A multi-scale, multi-model approach for analyzing the future dynamics of European land use (2008, background): “It is well known that a wide range of local and regional factors can influence the suitability of a location for a land use type (Bürgi et al. 2004).”
A landscape perspective on conservation of semi-natural grasslands (2008, background): “Until recently, few studies have dealt with the complex system of dependencies, interactions and feedback loops associated with the human-induced changes affecting the agricultural landscape (Bürgi et al., 2004), and its effects on biological values.”

Socio-economic development and land-use change: Analysis of rural housing land transition in the Transect of the Yangtse River, China (2007, background): “…change (LUCC) have attracted interest among a wide variety of researchers, ranging from those who are modelling the spatial and temporal patterns of land conversion, to those who try to understand the causes and consequences of land-use changes (Irwin and Geoghegan, 2001; Burgi et al., 2004).”
Linking Land Change with Driving Forces and Actors: Four Conceptual Models (2010, background): “Actors can be individuals, agencies, and institutions, representing the whole range of organizational scales (sensu Bürgi et al. 2004).”
Physical and Socioeconomic Driving Forces of Land‐Use and Land‐Cover Changes: A Case Study of Wuhan City, China (2016, unknown): “LUCC have been led by a set of socioeconomic driving forces and conditioned by different natural endowments [6] that determine the trajectories of landscape development [7].”
Research, part of a Special Feature on The influence of human demography and agriculture on natural systems in the Neotropics Total Historical Land-Use Change in Eastern Bolivia: Who, Where, When, and How Much? (2008, background): “Research has shown that deforestation is driven by multiple forces that can be identified by an analysis of spatial and temporal patterns linked to both cultural and economic phenomena (Bürgi et al. 2004).”
Why history matters in ecology: an interdisciplinary perspective (2010, background): “Historical ecology offers an integrated understanding of change that considers causalities as well as sequences of events (Christensen 1989; Bürgi & Schuler 2003; Bürgi et al. 2004; Szabó 2010).”
