- abstract = "This dissertation presents a spatio-temporal land-change model that represents decision making in the context of socio-economic and ecological forces for the southern Yucatan peninsular region of Mexico. It integrates decision-making theories and considers land-use and land-cover change modelling techniques. It then describes a modeling framework that supports agent-based modelling and cellular modelling of land-change, the SYPR Integrated Assessment. This application focuses on the use of genetic programming to represent decision making.",
