TL;DR: The SSP narratives as discussed by the authors is a set of five qualitative descriptions of future changes in demographics, human development, economy and lifestyle, policies and institutions, technology, and environment and natural resources, which can serve as a basis for integrated scenarios of emissions and land use, as well as climate impact, adaptation and vulnerability analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Methods of multiple resolution map comparison are applied to quantify characteristics for 13 applications of 9 different popular peer-reviewed land change models using scientifically rigorous, generally applicable, and intellectually accessible statistical techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
A spatial explicit allocation procedure for modelling the pattern of land use change based upon actual land use
TL;DR: This paper describes how changes in land use are allocated in the CLUE modelling framework, a methodology to model near future land use changes based upon actual and past land use conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The potential of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps for semi-quantitative scenario development, with an example from Brazil
TL;DR: An example from the Brazilian Amazon shows that by including an integrated set of factors and feedbacks, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps can capture (future) dynamics of deforestation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linking stakeholders and modellers in scenario studies: The use of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps as a communication and learning tool
TL;DR: Results show that the hypothesis that Fuzzy Cognitive Maps can be used as part of a scenario development framework and that the new framework can help to bridge the gap between storylines and models is supported.
