Land-Use Conflict Identification from the Perspective of Construction Space Expansion: An Evaluation Method Based on 'Likelihood-Exposure-Consequence'

Land-use conflict (LUC) is a major problem of land management in the context of rapid urbanization. Conflict identification plays an important role in the development and protection of land space. Considering the possibility of, exposure to, and negative impacts of LUC, we explore the probability of land-use cover change (LUCC), policy constraints, and ecosystem service value (ESV) and build a conflict identification model based on the LEC concept of risk assessment. Taking Daye City as an example, we classify the conflict intensity and delimit the key conflict areas. At the same time, a composite classification system is constructed to analyze the spatial characteristics and internal mechanism of conflict. We find that the conflict between construction and ecological space is the main conflict in Daye City (P.R. China), which is widely distributed. However, the conflict between construction and agricultural space, which is mainly distributed near the center of Daye City, cannot be ignored.

Automated summary

Land-use conflict is a significant issue in land management under rapid urbanization, with conflict identification being crucial. Taking Daye City as an example, the main conflict lies between construction and ecological space, while the conflict between construction and agricultural space is mainly concentrated near the city center.
