Overview
- Presents model approaches for individual landscape indicators and landscape modelling, as well as landscape-related decision support systems
- Focuses on methods and models that reflect the landscape and individual landscape indicators as a basis for scenario simulations
- Considers model approaches for the landscape at different scales
- Illustrates the complexity of the landscape as a system and helps readers find solutions for sustainable land use
- Includes a large number of model approaches to the landscape system and individual landscape indicators from Russia, which have not previously been published in English

Vitaly Terleev is a Professor at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Russia. He studied Physics at Omsk State University, USSR, graduating in 1989 with a candidate degree in Agricultural Meteorology. He received his Doctor in Agricultural Science (Agrophysics) degree in 2002. From 1991 to 2001, he worked at St. Petersburg State University, and since 2004, he has been working at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. Vitaly Terleev specialises in modelling soil water and soil nutrient processes in agro-ecosystems and in describing hydrophysical soil properties. He has participated in many national and international research projects and has published over 230 papers, including more than 30 peer-reviewed articles, as well as five books. He has established a fruitful international scientific cooperation network and contributes to the work of various organizations and working groups with his knowledge and experience.
Karl-Otto Wenkel is a Guest Scientist at theLeibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) Müncheberg, Germany. He studied Melioration and Crop Sciences at the University of Rostock and Agricultural Informatics at the Martin Luther University Halle, Germany. In 1975, he graduated with a doctorate in Agriculture, and in 2004 he became an Honorary Professor at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Russia. From 1971 to 1991, he worked at the Research Centre for Soil Fertility Münchenberg. From 1992 until his retirement in 2013, he was the Head of the Institute of Landscape Systems Analysis at ZALF. He has extensive experience in the fields of integrated landscape modelling, decision support systems, river basin management, irrigation scheduling, and precision agriculture. He has published more than 200 papers, including more than 80 peer-reviewed publications and book chapters.
