Resulting from the influence of human beings. A modeling platform used for environmental simulations. The benefits that humans derive from ecosystems. Refers to the classification of land based on its use and cover type. 1 Predictive factors 2 Spatial patterns 3 Biodiversity 4 Indigenous territories 5 Modeling Lands that are traditionally owned or occupied by indigenous peoples. The process of creating a representation of a system to analyze its behavior. variables used to forecast future events or trends. The arrangement of various elements in space The variety of life in the world or in a particular habitat. 1 Transition matrix 2 Watersheds 3 Erosion 4 Heuristic 5 Calibration A mathematical representation of the changes between different states in a system. A problem-solving approach that employs a practical method not guaranteed to be optimal. Areas of land that drain into a particular water body. The process of adjusting a model to improve its accuracy. The process by which soil and rock are removed from the Earth's surface. 1 Expansion 2 Projections 3 Infrastructure 4 Conservation 5 Mitigation Estimates or forecasts of future events based on current data The act of preserving, protecting, or restoring the natural environment. The basic physical systems of a business or nation, including transportation and communication systems. The action of reducing the severity or seriousness of something The process of increasing in size, number, or importance. 1 Cattle ranching 2 Natural non-forest formation 3 Sustainable development 4 Titled communities 5 Remote sensing Communities that have legal ownership or title to their land. The acquisition of information about an object or area from a distance, typically using satellite or aerial imagery. The practice of raising cattle for meat or dairy production. Areas that are not classified as forest but are still natural ecosystems. Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs
