Spatial and temporal scales

Versie van 19 jan 2018 om 12:03

Competing spatial claims in delta's can be related to various spatial scales, for instance:

Local (production plot) scale: spatial concessions are given for production of specific species. This limits the possibilities for upscaling.
Regional (Water system) scale: water systems are used by different functions. Issues as carrying capacity (in ecological and other dimensions) are relevant
National / European scale: Existing spatial policy for near shore functions seems to be in a deadlock. There is no virtually no space to facilitate innovations in blue growth. Therefor there is a need for regime shift in policy and trying out new concepts for spatial planning.

Competing spatial claims in delta's also has various temporal scales, for instance:

Short term: finding short term solutions to overcome specific spatial conflicts in the framework of the existing spatial policy. Few stakeholders are involved in period of several months.
Developing and testing new concepts of spatial planning are likely to take more than a decade;
Implementing regime shift in spatial planning will take place in the course of decades

 Competing spatial claims in delta's also has various temporal scales, for instance:
-* Internal changes with few stakeholder can be done within several months or years;
+* Short term: finding short term solutions to overcome specific spatial conflicts in the framework of the existing spatial policy. Few stakeholders are  involved in period of  several months.
-* Changes involving spatial planning or even cross-border collaborations are likely to take more than a decade;
+* Developing and testing new concepts of spatial planning are likely to take more than a decade;
-* Water stress might increase as a result of climate change and increased salinization in the course of decades
+* Implementing regime shift in spatial planning will take place in the course of decades
