• Assessing the Effectiveness of Payments for Ecosystem Services: an Agent-Based Modeling Approach

  Published on January 31, 2014
  To assess the impacts of these interactions on the effectiveness of PES programs, we developed a spatially explicit agent-based model: human and natural interactions under policies (HANIP).

• JASSS - Land-Use Changes in Distant Places: Implementation of a Telecoupled Agent-Based Model

  Published on January 31, 2020
  We construct a new type of agent-based model (ABM) that can simulate land-use changes at multiple distant places (namely TeleABM, telecoupled agent-based model).

• JOURNAL OF LAND USE SCIENCE - Land-use changes across distant places: design of a telecoupled agent-based model

  Published on November 18, 2019
  We apply the framework to design an agent-based model (TeleABM) that represents land-use changes in telecoupled systems to investigate how local land-use changes are affected by flows. The Brazil–China telecoupled soybean system is used as a demonstration.

• Impacts of Demographic and Socioeconomic Factors on Spatio-temporal Dynamics of Panda Habitat

  Published on June 21, 2004
  Demographic and socioeconomic factors of individual people and households may have significant impacts on their environment, which in turn may affect the spatio-temporal dynamics of wildlife habitat and local biodiversity.
