Landscape sensitivity for landscape management must, therefore, address not only active, largely nonlinear, environmental systems, but also the mosaics and palimpsests that are the inheritance from past environments.
Long-lived clones and associated coppice dunes are extremely sensitive landscape features; this sensitivity has conservation implications in terms of land use and management.
This paper applies the fractal method to measure the scale (grain or cell size) sensitivity of landscape metrics at both landscape and class levels using the Gold Coast City in Southeast Queensland, Australia as a case study.
Building on its multiscale and mechanistically enhanced sensitivity to landscape modifications, we applied this calibrated tool to a theoretical landscape planning problem.

An ordinary rehabilitation project can not constitute a sustainable engineering response for an old road in a high sensitivity natural landscape.
In order to ascertain the sensitivity of landscape functions, a number of linking rules can be used (for example from Marks et al.[26] or NIBIS, as described in the literature[27]).
Anthropogenic disturbances are the prime stressors that affect this equilibrium through creating fragmentation, ecosystem sensitivity, loosening landscape connectivity and disrupting ecological integrity.
