Marginality in a Marginal Environment:An Agen-Based Approach to Population-Environment Relationships

Marginality in a Marginal Environment:An Agen-Based Approach to Population-Environment Relationships

Project Period: September 2007 – February 2009
Project Status: เสร็จสิ้นโครงการ
Principal Investigator: Pramote Prasartkul





วัตถุประสงค์:

To test the hypothesis that across multiple social and spatial –temporal scales, marginal populations are especially likely to be affected by weather-related events, partly because of their location in marginal environments and also because of dynamic feedbacks involving human behavior. The project will test the hypothesis above by constructing an agent-based simulation model for Nang Rong, Northeast Thailand. The simulation model will incorporate feedbacks involving out-migration, return migration, marriage, residential choice, and household division in a spatially explicit model with land use as a key outcome
