The Impact of Impervious Surface Expansion on Soil Organic Carbon: A Case Study of 0–300 cm Soil Layer in Guangzhou City

open access: yesSustainability, 2021
Empirical evidence shows that the expansion of impervious surface threatens soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration in urbanized areas. However, the understanding of deep soil excavation due to the vertical expansion of impervious surface remains limited.

Measuring spatio-temporal dynamics of impervious surface in Guangzhou, China, from 1988 to 2015, using time-series Landsat imagery

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2018
This study evaluated the spatio-temporal change characteristics of urban development at different scales with time-series impervious surface fractions. Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM) and Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) images were used to extract

Carbon Emissions from Global Impervious Surface Expansion between 1985 and 2020

Science of The Total Environment, 2023
Impervious surface expansion (ISE) refers to the phenomenon that natural surfaces are covered by artificial materials, such as cement, asphalt, bricks, etc., usually due to human activities. Over recent decades, the rapid growth of the global population, economic development, and continuous urbanization have contributed to extensive ISE, which caused ...

Extraction and Spatial-Temporal Analysis of Impervious Surfaces Expansion in Dianchi Lake Basin

2018 26th International Conference on Geoinformatics, 2018
With the development of economy, growth of population and urbanization, urban land is increasing and the speed of urban expansion is speeding up. Mastering the spatial-temporal process of urban expansion is of great significance for natural environment and human development.

Expansion of Urban Impervious Surfaces in Lahore (1993–2022) Based on Gee and Remote Sensing Data

Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, 2023
Impervious surfaces are an essential component of our environment and are mainly triggered by human developments. Rapid urbanization and population expansion have increased Lahore's urban impervious surface area. This research is based on estimating the urban imper- vious surface area ( uisa ) growth from 1993 to 2022.

Monitoring rapid urban expansion using a multi-temporal RGB-impervious surface model

Journal of Zhejiang University SCIENCE A, 2012
In this paper, we developed a novel method of combining remote sensing tools at the sub-pixel level for accurate identification of impervious surface time series changes. We examined the use of the red-green-blue impervious surface model (RGB-IS) in detecting time series internal modification of urban regions by integrating Landsat data collected over ...

Slowing the expansion of impervious surfaces: the key to promoting high-quality and sustainable regional development

Environmental Science and Pollution Research
Sponge cities are disaster-resilient and sustainable infrastructure, and the emergence of impervious surfaces hinders the construction of sponge cities. In response to the United Nations' 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, the study of the spatio-temporal evolution and influencing factors of impervious surfaces provides an effective basis for the ...

Behind the rapid expansion of urban impervious surfaces in China: Major influencing factors revealed by a hierarchical multiscale analysis

Land Use Policy, 2016
Urban impervious surfaces (UIS) are well known to have negative impacts on the environment. Studies that consider multiple UIS-influencing factors at multiple administrative levels and spatial scales are still lacking. The main goal of this study was to determine the major socioeconomic factors that shaped the spatiotemporal patterns of UIS in China ...
