Abstract:

An increasing human population is exerting greater demands upon the earth for resource production and living space. Despite its large landmass, Canada is not immune to this pressure. On industrial forested lands, one response has been integrated resource management, whereby the forest supports multiple uses within the same space and time. Under the strain of increasing pressures, coupled with a concern for the maintenance of natural systems and processes, it has become evident that the current planning processes need to evolve to incorporate a new land management paradigm. This paper outlines the issues and presents for discussion a potential management paradigm based not only on the limited scope of industrial forested lands but on the broader expanse of land management in general. Supporting the proposed Integrated Land Management (ILM) approach, Millar Western Forest Products Ltd., an Alberta-based forest products company, developed a cumulative effects assessment to complement its forest management plan. This assessment demonstrates that as a proof of concept, ILM is technically achievable and can be scientifically based. Further, integration of diverse concepts and disciplines can be organized to produce functional plans. Key words: Integrated Land Management, Integrated Resource Management, forest management, cumulative effects assessment

Abstract:

The problem of creating a methodology for integrated management of land and water resources as one of the important components of the methodology of sustainable development is considered. The existing methodological approaches to integrated land and water resources management are analyzed and their main shortcomings are revealed. The methodology of integrated land and water resources management is based on contour-reclamation and functional-cost management principles. Analogs of the first, contour-ameliorative, principle are chosen the basic provisions of contour-ameliorative agriculture and the basin principle of water resources management. This principle consists of the contour principle, according to which integrated land management is carried out in the contours of certain land plots, and water resources – in the contours of river basins or sub-basins, and reclamation principle, according to which integrated management is carried out by developing and implementing measures to improve social, environmental and economic indicators of land and water use, using the term "reclamation" in a broader sense (Latin melioratio – improvement). The functional-cost principle is chosen as the main principle of the methodology of integrated resource management. The foundations of scientific and methodological tools of integrated management of land and water resources in the form of algorithms of local, zonal and regional integrated management of land and water resources are laid. The obtained research results are recommended for research institutions, design and environmental organizations, as well as specialists who deal with the problem of identifying and implementing strategic priorities for sustainable development of land and water resources.

Abstract:

Assessing the land-use measures systematically is an essential procedure in providing sustainable land management practice. Land-use efficiency (LUE) may be measured by using a methodological framework that prescribes the conditions, integrated methods, models, classifications, an indicator system, and sequential evaluation procedures. This paper focuses on development of measuring techniques to assess the LUE on the basis of systems approach and discusses the challenges of measuring LUE according to established methodological framework. The findings of the study show that chosen integrated research methods in distinct variations according to the introduced evaluation framework may be applied for measuring LUE. Systematic evaluation of LUE is necessary to support a decision-making in land-use management and to promote a land use in better and more efficient way.

Abstract:

Land tenure is given attention in the general discussions on conservation and management of natural resources, but the necessary holistic approach to understand the linkages is less considered. Thus, we considered a watershed as a unit of reference and Integrated Watershed Management as a holistic land and water resources management approach with various roles and touchpoints with land tenure issues. To examine the role of land tenure on the management of natural resources in watersheds, we reviewed and compiled literature that captures watershed issues, integrating aspects of land tenure, and aiming to identify the key land tenure roles, dynamics, and its influences on integrated watershed management. Land tenure is observed playing various roles in watersheds and, thus, also on integrated watershed management as an approach—as a driver of change, influence for investment decisions, an incentive for adoption of practices, and leading to sustainability. Land tenure dynamics range from land tenure security, land tenure forms, land access and acquisition modalities, and how these aspects of land tenure relate with integrated watershed management.

Abstract:

SUMMARYMarine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems face increasing anthropogenic threats that are exacerbated by the ecological connectivity between realms; integrated land-sea management (ILSM) is a framework that can help address this connectivity. However, gaps in our knowledge regarding ILSM remain. This study reviewed 108 relevant studies to understand how ILSM is being utilized. Summarized are: (1) characteristics of integrated land-sea programs; (2) recommendations made from the literature for program planning, implementation and management; (3) how applied programs have been planned, implemented and managed; and (4) recommendations for undertaking ILSM. It was found that applied programs did not often adhere to the strategies recommended by theoretical papers. Applied programs were less likely than theoretical papers to specifically name the land-sea connection, over 50% did not apply a framework or governance approach, many did not include key stakeholders, and over 80% listed at least one conflict or hurdle that decreased program success. This study highlighted the difficulties of undertaking ILSM given the high number of stakeholders, government agencies and experts involved. Based on the findings, recommendations for future ILSM programs are provided.

Abstract:

While there have been a number of international initiatives centred around hydrological sciences and technical approaches, the social, economic, environmental, and legal and institutional aspects of flood management have been dealt with sporadically and in a limited manner. WMO and the Global Water Partnership have established the Associated Programme on Flood Management (APFM) to address these issues and developed a concept of Integrated Flood Management (IFM) in 2002. This article is the result of the integrated flood management approaches through pilot projects and multi-disciplinary approaches launched by the initiative since the establishment of the IFM concept. This approach seeks to integrate land- and water-resources development in a river basin, within the context of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and aims at maximizing the benefits from floodplains and at the same time reducing loss of life from flooding. This approach identified the key elements of IFM and recommended that these can be put in place by: adopting a basin approach to flood management; adopting a multi-disciplinary approach in flood management; reducing vulnerability to and risks from flooding; enabling community participation; and preserving ecosystems; and addressing climate change and variability, supported by enabling mechanism through appropriate legislation and regulations.

Abstract:

Today, more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas, and this percentage is increasing every day. Accelerated urbanization leads to overbuilding, air and environmental pollution, climate change, and various other environmental problems. One of the ways to solve these problems is the planning of green infrastructure (GI). The development of GI brings a number of social, ecological, and economic benefits, and it is one of the ways to achieve sustainable development. Therefore, it is important to include GI in land management systems. This study used VOSviewer to analyze 4385 published papers in the field of GI and 110 studies on GI in combination with land management, land administration, LADM, and land use planning from the WoS database for the periods from 1995 to 2022 and from 2007 to 2022, respectively. The current research used the bibliometric method to see what the trends are in GI and how much GI has been researched for the purpose of land management. It was shown that researchers are giving more and more importance to GI, but GI in land management systems is still not sufficiently researched.

Abstract:

Forest land use planning in Alberta takes place within the provincial Integrated Resource Planning system. The Alberta Forest Service is a major participant in this system as it is the primary resource management agency for Alberta's forested land. Several provincial land use policies direct forest-related land use, including the White and Green Areas, established in 1948, and the Eastern Slopes Policy adopted in 1977. More detailed and site specific resource management is guided through subregional and local planning. In total, these planning mechanisms provide for the comprehensive and integrated management of Alberta's forested land. Key words: Forest land use planning, integrated planning, planning in Alberta, resource management.

Abstract:

A forest land evaluation was made in the upper Kali Konto watershed in E. Java (Indonesia). The suitability of 155 Land Mapping Units for each of 13 Land Utilization Types was rated by standard procedures developed for rural land evaluation. A new concept of quantified 'land-use policy option' was introduced, being a theoretical combination of LUTs showing quantitatively, for the area as a whole, the consequences of a particular policy. The options are quantified by further specification of the LUTs in terms of one or more forest management models. The policies themselves comprise not only extremes such as 'conservation', 'population [needs]' or 'financial return' but also 'integrated' policies. In this case it is shown that an integrated land-use pattern could be developed to guarantee conservation of resources while largely meeting the demands of the local population for fuelwood and light timber and also yielding direct monetary benefits.

Abstract:

Some of the world's most valuable aquatic ecosystems such as deltas, lagoons and estuaries are located in the coastal zone. However, the coastal zone and its aquatic ecosystems are in many places under environmental stress from human activities. About 50% of the human population lives within 200 km of the coastline, and the population density is increasing every day. In addition, the majority of urban centres are located in the coastal zone. It is commonly known that there are important linkages between the activities in the upstream river basins and the environment conditions in the downstream coastal zones. Changes in river flows, e.g. caused by irrigation, hydropower and water supply, have changed salinity in estuaries and lagoons. Land use changes, such as intensified agricultural activities and urban and industrial development, cause increasing loads of nutrients and a variety of chemicals resulting in considerable adverse impacts in the coastal zones. It is recognised that the solution to such problems calls for an integrated approach. Therefore, the terms Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) are increasingly in focus on the international agenda. Unfortunately, the concepts of IWRM and ICZM are mostly being developed independently from each other by separate management bodies using their own individual approaches and tools. The present paper describes how modelling tools can be used to link IWRM and ICZM. It draws a line from the traditional sectoral use of models for the Istanbul Master Planning and assessment of the water quality and ecological impact in the Bosphorus Strait and the Black Sea 10 years ago, to the most recent use of models in a Water Framework Directive (WFD) context for one of the selected Pilot River Basins in Denmark used for testing of the WFD Guidance Documents.

Abstract:

Agricultural crops take up water, but not salt, and evaporation from irrigated land does likewise. The result is increasing salt levels in soils. Just as cities cannot ignore urban wastewater collection and treatment, irrigating farmers and irrigation districts cannot ignore what to do with the salt in agricultural drainage water. Although salt management techniques can seem straightforward, the long-term sustainability of irrigation in arid and semi-arid areas, where most irrigation takes place remains a challenge. Salt-induced land degradation is on the rise in several major river basins. Salt-affected lands remain valuable resources that cannot be easily abandoned, given their importance for food security and regional economies, as well as the significant investments in infrastructure that have been made on these lands. This policy note discusses the status of salt-induced land degradation and addresses two key questions: Why has progress been so limited in addressing salt-induced land degradation? And what measures could be taken to prevent and reverse such degradation?

Abstract:

The paper reviews the limitations of decentralized economic indicators (market prices) of the effect of land–ocean interactions on marine capture fisheries, considers the potential for improvement of those indicators, and identifies alternative indicators that can inform remedial policy where there is market failure. The primary indicators of the impact of land–ocean interactions on marine capture fisheries are decentralized prices net of the effect of taxes and subsidies; these are the indicators that guide private use of watersheds, and estuarine and coastal systems.

Abstract:

Currently, there is an acute problem of implementing investment projects for integrated development of territories. Important indicators of the effectiveness of integrated development projects for state authorities and investors (developers) are investment value and investment value management efficiency. The purpose of this work is to develop an algorithm that allows you to calculate the true investment value and competently manage projects for the integrated development of the territory for the purposes of housing construction. The object of the research is the investment value of the land plot for the integrated development of territories for housing construction purposes. The subject of the research is the mechanisms of managing the investment value of the integrated development of territories for housing construction. Baseline data are studies of various authors to determine the effectiveness of investment value management. Conducted research in this area allowed the authors to determine the main stages of managing the investment value of the integrated development of the territories and the factors that make up the investment value. The main result of the research is a compiled algorithm of an economic-mathematical model for managing the investment value of a land plot in integrated land use projects for housing construction. This algorithm consists of 10 stages. In the first two stages, information is collected about the land plot. At the third and fourth stage, calculations of land, town planning balances, technical conditions, and costs are made. The fifth one calculates the possible profit, and the sixth one predicts the possible risks. Based on previous studies (stages 1-6), at stage 7, a preliminary assessment of the investment value is made. At stages 8-10, the investment cost is agreed upon, the possibility of raising budget funds is assessed, and management decisions are made. Following the steps of the algorithm, it is possible to calculate the investment value of the land plot. The practical significance of the results obtained is connected with the possibility of their use for making sound management decisions in the field of land and property relations, in particular, for solving problems related to the management of integrated development projects by territories.

Abstract:

In order to promote the orderly development of cities and realize social public interests, a design method of a land reserve-oriented multimedia information management system is proposed. It is of great practical significance to integrate and sort out the whole process of land reserve projects through spatial information platform, effectively manage land reserve, land supply, and planning information, improve the utilization rate of land resources, and provide information support and decision-making basis for land expropriation and land registration and certification. By combining scattered information resources, integrated into a unified information service platform, realize the unified update and maintenance of all kinds of data, increase the reusability of data, and avoid data synchronization between the two levels of urban land reserve departments and the resulting waste of resources. After three tests and modifications on 50 devices, successfully increased the operation success rate from 86% to 100%, and a complete and effective land reserve multimedia information management system has been successfully developed. In order to better do the handover and transition of the reserve work, it is necessary to integrate, update, and improve the historical and existing reserve projects and build a unified and standardized land reserve geographic information database, so as to effectively promote the sharing and application of information resources.

Abstract:

Integrated weed management (IWM) can be defined as a holistic approach to weed management that integrates different methods of weed control to provide the crop with an advantage over weeds. It is practiced globally at varying levels of adoption from farm to farm. IWM has the potential to restrict weed populations to manageable levels, reduce the environmental impact of individual weed management practices, increase cropping system sustainability, and reduce selection pressure for weed resistance to herbicides. There is some debate as to whether simple herbicidal weed control programs have now shifted to more diverse IWM cropping systems. Given the rapid evolution and spread of herbicide-resistant weeds and their negative consequences, one might predict that IWM research would currently be a prominent activity among weed scientists. Here we examine the level of research activity dedicated to weed control techniques and the assemblage of IWM techniques in cropping systems as evidenced by scientific paper publications from 1995 to June 1, 2012. Authors from the United States have published more weed and IWM-related articles than authors from any other country. When IWM articles were weighted as a proportion of country population, arable land, or crop production, authors from Switzerland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Australia, and Canada were most prominent. Considerable evidence exists that research on nonherbicidal weed management strategies as well as strategies that integrate other weed management systems with herbicide use has increased. However, articles published on chemical control still eclipse any other weed management method. The latter emphasis continues to retard the development of weed science as a balanced discipline.

Abstract:

Abstract An integrated approach was applied in this article to provide a medium-scale map of land use intensity for Hungary. The main goal was to estimate its value by a small set of parameters, which are freely available and have a high resolution. The basis of the evaluation was the CORINE 2012 dataset, and a matrix method was applied to integrate the ratio of natural/semi-natural vegetation, woody vegetation and the Natural Capacity Index in the assessment to describe the complex approach of land use intensity. The medium level land use intensity map provides information for decision makers/landscape planners on the current status and spatial pattern of anthropogenic impact and indicates those hot-spots where land use intensity is high and should be focused research and management to intervene in order to encourage sustainable land use. 46% of the arable lands in Hungary show the most intensive land use. Comparing the map with the previously published hemeroby map of Hungary, more intensive impact on landscape transformation through human action was found. In agricultural areas both researches agree that the intensity and human activity is really high, and the lowest intensity class is rare in Hungary except for mountain regions and protected areas.

Abstract:

Population growth, rapid urbanization, changing diets, and economic development are among the major driving factors of increased demand for water, food and land. In this study, an integrated model was developed for managing land-water-food nexus. A water footprint-based fuzzy fractional programming (WFFP) is developed for optimizing resource allocations toward sustainable food and water security under the agricultural, food, socioeconomic, and natural resource constraints. By calculating the blue and green water footprint of each crop, optimum food requirements were converted into optimal cropping options. The WFFP method can tackle ratio optimization problems associated with fuzzy information, in which fuzzy possibilistic programming is integrated into a linear fractional programming framework. The method is applied to a case study of the Three (Yangtze-Yellow-Lantsang) Rivers Headwaters Region of China. The results can provide the basis for water and agricultural policies formulation and land-water-food nexus management in the study region.

A systems, holistic, or ecosystem approach is often advocated for water management, and has led to the emergence of integrated water resource management, or IWRM. Such an approach can be interpreted as ‘comprehensive’ or ‘integrated’, and analysts, planners, and managers need to understand the difference. Edge or boundary problems always are encountered when applying a holistic approach, and design of institutional arrangements cannot eliminate these problems but can minimize them. IWRM often does not have a statutory basis, which can lead to implementation challenges. By linking IWRM to land-use planning and official plans at the local level, IWRM can be given credibility, as well as be systematically connected to land-based issues.

Abstract:

The article defines the concept of public lands located both within and outside settlements. It is established that the legal regime of public lands is formed by legislative and regulatory documents that determine the rules of placement of relevant facilities, namely public buildings, and their use. It has been determined that public lands have a public use regime, but restrictions may be imposed on their use. It has been established that public lands belong to all nine categories of land and the affiliation of individual public lands to each of the land categories has been determined. Accordingly, the legal regime in different public lands differs significantly. The irrationality and inexpediency of separating public lands into a separate category of lands are substantiated. It has been established that planning documentation is an effective tool for the management of public lands, and the affiliation of such lands to one of the categories allows to determine which of the planning documents is relevant for the management of these lands. The land management, urban planning and interdisciplinary planning documentation is analysed and planning documents, the development of which is relevant and expedient for the management of public lands of certain categories of land are established. It was concluded that the formation of an integrated community space and effective management of its lands, including public use, it is important to systematically use land management and urban planning documentation on the basis of a community approved strategy.

Abstract:

Sustainability assessment of a river basin is usually performed separately from the planning of land uses within the basin. This work develops a methodology for simultaneously considering environmental, social, and economic sustainability for land use planning in a river basin. Systems thinking, managing for results (MFRs), and the driving force-pressure-state-impact- response (DPSIR) framework are firstly used to develop a management framework and an indicator system, which is integrated into an optimization model to simultaneously maximize the sustainability of the river basin. Moreover, a prototype of integrated management system for sustainability and land use for a river basin (IMSSLU) is established to obtain the optimal strategy. The Shetzu River Basin in Taiwan is used as case study. The sustainability of this river basin can be increased as the land use plan is developed. The optimal land use strategies for the Shetzu River Basin and its land divisions can both be generated. The total quantities of pollution discharges and resource uses of each drainage zone are also obtained. Analytical results indicate that the proposed methodology and IMSSLU system can be used to help the authorities to devise the optimal land use plan for a river basin while simultaneously pursuing its optimal sustainability.

Abstract:

A study on alternatives for releasing young conifer plantations on National Forests in northern and central California was started in 1980, and enlarged to include State of California, Bureau of Land Management, and private industry lands. Forty studies involving chemical, manual, mechanical, mulch, and animal treatments have been established and their effect on the survival and growth of conifer seedlings is being quantified. Plant diversity and succession on both treated and untreated sites are being recorded. The oldest study has had 10 growing seasons since the first treatments were applied. To release conifer seedlings, a treatment radius of at least 1.5 meters is required; smaller radii do not provide enough site resources for acceptable growth. Diameter, rather than height, is the best indicator of release. Some non-phenoxy chemicals show promise for good control of competing vegetation. Mechanical release requires additional treatments to effectively control shrubs. Mulching has given limited results to date. Manual treatments, if applied to non-sprouting and nonrhizomatous plants soon after planting, and usually more than once, provide adequate control of competing vegetation, but are costly.

Abstract:

Abstract. Future changes in the climate system could have significant impacts on the natural environment and human activities, which in turn affect changes in the climate system. In the interaction between natural and human systems under climate change conditions, land use is one of the elements that play an essential role. On the one hand, future climate change will affect the availability of water and food, which may impact land-use change. On the other hand, human-induced land-use change can affect the climate system through biogeophysical and biogeochemical effects. To investigate these interrelationships, we developed MIROC-INTEG-LAND (MIROC INTEGrated LAND surface model version 1), an integrated model that combines the land surface component of global climate model MIROC (Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate) with water resources, crop production, land ecosystem, and land-use models. The most significant feature of MIROC-INTEG-LAND is that the land surface model that describes the processes of the energy and water balance, human water management, and crop growth incorporates a land use decision-making model based on economic activities. In MIROC-INTEG-LAND, spatially detailed information regarding water resources and crop yields is reflected in the prediction of future land-use change, which cannot be considered in the conventional integrated assessment models. In this paper, we introduce the details and interconnections of the submodels of MIROC-INTEG-LAND, compare historical simulations with observations, and identify various interactions between the submodels. By evaluating the historical simulation, we have confirmed that the model reproduces the observed states well. The future simulations indicate that changes in climate have significant impacts on crop yields, land use, and irrigation water demand. The newly developed MIROC-INTEG-LAND could be combined with atmospheric and ocean models to develop an integrated earth system model to simulate the interactions among coupled natural–human earth system components.

Abstract:

Abstract The Whatawhata integrated catchment management project generated a substantial amount of data on the biophysical impacts of land use and management change - livestock enterprise performance, terrestrial biodiversity, water quality etc. The question has been posed: What was the impact of the changes on the financial viability of the catchment farm system? Farm operating budgets before and after land use changes, enterprise gross margins, costs associated with tree planting, and farm system modelling with FarmaxPro® have been integrated to give a whole-system view of farm business viability over the long term (1995-2030). This information compared the existing system (1990s) with the new system implemented in 2000. Annual operating profit for the 296 ha breeding ewe and breeding cow system in the late 1990s was between $25 000-$30 000 reflecting the size and land use capability distribution of the block. Changes to the livestock enterprises improved farm surplus from ca. $100/ha to ca. $330/ha in the first 3 years, but on a reduced pastoral land area (150 ha). This gave an annual operating profit (EFS) of ca. $50 000. Much of this difference reflected product price movements. The cost of land use change was approximately $969 000 over the first 10 years. Selective intensification of hill lands can improve per ha profitability in the short-medium term. Two key financial issues, the transformation cost and medium term viability, need to be addressed in implementing land use change to move toward hill land sustainability.

Abstract:

Sea-level rise (SLR) is known as a central part of the Earth’s response to human-induced global warming and is projected to continue to rise over the twenty-first century and beyond. The importance of coastal areas for both human and natural systems has led researchers to conduct extensive studies on coastal vulnerability to SLR impacts and develop adaptation options to cope with rising sea level. Investigations to date have focused mostly on developed and highly populated coasts, as well as diverse ecosystems including tidal salt marshes and mangroves. As a result, there is less information on vulnerability and adaptation of less-developed and developing coasts to sea-level rise and its associated impacts. Hence, this research aimed at outlining an appropriate coastal management framework to adapt to SLR on the coasts that are in the early stage of development. A coastal area with a low level of development, located in southern Iran along the Gulf of Oman, was selected as a case study. The types of lands exposed to the high-end estimates of SLR by 2100 were identified and used as the primary criteria in determining the practical adaptation approaches for developing coasts. The result of coastal exposure assessment showed that, of five exposed land cover types, bare land, which is potentially considered for development, has the highest percentage of exposure to future sea-level rise. In order to protect the exposed coastal lands from future development and increase adaptive capacity of coastal systems, we developed a Spatial Integrated SLR Adaptive Management Plan Framework (SISAMP) based on an exposure reduction approach. Spatial land management tools and coastal exposure assessment models along with three other key components were integrated into the proposed conceptual framework to reduce coastal vulnerability through minimizing exposure of coastal communities to SLR-induced impacts. This adaptation plan provides a comprehensive approach for sustainable coastal management in a changing climate, particularly on developing coasts.

Abstract:

In response to the RCRA land ban regulations and TC rule promulgated by the U.S. Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1988-1990, an Integrated Refinery Waste Management (IRWM) program has been developed to provide cost-effective solutions to petroleum industry customers. The goal of IRWM is to provide technology based remediation treatment services to manage sludges and wastewaters generated from the oil refining processes, soils contaminated with petroleum distillates and groundwater contaminated with fuels. Resource recovery, volume reduction and waste minimization are the primary choices to mitigate environmental problems. Oil recovery has been performed through phase separation (such as centrifugation and filtration) and heating of heavy oils. Volume reduction is achieved by dewatering systems such as centrifuges and filter presses, and low temperature thermal treatment. Waste minimization can be accomplished by bioremediation and resource recovery through a cement kiln. In-situ vapor extraction has been applied to remove volatile organic compounds from the vadose zone in contaminated sites. Stabilization has been effective for soils contaminated with heavy metals and nonvolatile substances. For the listed hazardous wastes generated from the refining process, a combination of liquid/solids separation and thermal treatment has been successfully applied. The sludge from the on-site ponds or continuous operations is pumped to a surge tank before heating, phase separation and volume reduction by a two-stage centrifuge system. The first stage horizontal centrifuge has effectively separated the solids from the liquid phase containing oil and water. The oil in the liquid phase is separated from the water in the second stage vertical centrifuge and is recycled back to the refinery for re-use. The water will be sent back to the wastewater treatment system for further treatment. Pretreatment of the wastewater may be required.

Abstract:

By including local knowledge, integrated fire management is sustaining an ancestral practice for reducing forest fires and conserving ecosystems. In private areas, however, it is necessary to develop programmes that include land owners, and to evaluate ways of expanding the proposed system. Reintroducing integrated fire management in the Cerrado has brought new tools and technologies that improve planning and implementation. Investment in research and development must be continuous, in order to advance technologically, and to train technicians, traditional communities and land owners. And it remains essential to reconcile new technologies and methodologies with traditional knowledge about fire management

Abstract:

Abstract. Shanghai has a long history of exploitation and utilization of groundwater in order to meet the needs of industrial production and residential water. As a result, serious land subsidence disasters were induced. Land subsidence poses a huge security threat to the low-altitude coastal city of Shanghai. The development of land subsidence in Shanghai is closely related to the exploitation of underground water. In order to control land subsidence disasters, Shanghai has taken three key measures, i.e., the amount of compressed groundwater exploitation, the adjustment of groundwater exploitation level, and the implementation of artificial groundwater recharge, which have become the most effective measures for land subsidence control. However, as the groundwater levels of various aquifers in the region rise sharply, land subsidence is effectively controlled, and the measures of groundwater exploitation and recharge need to be dynamically adjusted to adapt to the current situation. In this context, from the perspective of history, the paper analyzes the long-term groundwater exploitation and recharge process and the development characteristics of land subsidence in Shanghai and studies the evolution process of land subsidence in different stages. From the perspective of land subsidence prevention and control, the paper analyzes the management measures of groundwater exploitation and recharge and the great achievements. The research results can provide a basis for land subsidence control and comprehensive groundwater management in the new period and can also provide a demonstration and reference for groundwater resource management in similar areas.

Abstract:

Solving new problems of sustainable development of society and territories requires improving the regulation of land relations to meet the managerial, production and technological needs of society. Improving the efficiency of regulating land relations and the use of lands of all categories in the context of their global degradation is one of the most important socio-economic problems in modern conditions. To solve the problems of land management, their rational use and protection, optimization of agricultural production, taking into account the environmental safety of products, an integrated approach to the regulation of land relations is needed, which is provided by the system of land management and land monitoring. The need to improve land relations management is obvious and indisputable, and the topic of the work seems relevant and timely. The purpose of the work is to develop practical recommendations for improving the mechanism of land relations management at the state and municipal level. Management decision-making should be based on the principles of strategic and tactical planning of innovation activities, taking into account the geopolitical, economic and socio-cultural specifics of the territory.
