    Sri Lanka

    At the request of the Sri Lankan Government an assessment was designed and conducted as part of the development of the country’s national strategy on REDD+.  The assessment involved applying criteria from the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries, and Forests (VGGT) to analyze the tenure implications for a wide array of proposed policies and measures (PAMs) to address deforestation and forest degradation.  The assessment will help Sri Lanka to prioritize and make investment decisions among the PAMs.

    Nomadic pastoralism is a precarious lifestyle and a significant form of land use involving some form of mobility within extensive rangeland areas (WISP, 2007). Pastoralism provides 10% of the world’s meat production and supports approximately 200 million households worldwide (FAO, 2001). A declining trend in pastoralism with a shift to sedentary agro-pastoral practices on smaller tracks of land and its major implications on rangeland management have been noted by the authors across many regions.

    Agricultural production systems are a vital lifeline of the rural farming community in Central Asia. However, shrinking natural resource base, increased land degradation and severe irrigation water scarcity render current crop production practices not sustainable as these perform below their potential. Though there is considerable scope for improving productivity through bridging the yield gaps and introducing sustainable land management practices. However crop productivity and production pattern varies across scales, mostly driven by irrigation water availability, markets, and

    Land degradation is a pressing concern that reaches
    across all republics of Central Asia and is increasingly
    affecting the economy and quality of life in each.
    The resulting loss of arable land particularly affects
    the rural poor, who depend directly on what
    the land can provide for their very survival and
    livelihoods. The breakup of the Soviet Union led to
    mass de-collectivisation of agricultural frameworks
    across Central Asia, with formerly centralised land
    management regimes dissolved. The reorganisation

    The main objective of this study is to introduce the first consistent long ­term land cover database for Jordan. The Jordan National Land Cover Database (JNLCD) consists of four land cover maps for the years 1984, 1991, 1998, and 2014 that were developed at 30m resolution using a total of 11 Landsat TM/OLI satellite scenes. We primarily applied ISO DATA classification method and rule ­based method for refining misclassified classes. The overall accuracy achieved for the 1984 land cover map was 88% and for the 2014 land cover map was 93%.

    Assessment of future multiple ecosystem services driven by alternative land-use policies is
    useful for supporting decisions about what and where to invest for the best overall environmental and
    developmental outcomes. The task faces a great challenge due to the inherent complexity of humanlandscape
    systems and trade-offs between rural livelihood improvement, biodiversity conservation and
    carbon sequestration. Agent-based system models have been recognized to be well suited to simulate

    The management and rehabilitation of degraded rangelands are inherently complex in south
    Mediterranean where state and tribal owned pastures are grazed commonly by the agro-pastoralists. The
    prospect for increased degradation primarily caused by overgrazing and recurrent droughts is currently at
    alarming levels. Reversing the negative trends primarily requires insightful management practices,
    institutional and policy support, and ultimately sound governance. Historically, the emphasis on rangeland

    Rangelands are the mainstay of pastoral livelihoods worldwide. Within rangelands, there are landscape depressions or lowlands characterized by high production potentials with their unique edaphic and hydrologic properties. The purpose of this ongoing research is to evaluate the effect of grazing exclusion on the vegetation characteristics and plant community structure in the arid lowland pastoral ecosystems. Plots were randomly identified within two distinct lowlands in Majidya and Sabha, in the Jordanian Badia.

    This compendium and analysis of Cities in the BRICS countries were developed through a partnership between the South African Cities Network (SACN) and the South African Research Chair in Spatial Analysis and City Planning (SA&CP) at the University of the Witwatersrand. Since South Africa joined BRICS in 2010, multiple connections have been forged between South Africa and its alliance partners. However, although there is a growing volume of engagements, there is still inadequate knowledge and understanding across the BRICS.

    In the article is analysed the role of GIS technologies, their connection to the land geographical space, components and tasks of GIS, their role in observation of the state control over land use and protection of agricultural land, as well as ways to improve the system of state control through the introduction of GIS technologies.
