CLUMondo is a forward looking, dynamic simulation model that simulates land system changes in response to various types of exogenously defined demand and endogenously defined transition rules (van Asselen and Verburg, 2013) Ecosystems CoastalContinental shelfCroplandGrasslandHeathland and shrubMarine inlets and transitional watersOpen oceanRivers and lakesSparsely vegetated landUrbanWetlandsWoodland and forest Implementation Spatial planning Methods Ecosystem assessmentImpact assessmentLandscape character assessmentMapping/GISModellingPolicy analysisScenario development Regions AtlanticAlpineContinentalNorthernSouthern Topics AfforestationBiodiversityCarbon sequestrationConservationDeforestationDisplacement/off-site effectsEcosystem servicesIntensificationLand degradationLand managementLand use changeLandscapePolicyUrbanisation Constraints na Product requirements -knowledge and data of land systems-knowledge of modelling and GIS-GIS software for data preparation and analysis of results Advantages -Addresses ecosystem service demand as a driver of land use change-Models land systems as a whole rather than only its appearing land cover Links http://www.environmentalgeography.nl/site/data-models/data/clumondo-model/ DOI reference http://dx.doi.org/ 10.1111/gcb.12331 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeog.2016.1007.1010 http://dx.doi.org/110.1016/j.gloenvcha.2016.1006.1014 Case studies Related Oppla case studies Global scale prediction of ecosystem services to inform international policyOther related case studies: China Dry Zone Laos Mediteranean (incl. north Africa) Contact details Peter H.
