Divergent socioeconomic drivers of land use at various times in the Hulunber grassland area, China

The effects of socioeconomic changes on land use dynamics have been increasingly investigated around the world, but our knowledge of the processes underlying these effects over decades needs more attention for sustainable land management. In this research, structural equation modelling (SEM) was use...
