What is ROBIN?
Land Use Change
“Supporting landscape scale planning for REDD+; how useful are land use change models?”.

Continental Main Objective:
further use by vegetation models like LPJm /JULES
+ ESS modelling at continental scale
Entire South- + Meso-America: 1km scale resolution,
limited amount of land use classes equal in each country
Based on available (world ) datasets
Focussing on major (generic) socio-economic pathways+ knowledge
Using CLUE-s land use change model
Regional (=landscape?) Main Objective:
regional policy evaluation Finding relevant thresholds
at regional scale policies to see to what level up- and
downscaling is relevant Different regional scales: Amazone,
country (Mexico), detailed case stud. extended land use classes,
regionally specific Using regional, specific data
Specific regional policy scenarios Using CLUE –s/Dinamica &
Participative modelling tools
Role of Land Use Modelling in ROBIN

• pioneer vegetation in the Caronal
• dryer forest + other type savana
• More flooding in south, northwest
• Wet forest on fan
Effects of floodings due to upstream erosion & climate conditions

CLUE approach is ‘needed’ generic method to translate demands/changes in to patterns. link with existing models etc.
On the land scape scale models like CLUE needs to be linked to the policy + planning issues not easy
Policies are made by people (policy makers....not modellers):
“Useful for who?” The Policy maker or the scientist? The policymaker needs to TRUST the model output. Model s should be transparent enough to judge the effect of
the assumptions
How useful are land use change models on the land scape scale?”
Focus on policy development current limiting factors land-use planning?
