Dear GLP community, Among all the news that we are bringing to you this month, we are glad to announce our new report: GLP Report No.7: Incorporating human behaviour and decision making processes in land use and climate system models. This report was based on the results of the IGBP/IHDP Global Land Project (GLP) and CSIRO workshop “Linking models of human behaviour and decision making processes with land system models” held at Lake Crackenback in Australia on November 28-December 1, 2011.
Many issues and scientific questions remain to be addressed and discussed, such as tropical/sub-tropical cities versus mid-latitude cities, direct and indirect radiative forcing of aerosols in megacities and the surrounding regions.
Dear GLP community, The deadline for session proposals for the GLP Open Science Meeting 2014 was extended! Now you can send your proposal until January 31st, 2013! Don't miss the chance to send us your proposal and be part of this major conference about land transformations! Best regards, GLP IPO
Call for sessions: Extended deadline for session proposals - January 31st 2013 The Land Science community is invited to contribute with sessions related to the conference themes: 1. Rethinking land change transitions 2. Local land users in a tele-connected world 3. Impacts and responses 4.
The theme “Asian Urbanism and Beyond” is set for scholars around the globe to explore the nature, evolution and uniqueness of urbanization issues and processes in Asian mega-cities, especially surrounding the relevancy of theories developed in Western contexts in describing, explaining and prescribing urban phenomena in the diverse social, economic and political Asian contexts.
