Cultural Landscape Adaptation

Chapter 1
Cultural Landscape: An Evaluation From Past to Present....................................................................... 1
Funda Varnaci Uzun, Aksaray University, Turkey
Mehmet Somuncu, Ankara University, Turkey

The “cultural landscape” has been a fundamental concept in geography and was first defined as “landscape
modified by human activity” by the German geographer Friedrich Ratzel in 1890. It was introduced to
American geography in the 1920s by Carl O. Sauer (American geographer). Since the 1960s, the concept
has been widely used in human geography, anthropology, environmental management, and other related
fields. One of the major factors that contributed to the recent popularity of its use, on a global scale, was
the adoption of cultural landscapes in the International Convention for the World Heritage Convention
by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1992. In this
chapter, the basis of this concept, its emergence, and its relationships with other scientific disciplines,
particularly geography, will be discussed. Moreover, the place of cultural landscapes within protected
areas and UNESCO world heritage sites will be more specifically addressed.

Chapter 2
Indigenous Cultural Knowledge for Therapeutic Landscape Design.................................................... 28
Jacqueline McIntosh, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
Bruno Marques, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
William Hatton, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand

The meanings of place and the relationship between place and health have culturally specific dimensions.
This is of particular importance for indigenous people and communities as often regarding landscape
as part of a circle of life, establishing a holistic perspective about health and wellbeing. The indigenous
Māori of Aotearoa/New Zealand contend that their relationship with the land shapes how the cultural,
spiritual, emotional, physical, and social wellbeing of people and communities are expressed. Few studies




have explored the influence of the cultural beliefs and values on health, in particular the intricate link
between land and health. This chapter broadens the understanding of therapeutic landscapes through the
exploration of specific cultural dimensions. It contributes to the expanding body of research focusing
on the role of therapeutic landscapes and their role in shaping health, through the development of new
research methods.

Chapter 3
Fighting for Existence and Recognition Among Sub-Dynasty Communities: A Case Study of the
Nerumedzo People in Zimbabwe........................................................................................................... 53
Tinashe Bobo, Hello Project Developers, Zimbabwe
Herbert Nechena, Government of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe

The central focus of this chapter is to discuss the way sub-dynasties create new identities and culture
quite different from their original-root-dynasties. The study case is related to the Nerumedzo people
who have proven to be a sub-dynasty of the Karanga Duma of Bikita district. The literature highlights
that the Nerumedzo people originated from a branch of the Duma Confederacy and have created through
time their own new identity, which is based on their culture in a bid to fight for their existence in the
Duma community and their alignment with the landscape (which includes their physical geography
and insects and the use of identity markers like naming and totems). Their tradition was marked by the
birth of Nemeso (who was born double-faced and, for this reason, rejected by his father Pfupajena), the
Nerumedzo progenitor. The rejection of the mysterious Nemeso meant a death threat. Therefore, his
mother fled with him to her own people with whom he grew up. From a foreign country, he returned to
his father who gave him land in the Duma confines of Bikita, where it became the base of his identity.

Chapter 4
In Search of a Lost Authenticity: Tourism, Renaturation, and City – The Case of the Tagus 
Estuary................................................................................................................................................... 72
Margarida Louro, University of Lisbon, Portugal
Francisco Oliveira, University of Lisbon, Portugal

Through a historical description of the human occupation of Lisbon since the twelfth century BC and
its reorganization around the natural presence of the estuary of the river Tagus, this chapter explores
concepts like tourism, naturalization, and city. In this sense, the chapter made a critical perspective on the
changes occurred in the last years, discussing the contemporary contingency of competitiveness and urban
places transformation related to sustainability and tourism pressure in the revaluation of centralities. This
can be considered an awareness of the need to reflect on a kind of search for the loss of its authenticity.

Chapter 5
Time Operations..................................................................................................................................... 90
Cidália Ferreira Silva, University of Minho, Portugal

This chapter proposes four time operations—gleaning, grounding, stimulating, and transmuting—for
practicing time within architecture as an expanded field. By exploring the relationships between the
future-past-present through folded time as coexistence and lived time, these time operations unfold the


ways to make interprojects for cultural landscape adaptability. First, the background that supports this
research is presented, namely, why is it relevant and the main references with which this path was made
concrete. Second, the meaning of time is defined as a way to understand what time practice is being
deepened. Third, each operation is explored by describing the main features and procedures pertaining to
gleaning, grounding, stimulating, and transmuting. Fourth, the chapter discussion continues by revealing
the relationships between the operations, namely moving beyond the expected linear succession. The
chapter concludes with a hypothesis of further future development as well as the main conclusion and
key terms.

Chapter 6
The Power of Monsanto’s Stone: Contribution to the Study of the Sustainable Adaptative
Strategies.............................................................................................................................................. 122
José Manuel Afonso, University of Lisbon, Portugal

There is no point in rushing because, in fact, people are going nowhere in particular. No matter how
arduous the observation, in a slow and difficult sequence, people are always in the same place: in the
countryside. There, people were yesterday and will be tomorrow. The landscape is a singularity with no
limits: each tree, each granite boulder, each course presents infinite perspectives indistinguishable from
each other. Sustainable landscape will be a mandatory topic in the twenty-first century and will influence
the interventions in open spaces. These new paradigms will allow a healthier environment, where the
relation of architecture and environmental comfort is present. In this sense, the chapter addresses aspects
of the environment in its relationship with living culture; studies construction techniques with a lower
environmental impact; and develops adaptative strategies of “sustainable project” for ordering and
appropriation of habitable space according to the principles of cultural, economic, and environmental
preservation.

Chapter 7
Industrial Heritage as an Operative Territorial Resource: Cultural Landscape of Alentejo Pyrite..... 153
Marta Duarte Oliveira, University of Lisbon, Portugal
Jorge Tavares Ribeiro, University of Lisbon, Portugal

This chapter addresses the main existing issues concerning industrial heritage as a territorial resource
for the revitalization or valorization of functional landscapes (former or existing). It addresses the
conceptual framework of cultural landscape and its possibility as a “horizon concept,” as well as an
object of intervention according to a territorial dimension. The proposal of “Cultural Landscape of
Alentejo Pyrite” based on three mining sites—Lousal, Aljustrel, and São Domingos within the Iberian
Pyrite—was designed to be a territorial project for mining landscapes. This is a previous response to an
existing demand for operative methodologies that can convey a new paradigm of territorial planning,
with emphasis on interdisciplinary and prospect views. It provides a voice to an architectural and urban
planning point of view to these particular landscapes.

Methods and Tools for Landscape Assessment

Chapter 8
Assessing Urban Ecosystem Services: Different Methodological Approaches Applied in Brazil,
Germany, and Portugal......................................................................................................................... 183
Marise Barreiros Horta, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil
Maria Inês Cabral, Martin Luther University, Germany & iDiv, Germany
Iva Pires, Nova University of Lisbon, Portugal

Ana Luz, Nova University of Lisbon, Portugal
Geraldo Wilson Fernandes, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil
Maria Auxiliadora Drumond, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil
Sónia Carvalho-Ribeiro, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil

By integrating social, ecological, and economic perspectives, the assessment of ecosystem services (ES)
provides valuable information for better targeting landscape planning and governance. This chapter
summarizes different participatory approaches for assessing ES in urban areas of three countries. In
Belo Horizonte (Brazil), a conceptual framework for the vacant lots ES assessment is presented as an
attempt to integrate landscape, social, and political dimensions. In Leipzig (Germany), a combination
of site surveys, interviews, and remote sensing provides a valuable data set that fostered a comparative
study between two forms of urban gardening. In Lisbon (Portugal), the study is based on interviews that
offer a social insight into the horticultural parks situation, which in turn demands a better dialogue with
the municipality. In general, the studies demonstrate the potential benefits of utilizing the ES assessment
approaches on urban landscapes, especially for better understanding the interactions between people and
nature in urban sites.

Chapter 9
A Novel Approach to Studying Cultural Landscapes at the Watershed Level.................................... 221
Carlos José Lopes Balsas, University at Albany (SUNY), USA

Watersheds are natural-ecological regions characterized by a strong sense of unity. In contrast to the
current administrative jurisdictions, watersheds form natural units guided by common hydrological,
climatic, and, increasingly, cultural landscape planning mechanisms. The main purpose of this chapter
is to shed light on a novel approach to using watersheds to inventory, preserve, and promote cultural
landscape resources. The Hudson River region of New York (USA) is examined to assess the formation,
evolution, and preservation of cultural landscape resources between New York City (south) and the state
capital, Albany (north). It includes mixed methods, combining literature reviews on regional planning,
professional practice, and multi-scalar governance with selected case study analysis and the assessment
of policy priorities. The significance of this research is in the application of a novel cultural landscape
resources planning approach to the study of the Hudson River region of New York.


Chapter 10
Contemporary Urbanizations in Public Water Reservoirs: Floating Villages of Alqueva
Reservoir............................................................................................................................................. 249
Hélder Caeiro Amador, University of Lisbon, Portugal

The most important tourism projects since 2005 in Portugal, privately owned and with European
funds, were integrated resorts, mostly located in public water reservoirs, as a result of urban policies to
encourage the human occupation of the most interior desertified areas. The Alqueva reservoir, although
with no visible results, is an emerging paradigm of urban expansion planned for tourism in these areas.
This chapter intends to show the importance of the tourism reservoirs, lost with the economic recession,
through an analysis of its territorial management tools and a re-focus on innovative urban regeneration
and expansion models, using water as a central element of its development.

Chapter 11
The Role of Landscape in the Representation of Portuguese Wine Producing Regions..................... 276
Ana Lavrador, Nova University of Lisbon, Portugal & University of Lisbon, Portugal
Jorge Rocha, University of Lisbon, Portugal

This chapter analyzes the landscape role in the promotion of wine and tourism of the five most emblematic
Portuguese winegrowing regions. The use of landscape in promotional images strengthens the regional
identity, becoming a value-added component for wine marketing and tourism destination. Both have great
significance in enhancing the growth of winegrowing regions. The global economy and mechanization
of viticulture operations tend to simplify and specialize land-use vine parcels, particularly in areas of
sustainable large wine production, according to European Union rules. This research implemented an
innovative and integrative approach that represents and focuses on the promotional features of producers,
tourism, and their official bodies. Selected images were sorted into landscape, trademark, and tourism
categories, and evaluated via Cohen’s textual model, followed by a multiple correspondence factorial
analysis. The results showed a hierarchy of categories and variables consistent with their expression in
promotional features.

Chapter 12
Alternative Tool for an Integrative Landscape Interpretation: Case Study of the Arrábida
Maritime Coast, Portugal..................................................................................................................... 299
Ricardo Ribeiro, University of Lisbon, Portugal
Joana Corte Lopes, University of Lisbon, Portugal
François Boucault, École Nationale Supérieure d’ Architecture de Nantes, France

This chapter aims to describe an alternative tool developed to represent the interdependence established
in the landscape between the human activities and the capacity of natural resources to answer for their
needs. Therefore, focused on a case study of the Arrábida Maritime Coast located in Portugal, the research
not only allowed to analyze the ecological and cultural landscape components but also to diagnose
its resilience to the human activities. In this sense, considering the functional limits of the current
cartographic representation models, it was also necessary to set up a new complementary diagrammatic
model to show how the landscape interdependences are established. Despite their complex scientific data
calculation nature associated with the geoprocessing techniques to connect both representation models,
this alternative tool has integrative and intuitive interpretation features, by which it is possible to know
the landscape suitability to support new land uses and land covers.


Chapter 13
Construction Information Map: Support for Sustainable Architecture Projects in Developing
Countries – Angola Case Study........................................................................................................... 323
Júlio Londrim Baptista, University of Beira Interior, Portugal
Jorge Tavares Ribeiro, University of Lisbon, Portugal
Cristina Delgado Henriques, University of Lisbon, Portugal

All developing countries face a construction and serious housing problem, with deep economic and social
consequences in the landscape. Promoting and implementing effective and rapid initiatives in rural areas to
attract the population and keep them in their places of origin can solve this problem endorsing a reduction
of the migration to urban areas. A digital research tool was developed with the purpose of illustrating
the compatibility of local natural materials with global industrial technology, creating conditions for the
development of versatile and locally sustainable building systems in rural areas of Angola. As a product
of this research, a new map with construction information serves as a guiding database to support the
sustainable architecture and construction project, which flexible structure allowing it to be used (with
appropriate adaptation) in other developing countries.

Chapter 14
Models, Methods, and Metrics to Measure Socioeconomic Resilience: Two Portuguese Urban
Systems as Case Studies...................................................................................................................... 346
Carlos Gonçalves, University of Lisbon, Portugal

This chapter aims to discuss concepts and methods to measure the landscape resilience of urban systems
and test the indicators framework in the Portuguese regional context. The objective is to measure the
performance and the direction of the urban changes in different phenomena, as well as to evaluate the
level of urban systems preparation for a desired and undesired change adaptability. The approach to
these issues is analyzed in the literature, dividing the aforementioned analysis into the resilience of the
economic base, of the social structure, and of the urban form. In brief, the chapter meets three objectives:
firstly, defining the framework of principles more commonly associated with urban resilience; secondly,
providing a selection of indicators that embodies the different proposals of measurement; and thirdly,
applying the indicator matrix to two Portuguese case studies (Caldas da Rainha and Évora urban systems).

Chapter 15
City Landscape: Confluence Between Ecological Conditions and Urban Morphology in the City
of Lisbon.............................................................................................................................................. 368
Ana Cristina Lourenço, University of Lisbon, Portugal

This chapter aims to describe the urban morphology of the city of Lisbon within its identity creation
process throughout time, according to an ecological condition approach. Based on a new landscape
interpretation model, it aims to contribute to a better understanding of the current sustainability issues of
the urban landscape (as a system of systems), following an interrelated analysis of the confluence between
how it functions ecologically and human occupation processes. It is, therefore, a useful contribution to
spatial planning decisions and policies transposed into territorial management tools, particularly with
regard to urban ecosystem services: improved urban life and the introduction of positive elements that
are economically measurable for better management of the city and reduced risk.


Chapter 16
Urban Landscape Quality Management and Monitoring: A Methodological Proposal to Study the
Case of Porto, Portugal........................................................................................................................ 396
Isabel Vaz de Freitas, Portucalense University, Portugal
Jorge Marques, Portucalense University, Portugal
Carlos Augusto Rodrigues, Portucalense University, Portugal
Cristina Sousa, Portucalense University, Portugal

The issue of the landscape quality or, more precisely, of its goal was addressed in the European Landscape
Convention in 2000 to guide the public authorities and the aspirations of the population concerning their
characteristics. It also happens regarding the landscape management that leads the authors to a sustainable
development preservation, orientating and conciliating the changes that result from the human interaction
with the environment. For a research on urban landscapes management, it is proposed a methodological
analysis to the case study of Porto (Portugal) with a historical approach to understand how the increasing
pressure of tourism is manifested on its image. The main goal is to identify the quality of the landscape
and guide its sustainability towards a constant monitoring of images perception.

Chapter 17
An Ecological Assessment Analysis: The Kanlidere River in North Cyprus...................................... 414
Gökçen Firdevs Yücel, Istanbul Aydın University, Turkey
Bilge Işık, Istanbul Aydın University, Turkey
Nevter Zafer Cömert, Eastern Mediterranean University, Northern Cyprus

This chapter analyzes the case study of Kanlidere watershed in Cyprus to explore a potential “reintroducing”
of the river to its surrounding residential communities (and, on a broader level, to society), in an effective
protection and restoration approach of the environment. The Kanlidere (Pedios) is Cyprus’ longest river
where its watershed has considerable importance for the environmental sustainability of Northern Cyprus.
There has been waste, vegetation, and other materials accumulated in the riverbed over many years of
neglect, which led to thick vegetation growth and water pooling. This chapter examines the site in order
to preserve its overall ecological health, facilitating the improvement of the communities in the future.

Chapter 18
The Cycles of Impermanent Alterity in Nazaré................................................................................... 434
Cidália Ferreira Silva, University of Minho, Portugal
Marisa Carvalho Fernandes, University of Minho, Portugal

What happens when a small city expands from 15,000 to 100,000 inhabitants in the summertime? How
do temporary inhabitants of Nazaré (Portugal) change the rhythms of its everyday life? How does large-
scale tourism change their supporting economic activities or even replace activities such as fishing?
Is this seemingly rigid urban fabric elastic enough to expand and adapt to these exponential “others”?
The “impermanent alterity” explains the result of the relationship established between land and water,
between the “I” and the “other” that come to Nazaré to step onto the warm sand during the summer days.
There is a visible cycle of summer-winter change, which the network of lived time interconnections can
be found in simple things like the gray pavement line organizing uses, as a device that adapts matter to
the cycles of change. Time is the operator of this “impermanent alterity,” and the residents and outsiders
alike make it visible.

Foreword

Mankind is increasing its presence throughout the Earth’s surface, changing its appearance and ecologi-
cal functioning. These changes are happening at an unprecedented rate and scale, and in such an extent
that many authors and scientists argue that there is not a square inch of the terrestrial surface which has
not been changed, directly or indirectly, by human activity. In 2005, the authors state in a book entitled
‘Global Change and the Earth System’ that: “Half of Earth’s land surface has been domesticated for
direct human use and nearly all of it is managed by humans in one way or another” (Steffen & Eliott,
2005, p. 2). The planet’s Natural Landscapes are shrinking and being replaced by Cultural Landscapes.
Although it has been around for quite some time, the concept of Cultural Landscape is still very
diverse in meaning, which may hinder or difficult its use. Conversely, this may also serve as a reason to
promote its discussion, through an interdisciplinary approach and considering the multiple objectives
it may serve. This is the perfect example of a concept that needs to be addressed by a broad range of
specialists, serving as a linkage point between the different perspectives and sensibilities, as well as pro-
moting the opportunities for collaboration in research. Crossing perspectives coming from distant fields
of knowledge (such as Ecology, Social Sciences, Health Sciences, Landscape Planning and Management)
is a big challenge, but one that is worth pursuing. Initiatives such as the European Landscape Conven-
tion, prepared over one and a half decades ago, defied the scientific community to further co-operate
in the provision of technical and scientific assistance through exchanges of experience and results of
mutual research projects in landscape matters. The study of cultural landscapes is surely one such matter.
This Handbook brings significant contributions to this discussion, both in the field of the conceptual
discussions presented in the its first part – Cultural Landscape Adaptation – as in the development of
assessment tools and other applied study methodologies, like the ones presented in the second part of
the book – Methods and Tools for Landscape Assessment – covering a wide range of study cases and
perspectives. May this book appeal to a wide variety of researchers and scholars and bring them together
with the aim of advancing knowledge on cultural landscape studies, as all society expects and desires.

Preface

CULTURAL LANDSCAPE ADAPTATION

The landscape is a cultural expression of the communities’ existence in the world, a representation of
the relationship that the human being established with the ecological systems.
The cultural landscape concept comes from the experience of human beings who were always fasci-
nated with their natural surroundings. For this reason, humankind has always chosen privileged sites to
settle, by combining the selection and contemplation of the places that fit their way of living. The fairly
recent origin of this concept (related to the Renaissance pictoric movements) emerged to describe a new
vision of the world related to the representation of natural places, or parts of the territory occupied and
transformed by communities, implying a delimitation, a new image of the surrounding space.
Hence, the main thing that gives a current relevance to the cultural landscape concept is that it involves
a relationship: between a physical space that supports living systems; and the existence of someone that
contemplates, represents, and transforms it by giving it a new meaning. This is how the meaning of
landscape reaches a cultural approach: by interpreting it as a way of assigning a meaning to a place in
its various dimensions, especially the signs that are left on the land.
Nowadays, having to adequate visions and development strategies that respect simultaneously the
ecological systems and the cultural diversity of the communities that inhabit a certain territory, the
landscape goes beyond a concept and is now considered a discipline, supporting integrative ways of
inhabiting the territory. Furthermore, thinking of promoting an integrative assessment of the landscape
resilience, a cultural adaptation process can include ways of understanding its dynamic changes over
time, finding alternative tools of analysis and collective methods of governance supported by a multi-
disciplinary scientific research work.

LANDBOOK OF RESEARCH

A Handbook of Research is a manual that provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-art research


methods and applications currently in use, in the most diverse scientific areas. It is structured to highlight
recent trends in a focused research, combining theory and methodology (qualitative and quantitative)
and offers insights into the major approaches. The organized chapters in a handbook should be written
by several international contributors around the world, all leading experts in their research areas. Aca-
demicians and researchers can greatly benefit from the informed abstracts and conclusions.


Preface

In this sense, a new handbook about Landscape - a Landbook - should be based on the problem’s
global knowledge, as well as the principles for a sustainable intervention on the territory according to the
cultural landscape approach described above: assuming that a territory results from the needs to establish
human activities that lead to the landscape transformation (for example, agriculture and urbanization) by
a given community, thus reflecting an interdependent relationship with the surrounding natural resources.
The relationship dynamic through time meant the spatialization of different ways of living that could be
more or less close to the sustainable management of the natural resources.
Nowadays, the sustainable management of the natural resources is addressed as a fundamental concern
in human action, extending its influence to the main society organizations and governance institutions,
and crossing multiple fields of scientific knowledge to lead resource management to a broad sense (in-
cluding food production, blue and green infrastructures, urbanization, or cultural heritage).
Therefore, the research project “Pro-Villages. Repopulate the Countryside” carried out by the Sus-
tenta’s team of the Research Centre for Architecture, Urbanism, and Design (CIAUD), at the University
of Lisbon, Faculty of Architecture intends to develop an integrated landscape interpretation methodol-
ogy with a participatory cultural approach to create basic conditions (in the Environment, Territory, and
Population scientific areas) for the repopulation of a set of Portuguese villages.
In this sense, IGI Global invited Professor Isabel de Sousa Rosa, coordinator of the “Pro-Villages”
research project, to edit a new landbook with a compilation of integrated interpretation methods and
tools of the landscape according to a cultural approach, which is here presented Handbook of Research
on Methods and Tools for Assessing Cultural Landscape Adaptation.

Sustenta and IGI Global

Sustenta - Laboratory for Sustainable Design is a research group from the University of Lisbon, Faculty
of Architecture (FA-ULisboa) in Portugal, supported by the Research Centre for Architecture, Urbanism,
and Design (CIAUD) since 2012.
Its main goal is to develop projects, studies or any research/training activities in the area of Eco-
architecture, developing methodologies for sustainable intervention, not only on traditional building
techniques supported by new technologies, low-cost self-design, and heritage rehabilitation but also on
territory planning based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Also, Sustenta promotes methodolo-
gies of Sustainable Design for territory intervention, as an alternative to current production practices and
economic consumption, based on landscape dynamics studies regarding human occupation, land-uses,
and resource consumptions, by diagnosing their future impacts.
Some of the Sustenta’s projects about Landscape, developed with a multidisciplinary team, include:
“Potential Land-Use Ecological Plan” that considered the ecological land suitability for the establish-
ment of different activities and the current land use; “Self-Sufficient Architecture. Sustainable Monas-
tery Project” that ensured the development of an architecture project which complies several specialties
for the implementation of materials and construction systems with high environmental value and low
consumption energy (according to the principles of “natural architecture”); and “Sea Architectures
Project” that intended to clarify (in an ecological, economic and, social viewpoint) the nature of the
changes that the Portuguese coastal territory (particularly in Arrábida Maritime Coast and the Eastern

Algarve Coast), to present an analysis and diagnosis model, that serves as a basis for a set of proposals
to achieve an integrated territory’s intervention in various levels (such as its uses, landscape framing,
and architectural rehabilitation.
IGI Global is an international academic publisher specialized in the publication of numerous books,
journals, encyclopedias, research handbooks, and focused on the areas of computer science and informa-
tion technology, educational science and technology, engineering science and technology, environmental
science and technology, and others. It must also be taken into account the highest quality of its publi-
cations, which have scientific recognition in some prestigious indices (more specifically in SCOPUS,
Thomson Reuters, INSPEC, ACM and Compendex).

Landbook Selection and Evaluation Process

According to the IGI Global guidelines, the Sustenta editors team (editor-in-chief, associate, and aux-
iliary editors) was responsible for the organization, disclosure, and preparation of the Landbook. Its
development process was divided into three phases that were performed during the year of 2017, and
to be published in 2018.
During phase 1, the Call for Chapters started a dissemination process to the scientific community,
to inform them about the Landbook’s objectives, the target audience, and the submission procedures.
Also, a new web page was designed on Sustenta – Laboratory for Sustainable Design’s website (http://
sustenta.fa.ulisboa.pt/landbook), and posted on its Linkedin page (https://www.linkedin.com/company/
sustenta---laboratório-de-projecto-sustentável).
An Editorial Advisory Board (EAB) was invited to ensure the feasibility and the selection of the
proposed chapters through a double-blind peer-review process, which evaluation was described and sent
to the authors through IGI Global’s Editorial Discovery platform.
In the same way, for phase 2 the authors submitted their full chapters, each one subsequently evalu-
ated by two peer reviewers, the same ones that evaluated the chapter proposals in phase 1. After the
end of the Review Process, the editor’s team prepared the Full Chapter revisions, its comments, and the
documents with the reviewers’ comments, through the platform, later notifying the authors.
In phase 3, the revised chapters were submitted by the authors to the last time revision process, and
the editor’s team started a verification process relating the spelling and grammar correction (focused
on the IGI Global copy editing and proofreading rules). The team also tried to ensure that the authors
considered the comments and alterations previously provided by the reviewers, to guarantee the quality
of the final manuscript.

Landbook Contents and Structure

The final compilation of 18 chapters in a unique Landbook – with examples of interdisciplinary coop-
eration and collaborative research work (within the environmental and humanistic social sciences, plan-
ning, and heritage conservation), bringing together multifaceted cultural landscape approaches – can be
useful to professionals not only as academics, but also as practitioners and stakeholders that collaborate
within universities, research centers, and other (governmental or nongovernmental) organizations and
local infrastructures.

xxiii
Preface

The presented result provides a contemporary framework for addressing innovative methods and
tools, according to social, economic, and political facts, as well as the ecological conditions to set future
planning and management strategies for the emergent landscapes. The chapters critically explore how
the interpretation, relation or representation of the landscape can contribute to increasing the innovative
and multidisciplinary knowledge of its cultural expression.
According to a holistic landscape understanding and integrative approach (having, as a whole, an
exclusively cultural substantiation), the Landbook’s structure sets off with the chapters focused mainly
on a conceptual view of the landscape, followed by the chapters with a methodological landscape ap-
proach. For this reason, considering its full title, section 1 is called Cultural Landscape Adaptation and
section 2 Methods and Tools for Landscape Assessment.
The reader can follow each part according to four main topics in this order:

• Architecture/Heritage/Culture (Cultural Landscape Assessment, Heritage Values Recognition,


Sustainable Adaptative Strategies) and Sociology/Philosophy (Socio-ecological Resilience) are
addressed in the first part;
• Analysis Tools/Planning (Urban and/or Rural Settlement Analysis, Integrated Landscape
Management) and Digital Tools (such as Geographic Information Systems) in the second part.

These topics’ sequence – which was, from the beginning, the same for the proposed chapters’ submis-
sion phase and their evaluation process – is a guideline for the Lanbook’s readout.

1. Cultural Landscape Adaptation (Chapters 1 – 7)

The first set of chapters seeks to describe the concept of landscape relating its identity value, through a
process that comes from the cultural recognition of the capacity that natural resources have to respond
to human needs, whose cultural expression and heritage evaluation are made, above all, symbolically.
Associated with the cultural approach, these chapters are related to the landscape resilience as the bio-
physical systems potential to restore the balance in the dynamics transformation after an external human
action. Based on a theoretical description of the processes of cultural adaptation (physical and symbolic)
that communities practice in the environment, the last chapters of this part attempt to describe potential
landscape assessment systems, depending on social circumstances and ecological conditions and, with
that, to draw up a set of integrated conservation strategies.

2. Methods and Tools for Landscape Assessment (Chapters 8 – 18)

In a more practical approach, and mostly substantiated by case studies (yet largely based on a theoretical
grounds), the chapters of the second part present a methodological description of processes, models,
and methods of interpretation, representation, and cultural assessment of the landscape. Nevertheless,
the first set of chapters has an approach focused on the critical description of the landscape manage-
ment and its planning instruments, while the remaining describe potential tools for the transformation
processes’ analysis and diagnosis in their various approach scales, some being more related to rural
areas and others to urban ones.

xxiv
Preface

A brief description for each of the eighteen chapters follows:


Chapter 1 – Cultural Landscape: An Evaluation from Past to Present – starts by describing the basis
of the Cultural Landscape concept, its emergence, and its relationships with other scientific disciplines.
The authors of this chapter begin with the definition presented in 1890 by the German geographer
Friedrich Ratzel, continued, among others, by the American geographer Carl O. Sauer (1920), until
the International Convention for the World Heritage Convention by the United Nations Educational,
Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), dated as of 1992.
Chapter 2 – Indigenous Cultural Knowledge for Therapeutic Landscape Design – addresses the is-
sue of the cultural adaptation process relating the relationship established between the place, health and
culture of the indigenous Māori tribe (located in New Zealand) in a holistic perspective, focused on the
role of their therapeutic landscapes.
Chapter 3 – Fighting for Existence and Recognition Among Sub-Dynasty Communities: A Case Study
of the Nerumedzo People in Zimbabwe – is a chapter full of environmental and social symbolism that
follows the previous chapter, by analyzing the way Karanga Duma sub-dynasty (located in Zimbabwe)
creates new identities, as well as a culture quite different from their original-root-dynasties.
Chapter 4 – In Search of a Lost Authenticity: Tourism, Renaturation, and City - the Case of the Tagus
Estuary – takes a critical perspective on the loss of authenticity occurred in the Tagus Estuary – which
occurred in the form of a cultural landscape transformation caused by the tourism pressure – by discuss-
ing the contemporary contingency of competitiveness related to urban sustainability issues.
Chapter 5 – Time Operations – discourses about the subject “time” in the architectural field (Gleaning,
Grounding, Stimulating and Transmuting), and how these operations – sedimenting the past, crossing
the present, and proposing the future – are determinant to the management of inter-projects in a cultural
landscape approach.
Chapter 6 – The Power of Monsanto’s Stone: Contribution to the Study of the Sustainable Adaptative
Strategies in Landscape Change – substantiates the cultural landscape adaptation process for ordering a
habitable space, according to new adaptive strategies of ‘sustainable project’ based on cultural, economic,
and environmental preservation principles.
Chapter 7 – Industrial Heritage as an Operative Territorial Resource: Cultural Landscape of Alentejo
Pyrite – provides an architectural and urban planning requalification approach of industrial heritage, by
understanding the cultural landscape as a simultaneous conceptual framework and intervention object.
Chapter 8 – Assessing Urban Ecosystem Services - Different Methodological Approaches Applied in
Brazil, Germany, and Portugal – summarizes different participatory approaches for assessing Ecosystem
Services (designated as the benefits people obtain from nature) in a cultural landscape dimension, by
understanding the interactions established between people and nature in urban sites.
Chapter 9 – A Novel Approach to Studying Cultural Landscapes at The Watershed Level – aims to
shed light on a novel approach of watersheds regional planning, by using mixed methods (in multi-scalar
governance) and policies to inventory, preserve, and promote their cultural landscape resources.
Chapter 10 – Contemporary Urbanizations in Public Water Reservoirs: Floating Villages of Alqueva
Reservoir – describes the territorial management tools related to the water reservoir of Alqueva (located
in Portugal), focused on innovative urban occupation models with a touristic approach, through the
understanding of what marks the identity of those places and what makes them authentic.

Preface

Chapter 11 – The Role of Landscape in the Representation of Portugal Mainland Wine Producing
Regions – analyzes the cultural landscape role in the promotion of wine and tourism on the five most
emblematic Portuguese winegrowing regions, being an innovative and integrative approach focused on
its producers and official bodies.
Chapter 12 – Alternative Tool for an Integrative Landscape Interpretation: Case Study of the Arrá-
bida Maritime Coast, Portugal – aims to describe an alternative tool to represent (in a cartographic and
diagrammatic way) the interdependence established between the human activities and the capacity for
the natural resources to answer their needs, in the Arrábida Maritime Coast (Portugal).
Chapter 13 – Construction Information Map: Support for Sustainable Architecture Projects in De-
veloping Countries. Angola Case Study – describes the purpose of a digital research tool (presented in
map form) to identify the suitability of local natural resources and the global industrial technology, as a
support to develop versatile and local sustainable building systems on rural areas in Angola.
Chapter 14 – Models, Methods, and Metrics to Measure Socioeconomic Resilience: Two Portuguese
Urban Systems as Case-Studies – addresses the issues of landscape resilience, in order to build models,
methods, and metrics that can measure the performance and the direction of the urban systems (Caldas
da Rainha and Évora study cases) in different phenomena, as well as evaluate the level of its preparation
for a desired and undesired change adaptability.
Chapter 15 – City Landscape: Confluence Between Ecological Conditions and Urban Morphology
in the City of Lisbon – aims to describe the urban morphology of the city of Lisbon, based on an inter-
related analysis of the confluence established between landscape ecological functioning and the human
occupation processes, portrayed through time.
Chapter 16 – Urban Landscape Quality Management and Monitoring: A Methodological Proposal
to Study the Case of Porto, Portugal – proposes a methodological analysis of the case study of Oporto
(Portugal) with a historical approach, by which it will be able to understand how the increasing tourism
pressure is manifested on the landscape, towards a constant monitoring of its image perception.
Chapter 17 – An Ecological Assessment Analysis: The Kanlidere River in North Cyprus – analyzes
the case study of Kanlidere watershed (Cyprus) to explore the potential ‘reintroducing’ of the river to its
surrounding residential communities, in an effective protection and restoration process of the landscape,
as a cultural adaptation that can ensure its overall ecological health in the future.
Chapter 18 – The Cycles of Impermanent Alterity in Nazaré – describes the influence of tourism
(as an economic activity) – visible in a time cycle related to the summer-winter changes – as a cultural
landscape adaptation process occurred in the small coastal village of Nazaré (located in Portugal).
Concluding, this Landbook offers a platform for international authorship of different research works
under a set of common issues and concepts, by gathering information that is mostly scattered across
publications and in risk of losing its dissemination impact. Being a subject under such attention on so
many research fields (such as architecture, landscape architecture, anthropology, history, sociology,
ecology, etc.), it becomes essential to address its concerns in the context of global change in different
environments. Moreover, a common view based on a holistic and integrated interpretation approach al-
lows to set up a synthesized framework for the various tools and methodologies of the cultural landscape
adaptation processes. However, at the same time, it is a view flexible enough to add different layers of
knowledge, focused on the most current methodologies and tools in the cultural landscape research.
