While the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is widely used for large-scale assessments, its limitations in scalability and capturing complex environmental interactions in diverse landscapes persist. Machine learning (ML) techniques offer a promising alternative by handling large datasets and modeling non-linear relationships, yet their ‘black box’ nature often hinders interpretability, which is essential for practical applications in soil conservation. This study addresses these challenges by applying six ML algorithms—Random forests (RF), Support vector machines (SVM), AdaBoost (AB), Logistic regression (LR), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), and Multi-layer perceptron (MLP)—to develop soil erosion susceptibility maps (SESM) across South Korea. Using the RUSLE model for preliminary identification and combined with high-resolution satellite images, we assigned erosion-prone areas to serve as the training data for our analysis. Thirteen key environmental factors were considered. To enhance the interpretability of the ML models, we integrated SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), a method to attribute predictions to individual features, to enhance ML model interpretability. Our results indicate that the RF and SVM models achieved the highest predictive accuracy. SHAP analysis revealed that slope and land cover were the most influential in predicting SESM. This approach bridges advanced modeling techniques and practical applicability, enabling targeted soil conservation strategies in South Korea and offering a scalable framework for other erosion-prone regions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"155 ","pages":"Article 107592"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143923788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, the useful agricultural area continues to decrease. Land take is leading to increasing pressure on farmland, which is threatened by different phenomena –such as natural risks and demographic dynamics–. Farmland is therefore threatened by a number of different factors. A multi-criteria approach is needed to consider many factors and their interactions. Nevertheless, scientific understanding of the multi-threat approach is still limited when it comes to understanding the issue of agricultural land pressure. Thus, this research implements a multi-criteria evaluation workflow to develop multi-criteria models of land threat on agricultural land based on four composite indicators: land take, energy competitiveness, natural and anthropogenic hazards, and demographic decline. These indicators are synthetized in a global multi-criteria model of agricultural land pressure. The study area is the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region, the largest French region with 9 functional urban areas and 1,597,720 agricultural plots (39,458.2 sq.km). This research is entirely based on open data according to the INSPIRE Directive, using Geographic Information Systems (ArcGIS Pro). Results show high threat level in 242,525 plots (14.93 % of agricultural area) and very high levels in 380,202 plots (20.75 % of agricultural area). Land take and natural hazards definitively contribute to the threat level. The study reveals that plots under threat tend to be smaller than less threatened ones.

Aiming at the lack of using China's Third Land Survey data to study the non-grain production of cultivated land (NGPCL) at county level, this paper takes 2481 county-level administrative units as the analysis object, and uses China's Third Land Survey data, cropping system data, and grain sown area data to study NGPCL. The results show that the degree of NGPCL in China is serious. In 2022, the coefficient of NGPCL was 62.11 %, and lost grain sown area (LGSA) exceeded cultivated land area in one third of county-level administrative units. NGPCL also has great impact on grain yield. In 2022, the amount of lost grain (ALG) exceeded half of the grain output, nearly 70 %. In more than 40 % of county-level administrative units, the ALG exceeded the grain output. At the same time, the degree of NGPCL, the ALG and the coefficient of grain loss (CGL) show significant differences in spatial distribution. It indicates that the serious degree of NGPCL does not necessarily mean that the ALG is large. The degree of NGPCL in plain area, hilly and mountainous area has a serious impact on grain yield, but the difference is not significant. Although the degree of NGPCL in the main grain consumption area is large, the ALG is small. Although the degree of NGPCL is relatively small in the main grain production area and the balanced grain production and consumption area, the ALG is large. Based on the above research results, it is pointed out that China's NGPCL is seriously, but it should also be noted that the potential of non-grain production management to increase grain output is huge. The management of NGPCL should not only pay attention to the surface phenomenon of the degree of NGPCL, but the impact of NGPCL on grain output is the key to the management of NGPCL. The control of NGPCL in hilly and mountainous area should also be paid enough attention.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17933,"journal":{"name":"Land Use Policy","volume":"155 ","pages":"Article 107586"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143906628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Debate on their efficiency continues, although a third hybrid strategy has emerged. The balance between these strategies is context-dependent, limiting generalizations. We addressed this challenge using a metapopulation-based model to simulate species persistence in agricultural landscapes under different management strategies. Our model captures the influence of contextual factors, such as landscape composition, connectivity, and pest incidence, allowing us to evaluate how landscape management strategies influence biodiversity and ecosystem services such as pest regulation. Our results highlight key factors for designing effective landscape management strategies. First, maintaining intermediate quality habitats (e.g., agroforests) within the landscape is essential to support pest controllers and thus, the provision of ecosystem services. Second, although agroforestry expansion can reduce economic returns compared to conventional agriculture, biodiversity offsets these costs when pest pressure is high and biological control is effective. These findings emphasize the importance of an integrated approach to implement effective landscape management strategies, optimizing both productivity and biodiversity conservation. This study reveals the potential of a hybrid ‘land blending’ strategy, able to outperform traditional land sparing-sharing approaches, while offering greater flexibility for change and uncertainty. To our knowledge, this study represents the first theoretical modelling approach to assess the effectiveness of conservation strategies without considering specific contextual influences.

Using high-resolution data from Copernicus Urban Atlas initiative, the approach evaluates the actual rank-size distribution of 20 distinct land-use categories within metropolitan Athens, Greece. As a novel contribution to regional science, three model specifications were tested on the individual land parcel: (i) a baseline model verifying the rank-size relationship for each land-use class, (ii) an extended model incorporating a fractal index to capture landscape complexity, and (iii) a model adding the distance from downtown Athens to verify the mono-centric assumption <em>à la</em> Von Thünen. Empirical findings reveal significant variations in Zipf’s applicability across different land-use classes, highlighting the influence of spatial convolution and metropolitan gradient on the rank-size distribution. The spatially explicit Multi-scale Geographically Weighted Regression (MGWR) method outperforms the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) approach, confirming the appropriateness of accounting for both spatial distribution and local heterogeneity of land parcels when testing the rank-size relationship. Results indicate that, while certain land-use classes exhibit patterns closely aligned with Zipf's law, others demonstrate deviations that reflect varying levels of spatial regularity, underlying economic and/or natural constraints. The study underscores the importance of land-use specificity in spatial planning and suggests policy interventions aimed at sustainable land management when planning the long-term evolution of metropolitan hierarchies.
