This result suggests that Os04g27430 is more important than Bph3 in determining BPH landing preference.
According to the key informants, grazing land preference was dependent upon feed availability and accessibility in the study areas.
The framework provides an overarching design that can be extended into specific model implementations to evaluate how policy, land-management preferences, and land-market dynamics affect (and are affected by) land-use and land-cover change patterns and subsequent carbon storage and flux.
A soil transfer experiment was designed to study habitat preference (including land-use and soil preference) and dispersal ability of soil springtail species living in a meadow and in an adjoining deciduous forest.
Based on a biophysical approach, urban energy theory and Multi-Objective Land Allocathen (MOLA), the research presented here develops an integrated ecosystem model for the Taipei-Taoyuan area of Taiwan to enhance understanding of the interactions among energy flows, land use preferences and land use change.
Land-use preference, soil preference and dispersal ability were largely independent components of species characteristics.
Discrepancies between land-use preference and soil preference suggest that other habitat features must be relevant for Collembola, and that a trade-off exists between eco-physiological and biotic interactions (including food requirements).
Furthermore, the role-playing games highlighted the differences in land-use preferences between females and males - that females preferred more profitable land uses (e.g., oil palm) while males preferred forest and rubber agroforests (Villamor et al. [2013]).
Our results suggest that land use preferences, culture, forest scarcity and dependency, inequalities (e.g., land use, amount of forest, and land area), and lack of technical capacities are key elements to be considered when developing a REDD+ strategy with colonist communities.
The purpose of this work is to explore the extent to which landowners' land-use decisions are influenced by heterogeneous land-use preferences, spatial externalities, and unique suitability features?
