Land and ecosystem functions

Where:

Land cover is the physical characteristics of the land surface determined by both its biotic and abotic features.Land use is determined by the purposes of active and passive management of land by people and the material non-material benefits they derive from it. Natural Capital is includes natural resource stocks, land and ecosystems, as well as biodiversity which is the variety of ecological elements present in a place (genes, species, communities and habitats, etc.).Land and ecosystem functions are the potentials or capacities that land and ecosystems have to generate useful outputs for people.Ecosystem services are the specific and final contributions that ecosystems make to human well being.

Should we calculate the 1990 data for the same courtiers as the 2006 data are available for – should we have average transfer per year?

®

The DLT 51% method utilizes the principle of “majority ownership” in order to establish DLT, applying the logic that if any given pixel has 51% class membership, it is certainly dominant over all other Landcover types. DLT classes are filtered according to per-pixel percentage membership, and pixels containing less than 51% proportional membership to a respective DLT class are classified as composite land with no dominance.
