The method of Multi-Scale Landscape Analysis (MSLA) identifies such correlations.
Hence, it is clear that there is a high risk of artefactual correlations in hierarchical multi-scale landscape analyses when ecological data are related to the landscape context.
Building on its acute multi-scale landscape dependence, this model may be particularly useful for investigating the putative relationships between agricultural landscape features and pest outbreaks.
For applications to large river basins of 104 105 km2 in size, a multi-scale landscape discretization scheme is presented in this paper.
This studio will explore how, through integrated and multi-scale landscape planning and design, the highly valuable and threatened historic Islamic landscape of Valencia can play a leading role in preserving landscape identity, enriching city life, and improving urban adaptation to climate change.
In an effort to disseminate the ideas of this community to a wider audience we present this non-mathematical primer, which introduces the theory, methods, and utility of scale-space for exploring and quantifying multi-scale landscape patterns within the context of Complex Systems theory.
We continue in that vein by applying a multi-scale landscape approach to distinguish between the effects of natural seascape variation and management actions when assessing the impacts of marine reserve designation.
A spatially explicit method of network design for monitoring and sampling strategies combines stratified and multi-scale agricultural landscape monitoring and uses neighbourhood analysis characterised by the nearest neighbourhood index and Ripley's K-function.
A multi-scale approach is needed to understand the relative importance of small and large scale landscape factors that influence hazel grouse habitat selection.
Accordingly, there is a necessity for multi-scale analyses in landscape ecology to accurately evaluate the relative importance of landscape context at different spatial scales.
GMES must build on programmes such as Countryside Survey and CORINE to deliver data and information for truly multi-scale, multi-use landscape level environmental applications across Europe.
