Urban land-use, land-cover classification through watershed segmentation in the V–I–S feature space

Journal Articles & Books
Décembre, 2012

This article introduces an innovative approach using marker-controlled watershed segmentation (WS) in the Vegetation–Impervious Surface–Soil (V–I–S) feature space for urban land-use and land-cover (LULC) classification. The complement (e.g., the inverse) of the V–I–S feature space image shows depressions, which can be treated as topographic watersheds and they correspond to LULC classes. WS partitions the complement of V–I–S feature space image into LULC regions based on user-specified initial markers.

Human–Elephant Conflict Around Bénoué National Park, Cameroon: Influence on Local Attitudes and Implications for Conservation

Journal Articles & Books
Décembre, 2012
Cameroun

Crop raiding by African elephants threatens human livelihoods and elephants, yet studies of long-term changes in crop raiding and effects on attitudes are lacking. The scope of perceived crop damage in three communities and local attitudes toward elephants and protected areas were surveyed in the Bénoué Wildlife Conservation Area, Cameroon in 2010. Temporal changes in attitudes and perceived crop damage were estimated using previous work. The percent of households reporting elephant crop raiding increased since 1997 (58% vs. 40%).

Supply of Private Acreage for Recreational Deer Hunting in Georgia

Journal Articles & Books
Décembre, 2012
Géorgie

Understanding factors that influence the supply of private acreage for lease hunting has become increasingly important to sustaining hunting. Improving on existing studies that mostly utilized landowners' responses from contingent surveys, we adopted a different approach to this question by analyzing 2009 market data from Georgia counties.

Restoring the bush on private land: perspectives of landholders in Victoria

Journal Articles & Books
Décembre, 2012

Change in the extent and quality of native vegetation in rural landscapes in Victoria has not occurred evenly, or predictably, across the state over the past 50 years. There is variation in the presence of remnant native vegetation across land tenure, agronomic potential and from site-specific historical events. Even when there is an increase in native vegetation on farmland, it is uncertain how different landholders perceive this change and the extent to which environmental programs influence their management.

Reversing scattered tree decline on farms: implications of landholder perceptions and practice in the Lachlan catchment, New South Wales

Journal Articles & Books
Décembre, 2012

Scattered trees are declining rapidly on Australian farms, a process that threatens landscape sustainability. Addressing this decline requires, in part, understanding how landholders perceive and manage scattered trees. We explored this via a quantitative survey of landholders in the Lachlan catchment of New South Wales. Although landholders are typically aware that scattered trees are declining more rapidly than other trees on the land they manage, they are less likely to actively encourage their regeneration compared to other trees.
