-==== An agent architecture for simulating human behavior in environmental change models  ====+
  
  Besides humans and institutions are the major driver of environmental changes [Lambin, Turner et al. 2001; Parker, Berger et al. 2001], models which take in consideration their motivations and the way they take decisions or reason about the environment they are embedded are yet in a very early stage. Several agent theories [Wooldbridge, Jennings 1995] and architectures [Minar 1996; Swarm 2008; NetLogo 2008, Repast 2008] have been proposed on the literature. However, they were not designed for simulation of human or institutional activities in environmental systems. Therefore, they lack on meet the whole requirements of this application.   Besides humans and institutions are the major driver of environmental changes [Lambin, Turner et al. 2001; Parker, Berger et al. 2001], models which take in consideration their motivations and the way they take decisions or reason about the environment they are embedded are yet in a very early stage.

 Land changes are results from complex social and biophysical systems and their interactions (Turner et al., 1995). Such interactions result from processes that act on different hierarchical levels. At the global scale, the national and international commodities market (beef, grains and timber) drives demand for land change. This way, these changes cannot be adequately understood without knowing their linkages to decisions and structures made elsewhere. In this sense, understanding the role of networks is essential to understanding how to decide about the land use. Land changes are results from complex social and biophysical systems and their interactions (Turner et al., 1995).
