republic: Highlighted urban expansion and its effects on surrounding agricultural lands and natural habitats.
Participatory Approaches:
- Emphasis on involving local communities and stakeholders in the modelling process to ensure the relevance and applicability of the models.
- Use of participatory mapping and workshops to gather local knowledge and validate model outputs.
Policy Implications:
- Discussion on how land use models can inform policy decisions, particularly in the areas of sustainable development, climate change adaptation, and biodiversity conservation.
- Examples of how models have been used to support policy-making at both national and regional levels.
Technology Integration:
- Use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) technologies to enhance the accuracy and applicability of land use models.
- Integration of IACS data to improve the spatial resolution and temporal accuracy of land use predictions.
