Disaggregating and modelling the impacts of land-use change on biodiversity

对土地利用变化对生物多样性的影响进行分类和建模。该项目旨在系统分析农业、能源使用和城市化方面的当代和历史数据，以确定最有效地减轻土地利用变化未来程度和影响的消费和技术途径。这一综合预计将利用创新的分层元模型方法开发新的预测和优化工具。一个关键成果将是解决正在进行的人类发展与保护栖息地、生态系统和物种的竞争需要之间的内在全球和国家权衡。

Disaggregating and modelling the impacts of land-use change on biodiversity. This project aims to systematically analyse contemporary and historical data on agriculture, energy use and urbanisation, to identify the consumption and technology pathways that can most effectively mitigate the future extent and impact of land-use change. This synthesis is expected to develop new forecasting and optimisation tools using an innovative hierarchical meta-modelling approach. A key outcome would be to resolve inherent global and national trade-offs between ongoing human development and the competing need to conserve habitats, ecosystems, and species.
