Emphases: Assessing EMergent PHenomenA in complex Social-Ecological Systems with time series of settlement and habitat networks
Summary
The project "EMPHASES: Assessing EMergent PHenomenA in complex Social-Ecological Systems with time series of settlement and habitat networks", funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), aims at extracting, analyzing and utilizing information from historical maps to better understand the evolution of natural and man-made landscapes in order to unravel underlying laws and patterns. This interdisciplinary project will be carried out jointly by IKG, the Institute for Spatial and Landscape Development (IRL) of ETH Zurich, and the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL).
