Drivers of changes in agricultural intensity in Europe (2016, background): “We understand spatial determinants as driving factors that are spatially associated with agricultural intensity changes in Europe and thus contribute to the statistical explanation of the location and amount of changes (following Meyfroidt, 2015).”
Middle-range theories of land system change (2018, background): “…involving improvements in remote sensing and other geospatial analyses; and (iii) the interdisciplinary nature of land system science, which has led to the borrowing of theories from related disciplines including geography, landscape ecology, economics, and anthropology (Meyfroidt, 2015, 2016).”
