Landscape change with the transposition of the São Francisco River, in the Domain Caatinga, Pernambuco.The objective of this study was to evaluate the dynamics of land use and cover and the landscape structure, as well as the landscape structure, of the Directly Affected Area by Integration Project of the São Francisco River with the Northeastern Hydrographic Basins, from the East Axis portion located in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil. For this purpose, TM / Landsat 5 and OLI / Landsat 8 images were used, referring to the years 1998, 2008 and 2018, periods before, during and after the transposition, respectively. The land use and land cover classes used in this analysis were savanna-steppe, savanna-steppe, anthropized and / or uncovered area, water resources and agricultural area. Image processing and classification were performed using the QGIS software. Also, studies related to the landscape structure were carried out, using different types of metrics, processed in the Patch Analyst tool, an extension of ArcGIS 10.5. As a result of the analysis of the 20 years, it was obtained that the savanna-steppe vegetation cover showed a 13.86% reduction. However, there were additions in the areas of ciliary savanna, water resources, agricultural area and anthropized area in 1.93%, 0.11%, 0.31% and 11.51%, respectively. Furthermore, there was an increase in forest fragmentation, which corroborated with the results regarding for the core area metrics, which show that there has been a reduction in the size of the fragments and a trend towards the loss of the core areas, due to the edge effect.

Landscape change has been extensively documented throughout rural Europe over the past decades. The dominating tendencies are intensification of agriculture and land marginalization. In territories of former USSR radical land use changes have shattered rural landscape structure throughout the 20th century, which in many cases have led to land marginalization in form of abandonment of agricultural lands and subsequent uncontrolled afforestation. This process is especially evident in mosaic type landscapes – landscapes of small intertwining structure of patches of agricultural land and forests. The paper presents the results of the study based on application of multinomial logistic regression and cross-analysis using binary logistic regression in R of important physical factors of landscape structure such as land quality, soil texture, slope, as well as land use patch size. Additionally certain human induced factors such as distance to closest paved road, cadastral plot size and availability of Single Area Payments are added for more accurate assessment of the driving forces of landscape change and possible vectors for supplementary studies. Data was gathered in intensive field surveys combined with analysis of high quality remotely sensed data. Results show strong interrelationship of several analyzed factors and thus calls for attention to further development of methodology.

This article presents the author's point of view for to improve of the tools of the financial and economic mechanism of balanced use of forestry land with a description of foreign experience and the definition of priorities for Ukraine. The purpose of the study is to provide a theoretical and methodological justification of the characteristics and organizational and economic factors of improving the tools of financial and economic mechanism and their impact on ensuring balanced use of forestry land. Methods used: dialectical method of cognition – for the analysis of laws and regulations and scientific works of scientists on the issue of balanced use of forest land; analysis of the most pressing problems of functioning of economic and financial tools of the financial and economic mechanism of balanced forestry land use in comparison with the European experience; synthesis and logical generalization of conceptual bases of necessity and preconditions for improving tools; monographic – to identify factors for improving tools; graphical, correlation-regression analysis; abstract-logical theoretical generalizations and formulation of conclusions; method of analogies – the transfer of influences that have been found in other territories with similar objects and properties, to the territory under consideration. It was substantiated that adaptation of foreign experience, introduction of international standards to ensure balanced use of forestry land are impossible without the use of such scientifically grounded and environmentally balanced components of the financial and economic mechanism as environmental, economic, financial and organizational tools. Based on foreign experience, a basis has been prepared for improving the taxation of forestry land use in Ukraine. It was proposed to adopt foreign experience regarding the functioning of the economic and organizational instruments of the financial and economic mechanism for the balanced use of forest lands by creating and registering a commodity right to carbon in forests, trading it and monitoring it.

The article is devoted doctrinal issues of environmental and economic effectiveness of use land in conditions of infringement of institutional transformations. The modern approaches to the definition of content of ecological and economic effectiveness of land use are analyzed. It is established that the overwhelming majority of domestic researchers interpret this notion regarding the use of agricultural land or farm land. It is proved that such an approach is justified, taking into account the structure of the land fund of Ukraine. However, this reduces other goals of the land user and functions of the land. It is proposed to investigate the category of ecological and economic effectiveness of land use in accordance with the provisions of the ecological economics, social welfare theory, and concept of total economic value. Based on the classification of land functions, the criteria of selection material content and social form of ecological and economic effectiveness of land use are determined.

Perkembangan penggunaan tanah bergerak horisontal secara spasial ke arah wilayah yang mudah diusahakan. Penggunaan tanah juga bergerak secara vertikal dalam rangka menaikkan mutunya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pola penggunaan lahan, bagaimana manajemen penggunaan lahan di satu wilayah berdasarkan batas Nagari. Metode yang digunakan adalah analsisis spasial dengan interpretasi citra penginderaan jauh, survey lapangan, dan analisis deskriptif. Pertumbuhan pemukiman Nagari Sungai Sariak Kecamatan VII Koto Kabupaten Padang Pariaman mengakibatkan pemanfaatan ruang menjadi tumpang tindih. Diperlukan cara-cara pengelolaan dan managemen penggunaan tanah dalam rangka pembangunan berkelanjutan yang menaikkan taraf hidup masyarakat dan tidak menimbulkan kerugian lingkungan.Terdapat 9 jenis penggunaan lahan yang ada di Nagari Sungai Sariak. Penggunaan lahan tersebut adalah Primary Forest, Secondary Forest, Paddy Field, Settlement, Mixed Plantations, Crop Fields, Water Bodies, Bushes, dan Plantations. Penggunaan lahan yang paling luas di Nagari Sungai Sariak adalah jenis penggunaan lahan Primary Forest, sebesar 48% dari total luas wilayah Nagari Sungai Sariak. Pada tahun 2011 sampai tahun 2016, penggunaan lahan paling luas terjadi pada penggunaan lahan jenis Primary Forest yang kemudian menjadi Mixed Plantations. Land use Changes moved horizontally spatially towards areas that are easily cultivated. The land use also moves vertically in order to increase its quality. This study aims to analyze land use patterns, how land use management in one area is based on Nagari boundaries. The method used is spatial analysis with interpretation of remote sensing images, field surveys, and descriptive analysis. The growth of Nagari Sungai Sariak in Kecamatan VII Koto, Kabupaten Padang Pariaman resulted in overlapping use of space. Management methods are needed and management of land use in the framework of sustainable development that raises the standard of living of the community and does not cause environmental losses. There are 9 types of land use in the Nagari Sungai Sariak. The land uses are Primary Forest, Secondary Forest, Paddy Field, Settlement, Mixed Plantations, Crop Fields, Water Bodies, Bushes, and Plantations. The most extensive land use in Nagari Sungai Sariak is the type of Primary Forest land use, amounting to 48% of the total area of the Nagari Sungai Sariak. From 2011 to 2016, the most extensive land use occurred in Primary Forest land uses which later became Mixed Plantations.

Land use change is an important driving force factor affecting the river water environment and directly affecting water quality. To analyze the impact of land use change on water quality change, this study first analyzed the land use change index of the study area. Then, the study area was divided into three subzones based on surface runoff. The relationship between the characteristics of land use change and the water quality grade was obtained by grey correlation analysis. The results showed that the land use types changed significantly in the study area since 2000, and water body and forest land were the two land types with the most significant changes. The transfer rate is cultivated field > forest land > construction land > grassland > unused land > water body. The entropy value of land use information is represented as Area I > Area III > Area II. The shift range of gravity center is forest land > grassland > water body > unused land > construction land > cultivated field. There is a strong correlation between land use change index and water quality, which can be improved and managed by changing the land use type. It is necessary to establish ecological protection areas or functional areas in Area I, artificial lawns or plantations shall be built in the river around the water body to intercept pollutants from non-point source pollution in Area II, and scientific and rational farming in the lower reaches of rivers can reduce non-point source pollution caused by farming.
