Characteristics in the geographical space (Figure3)
Characteristics in the environmental variable space (Figure4)
Name of thelandscape context
Light gray disks
Sites located very near the Comté river
Far from gold mining sites and unfragmented forest; close to floodplains, the Comté river and water (from remote sensing); low altitude and slope; long or medium lengths of Comté river banks within 200 m
Riparian area
Red triangles
Sites located on a plain, corresponding to a zone devoted to mixed vegetable gardening
Far from gold mining sites and unfragmented forest; close to buildings, water, basins and greenhouses; low proportion of forest; medium number of building; medium and high number of greenhouses
Market gardens
Yellow stars
Sites located on hills within a zone devoted to fruit culture
High altitude and slope, far from water, the Comté river, flood plains, greenhouses and basins; within 200 m: no buildings, greenhouses or basin; short lengths of roads; length of the Comté river null; high proportion of forest
Orchards
Blue diamonds
Isolated sites in non or slightly degraded forest
Shares the majority of Orchards landscape context features, but exhibits higher distances to buildings, shorter lengths of road within 200 m and lower distances to unfragmented forest
Forest
Black squares
Sites situated between the market gardens and the orchards
Difficult to characterize by interpreting the FAMG. Field observations tend to associate such a cluster with i) the presence of very degraded forest patches which are difficult to exploit because of swamps, or ii) numerous patches of fallowed land (4 years and older), corresponding to a stage of the crop rotation
