- Integrating remote sensing data and rapid appraisals for land-cover change analyses in UgandaVogt, Nathan; Bahati, Joseph; Unruh, Jon; Green, G.; Banana, Abwoli Y.; Gombya-Ssembajjwe, W.; Sweeney, Sean (John Wiley & Sons, 2006)This article presents methods for investigating mechanisms of land-cover change that combines remotely sensed data, archival data, and rapid appraisals. Presents a case where increasing human activity results in accumulation of woody biomass on edaphic grasslands of a forest-grassland mosaic, rather than the expansion of grasslands at the expense of forests as is currently understood in that area.
- Seeing the forest and the trees: Human-environment interactions in forest ecosystemsMoran, E.; Ostrom, Elinor (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2005)This article examines changes in land cover and land use in forested regions as major contributors to global environmental change. The author also investigates why some forested areas thrive even in the presence of high human densities and activity while others decline and disappear.
