My research interests |
|
My research interests are in landscape science, particularly geographical and ecological research on landscape dynamics.
I am specialised in the applications of remote sensing, GIS and cartography in the change detection and change trajectory analyses of land cover/land use patterns. I have been using a combination of geographical data sets (e.g. aerial photographs, GIS data, historical maps) in the change analyses and thus been tackling with the content, quality and compatibility issues of different spatio-temporal data sets.
I am particularly interested in the implications of landscape dynamics on the present status and development of valuable ecosystems, especially those modified by long-term cultural influences.
I have practical experience especially with European and African landscapes. |
