Land cover and economy activity Sample Clauses

Land cover and economy activity. The source for the land cover was the XXXXXX Land Cover (CLC) database. This is a seamless European land cover vector database which was completed by the Norwegian Forest and Landscape Institute in 2008. Figure 20 Land cover map of the study area as of 2010 based on the XXXXXX Land Cover database. Black circle markers are landslides from the Norwegian inventory of landslides. The land cover was projected up to the year 2090 based on the current land cover dataset. The population of the region is expected to increase by 50% by 2040, resulting in a substantial growth of urban land covers. Plans from the Akershus county to which all municipalities belong indicate that a majority of this growth is expected in central towns, described as tie- point for communication. Though not a single list of tie-points exists yet, assumptions were made that the tie-points will be the largest of the existing towns. Smaller towns and villages will most likely see smaller changes. For this study, the urban growth was therefore modelled for the largest urban areas. For each 20-year period, these urban areas were expanded by a certain distance. Urban growth was limited by excluding water features. In addition, the urban area representing Oslo Airport was kept constant, even though an expansion is expected around 2030-2040. The model was calibrated versus expected area of the urban growth and versus plans for urban development of Skedsmo municipality for 2050. The spatial distribution of land cover evolution over the period 2010 to 2090 is presented in Figure 21 and the evolution of changes for each class is shown in Figure 22. 2090 2070 2030 2010 2050 Figure 21 Land cover evolution within the period 2010‐2090 in the study area. 70 Percentage of total area (%) 60 Urban Agriculture Forest Sparse vegetation Marshland 50 40 30 20 10 0 2010 2030 2050 2070 2090 Year Figure 22 Evolution in changes on land cover classes over the period 2010‐2090.
