Popis: | 93 Land resource is restricted and scarce, in order to avoid developing in inadequate manner, the evolutionary process of the land-use change and the natural and artificial reasons should be considered to plan for the land-use plan. Meanwhile, land-use is the outcomes of the interaction between natural environment and human actions. The distributions of land-use reflect the decision behaviors and activity types on the inhabitation. The changes of land-use are affected by the results of the interaction of many factors, such as policies, economics, society, culture, natural environment and human behaviors. Consequently, to get over on the factors which affect the changes of land-use is facilitate to the interpretation of land-use decisions, at the same time, is conducive to know well about the attitudes of land-use decision makers. In other words, it is contributory to grasp the latent elements of land-use changes, and represent the holistic reality. This study builds the hierarchical framework and the interpreted model of land-use changes. The foundation theory is based on two dimensions, that is the dimension of environmental driving forces (the external factor), and the dimension of individual independent demands (the internal factor). In the aspect of operation, two phases of district level and site level is applied. At the district level, the model of urban land-use changes probes into the types of housing, commerce, and industry. At the site level, the individual choice based model of urban land-use changes to go into the types of housing and commerce. The outcomes of this study reveal the following conclusions. The varied land-use types are indeed affected by different factors at the district level. For instance, housing decision is influenced by the spatial interaction, and the commerce decision is affected by accessibility. Then, the interpretation of the model is enhanced by addition of the model of spatial expansion. Those models exhibit the characters of Tainan City perfectly. In the aspect of site level, the obvious variables are area, width of adjacent street, zone, age, occupation and income. However, those variables have different effect degree on housing and commerce. In addition, the variable of probability of land-use change, which is calculated by the district level, is as well as the obvious variable. It presents that the environmental driving forces affect decisions of an individual. It is concluded that the hierarchical framework of this study is practicable, and also help to understand the mechanism of land-use changes. |
