Special Issue on Land Use and Sustainability

Land use might not seem like the most exciting topic, but it's important to study. First, it tells us a great deal about the governments making the decisions for land use and the priorities they hold. Also, the better we understand the way the world has been adapted to human needs, and in what patterns, the more we can predict future trends. And, the better we can predict the future of land use, the more we can prepare for negative impacts. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of land use and sustainability.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring land use and sustainability. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Importance of land use
• Types of land use
• Land use policy 
• Land use and cover change
• Land-use planning
• Land use planning and environmental sustainability

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue - Land Use and Sustainability” should be chosen during your submission.
