Description: The PhD study should therefore
develop (a) a framework how to assess generally the mutual impact of land uses
on their specific and on the landscape scale related ES provision for a
representative set of supporting, regulating, provisioning and cultural
services. This addresses the development of a spatial design for measurements
that accounts for impact gradients. (b) The question of land use structure and
how to adapt the spatial assessment approach optimally for different land use
pattern types should be addressed to ensure transferability. (c) The results
should be used to revise the program code and GUI in GISCAME1 including the
question of flexible Moore. Neighbourhoods for different impact
gradients. Number of awards offered: Not Known Duration of award(s): It is
applicable for Three years.
