Landscape is increasingly characterized by a multifaced nature. In scientific literature and landscape governance, new landscape definitions are often coined to explain new meanings and to define specific intervention strategies and tools. The present study purposes a framework for the identification of hybrid landscapes as support for land-use planners, which aim to guarantee development opportunities as well as natural heritage preservation and valorization. “Marginal lands” were identified starting from EU Directives and scientific approaches, by means of multicriteria analysis. Different scenarios were built: (1) no-change; (2) energy crops; (3) green infrastructures. An ecosystem services approach, via landscape metrics analysis, was used to compare the possible effects of scenarios. About 20% of the study area, an internal area of the southern Apennines, was identified as suitable for land-use change in a medium-short time, and scenarios of land-use changes show a better condition, in terms of fragmentation, than as a current asset. Results showed the strategic role and potentialities of marginal lands, as a trade-off between nature conservation and development issues, suggesting new opportunities for green infrastructures and a renewable energies chain. The study allowed for deepening the close connection among landscape planning approaches, land use change scenarios building and environmental assessment, focused on the ex-ante evaluation stage.

识别边缘景观作为可持续发展的支持：意大利南部地区基于 GIS 的分析和景观指标评估

景观越来越具有多面性。在科学文献和景观治理中，新的景观定义经常被用来解释新的含义并定义具体的干预策略和工具。本研究旨在建立一个框架，用于识别混合景观作为土地利用规划者的支持，旨在保证发展机会以及自然遗产的保护和价值。从欧盟指令和科学方法出发，通过多标准分析确定了“边际土地”。构建了不同的场景：（1）不变；(2) 能源作物；(3)绿色基础设施。生态系统服务方法，通过景观指标分析，被用来比较情景的可能影响。约20%的研究区域，亚平宁山脉南部的一个内部区域被确定为适合在中短期内进行土地利用变化，并且土地利用变化的情景在碎片化方面显示出比作为流动资产更好的条件。结果显示了边缘土地的战略作用和潜力，作为自然保护和发展问题之间的权衡，为绿色基础设施和可再生能源链提供了新的机会。该研究允许深化景观规划方法、土地利用变化情景构建和环境评估之间的密切联系，重点是事前评估阶段。结果显示了边缘土地的战略作用和潜力，作为自然保护和发展问题之间的权衡，为绿色基础设施和可再生能源链提供了新的机会。该研究允许深化景观规划方法、土地利用变化情景构建和环境评估之间的密切联系，重点是事前评估阶段。结果显示了边缘土地的战略作用和潜力，作为自然保护和发展问题之间的权衡，为绿色基础设施和可再生能源链提供了新的机会。该研究允许深化景观规划方法、土地利用变化情景构建和环境评估之间的密切联系，重点是事前评估阶段。
