Monitoring Land-Use Dynamics in Romania’s Major Metropolitan Areas
Monitorización de las Dinámicas de Uso del Suelo en las Principales Áreas Metropolitanas de Rumanía

El estudio examina los cambios de usos del suelo en las siete áreas metropolitanas más importantes de Rumanía entre los años 2000 y 2018. Se han analizado las tendencias y sus respectivos determinantes a nivel nacional. Para el análisis multitemporal se emplearon herramientas SIG que permitieron rastrear los cambios en las categorías de uso del suelo artificial, agrícola y natural. A fin de aumentar la precisión, también se usaron imágenes de satélite de alta resolución y métodos de reclasificación que proporcionaron resultados más fiables. Se vincularon los resultados detectados con datos demográficos con el fin de evidenciar las dinámicas de presión poblacional, crecimiento económico y desarrollo de infraestructura. Al identificar las causas comunes de los cambios en el uso del suelo, se presentaron, por un lado, las principales tendencias generales y, por otro lado, las particularidades territoriales y socioeconómicas locales. Los resultados reflejan las dificultades a las que se enfrenta el país a raíz del aumento de la suburbanización y la fragmentación del uso del suelo e ilustran la necesidad de aplicar métodos de planificación urbana adaptados a cada contexto.
