Peter Verburg, Professor of Environmental Spatial Analysis and head of the Department Spatial Analysis and Decision Support at the Institute for
Environmental Studies, VU University Amsterdam, has completed the first bulk upload of 105 cases from a 2013 PLoS One global meta-analysis on drivers of wetland conversion using GLOBE Bulk Upload Template.
The cases represent a collection of 105 case-study papers used in a meta-analysis “describing wetland conversion…showing that different combinations of multiple-factor proximate causes, and underlying forces, drive wetland conversion” (van Asselen et al., 2013).
The collection of cases is publicly available online and minted with its own unique DOI for referencing purposes. For other users interested in conducting their own bulk upload of a large collection of case studies for use in Representativeness Analysis, please visit the bulk upload instructional page.
