  2. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Humans and Space

  3. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Awaji Shima Region Larger Scales Smaller Scales Awaji Shima Region

  4. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Awaji Shima Region • ~ 600 km² • ~ 150,000 inhabitants • Larger spatial scales • Hyogo ken • Kinki region • Japan • East Asia • Eurasia • World • Smaller spatial scales • Municipalities (gun) • Settlement area (cho) • village (machi) • Places • Private units

  5. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Relation local, regional, global • Region is characterized • By smaller local units • By larger global unit • Regional (local, global) state • (infa-) structure within the region • Regional (local, global) use • Economy • Ecology • Quality of life

  6. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Long-, medium-, short- term processes • Processunderstanding of Landscape • Long term > 100 years steps of change • Medium term < 100 years, > 1 year changes • Short term < 1 year processes

  7. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Long term processes • Long term processes • Geology • Climate • Soil • Water System • Vegetation • Animal Life

  8. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Medium term processes • Political administration (cho, machi, sanchome) • Demographic trends • Land use • Agriculture • Tourism • Roads and trafic infrastructures • Settlement areas

  9. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Short term processes • Energy use • Greenhouse gases • Water use • Waste generation • Human inputs in agriculture • Working hours in agriculture

  10. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Landscape & Time • Landscape is dynamic • Arena for all processes • Landscape changes continously • State and Use • Longer processes generate the „state“ (Structure Infrastructure) for the „use“ in shorter processes • What is state and what is use depends on our interest • Human Understanding of Landscape Processes • Long term processes are perceived as stable/non dynamic • Medium term processes depend on long term processes, generate (infra-) structure for human beings • Short term processes describe human actions within a year

  11. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Anticipated Processes: Cyclic • Cyclic means that the pattern of change is known and repeated on regular base (can be anticipated) • Decades: harvesting of trees, perhaps climate variations, appearance of Feb. 29th • Years: harvesting of field fruits • Seasons: spring, summer, autumn, winter • Month: salaries • Week: weekdays, weekend • Day: morning, noon, afternoon, evening, night

  12. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Anticipated Processes: Non Cyclic • Non-cyclic where the pattern of change is known: Growth and Decline • Centuries: waves of earthquakes and vulcanos • Decades: • perhaps human induced climate change, • life periods such as childhood, youth, young adult, family start, family peak, career peak, agil pensionist, pensionist, • plant growth states of higher plants, availability of resources • Years: Investments and loans, • Seasons: extreme (summer) heat, extreme (autumn) thyphoons, extreme snow (winter) or floodings etc. • Month: amount of salaries • Week: visitors of touristic spots on weekdays, weekend • Day: the menue in ALPHA cantine

  13. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Non Anticipated Processes: Surprises regarding Natural System • Not experienced before • Not included in planning & management • Climate change • Impacts of climate changes • Directions of climate changes • Acid deposition, forest die-back, fish dying • Chemical time bombs • Colloid chemical compounds and pH change • Manipulated genes?

  14. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Non Anticipated Processes: „Surprises“ regarding Social System • Rural depopulation • Population decrease in developed world • Aged population, perhaps break down of social system • New power of kids as consumers • Several old people to support one kid in shrinking societies

  15. Regional Landscape Planning: Medium Term Processes Planning and Management • Is like riding a bicycle • Foreseen cyclic processes of wheels • Unforeseen but expected disturbances when passing hinders • Surprises are: a jump into the water • Planning and management in a changed context • The road beneath does no longer exist • Learn how to fly or • Learn to swim
