“…The normalized units and lifecycle thinking approach is used to analyze the spatial interactions and conflict potentials between two non‐complementary land uses (Carr & Zwick, 2007). This approach assesses the spatial extents of exploration and mining concessions on one hand, and their interactions with distributions of both tree cover and beekeeping as a livelihood activity in the local space.…”

The seminal work of the Intergovernmental Science‐Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services on pollinators, pollination, and food production, informed scientific studies on the understudied impacts of mining on agriculture sub‐sectors. This paper assesses the potential impacts of mining activities on beekeeping as an agricultural sub‐sector, and the flow‐on effects on associated economic values and enterprises to enhance sustainable development. A case study is conducted in the emerging northwest gold mining region of Ghana. The Location Quotient (LQ) and Location Association (La) models are used to explore the economic significance of beekeeping, its spatial links with tree habitats, and mining activities. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) were used to analyze the spatial interactions between concessions, trees, and beekeeping. The paper finds that districts with LQ < 1 in beekeeping also record LQ > 1 in mining, and La < 50 between beekeeping and mining. The findings are useful for stakeholder decision‐making toward harnessing and leveraging the prospects of mining on integrated rural and sustainable development.

“…Odum divided land use into four types in his compartment model, including productive areas, protective (natural) areas, compromise areas and urban/industrial areas [52]. Carr and Zwick developed their research on the land use types of agriculture, conversation and urban, which is widely used nowadays [53]. In China, there are two land use classification systems used by planning professionals.…”

Accurately identifying potential land use conflicts (LUCs) is critical for alleviating the ever-intensifying contradictions between humans and nature. The previous studies using the method of suitability analysis did not take full advantage of the current land use and multi-function characteristics of land resources. In this study, an improved model of suitability analysis was realized. In order to explore the LUCs status, including the types, intensity and distribution, a multi-objective suitability evaluation model was constructed from the perspective of production-living-ecological functions. And it was applied to Hengkou District, a typical region of the Qin-Ba mountainous area in the central part of China. The results show that the suitability distribution of living- production-ecological functions vary widely from the center to the periphery with altitude in Hengkou District; 22.03% of the land is at a risk of land use conflict. Among them, the high potential conflict areas account for 55.32%, and the conflicts between production and ecological lands (L2P1E1, L3P1E1) are the largest, which are located at the fringe of the central urban and ecologically dominant area. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt effective strategies to achieve a balance between the differential demands of land use. This research could better reflect the true situation of land use in ecologically sensitive mountainous areas and would provide theoretical and methodological support for the identification and prevention of potential LUCs.

“…main basis of the model is to identify the suitability of agriculture, conservation and urban areas using the analytical hierarchy method. Graded conflict areas are determined by overlaying the identified low, medium and high level suitability (Carr and Zwick, 2007;Naim, 2011;Taşdemir, 2017). The model includes five stages carried out through induction: determining the goals and objectives, conducting inventory studies, identifying suitability, identifying preferences, and identifying conflict areas depending on the previous stages.…”

“…The model includes five stages carried out through induction: determining the goals and objectives, conducting inventory studies, identifying suitability, identifying preferences, and identifying conflict areas depending on the previous stages. The model allows for making analyses about the lands that could be suitable for future urban development and the lands that should be reserved for conservation and agricultural production (Carr and Zwick 2007). In this way, first, the existing agricultural, conservation and urban areas are identified, and then, considering the suitability of these areas, future preferences are revealed and areas that may cause conflict between agricultureconservation, agriculture-settlement, and agriculture-settlement-conservation areas are progressively monitored (Carr and Zwick, 2007;Taşdemir, 2017: 38).…”

Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri teknolojileri geleceğe yönelik olarak arazi kullanımı senaryolarının geliştirilmesine imkân tanımaktadır. Arazi Kullanımı Çatışma Tanımlama Stratejisi (Land-Use Conflict Identification Strategy) olarak adlandırılan LUCIS model de; tarımsal, koruma ve kentsel arazi kullanımlarının potansiyel çatışma alanlarını belirleyerek bir sonraki dönem için arazi kullanım değişimlerinin nasıl olacağı konusunda öngörüde bulunan CBS tabanlı bir simülasyon modelidir. Bu araştırmada Aydın’ın merkez ilçesi Efeler’in LUCIS model aracılığıyla arazi kullanım çatışma alanları belirlenerek arazi kullanım tahminleri yapılmıştır. Bu kapsamda çok kriterli değerlendirme teknikleri uygulanarak, 56 adet alt amaç, 19 adet amaç ve 12 adet hedef üzerinden, arazi kullanım kategorileri için uygunluk analizleri yapılmış; tarımsal, koruma ve kentsel alanların gelecekteki çatışma alanları tespit edilmiş ve arazi kullanımı tahmin haritası üretilmiştir. Çalışmanın genel sonuçlarına göre: 631 km2’lik ilçe alanının yaklaşık yarısı (%48,84) çatışma alanı içerisinde kalmaktadır ve kentsel yayılma daha ziyade tarım ve koruma alanları üzerinde gerçekleşecektir. Bu durum, tarımsal alanların koruma alanları üzerindeki baskısını hızlandırarak devam ettireceğinin de bir göstergesi olacaktır.
