The questions and problems posed by the specialist teams (Air Quality, Biodiversity, Climate Change, Transport and Urban Sprawl) are based in an environmental framework, and the land-use model MOLAND is the engine room for producing possible outcomes and scenarios to aid visualisation and direct comparison of a selection of infrastructure developments at both regional and local scales.enUrban Environment Project (UEP)MOLAND modelLand useConference Publication2015-02-16https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ie/
