It is a matter of great urgency to determine strategies and tools in support of sustainable development. The book synthesizes the results of PLUREL, a large European Commission funded research project (2007-2010). Tools and strategies of PLUREL address main challenges of managing land use in peri-urban areas. These results are presented and illustrated by means of\u003cb\u003e 7 \u003c\/b\u003ecase studies which are at the core of the book. This volume presents a novel, future oriented approach to the planning and management of peri-urban areas with a main focus on scenarios and sustainability impact analysis. The research is unique in that it focuses on the future by linking quantitative\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003escenario\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003emodeling and sustainability impact analysis with qualitative and in-depth analysis of regional strategies, as well as including a study at European level with case study work also involving a Chinese case study.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45277878714519,"sku":"9783642428982","price":11017.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783642428982.webp?v=1769289441","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/peri-urban-futures-scenarios-and-models-for-land-use-change-in-europe-9783642428982","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
