2020
Rummel, Lisa | Lippe, Melvin | Günter, Sven
Four land use change scenarios were simulated in 2017–2036 for Lorento Canton, Ecuador, differing in the level of governance enforcement. Frequency of future deforestation hotspots indicate a spatial goal conflict between forest conservation and agricultural expansion policies. Future land use conflicts can be avoided by harmonizing sectoral policy needs while safe-guarding environmental integrity.
