Landscape Pattern Evolution and Its Response to Human Disturbance in a Newly Metropolitan Area: A Case Study in Jin-Yi Metropolitan Area

open access: yesLand, 2021
The impact of human interference on the ecological environment has attracted a significant amount of attention. In this study, hemeroby index (HI) was constructed to quantify the degree of human disturbance, and the relationship between HI and landscape ...

Research on the Coastal Landscape Pattern Index in the District of Nansha

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
The regional ecological security and sustainable development are impacted by the changing terrain pattern. It is important to investigate the temporal and spatial shifts in coastal city landscape patterns As they have significant directing implications for coastal city landscape pattern improvement. The analytical results of the landscape pattern index

Optimization of PM2.5 Estimation Using Landscape Pattern Information and Land Use Regression Model in Zhejiang, China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
The motivation of this paper is that the effect of landscape pattern information on the accuracy of particulate matter estimation is seldom reported. The landscape pattern indexes were incorporated in a land use regression (LUR) model to investigate the ...

Development of a new index for integrating landscape patterns with ecological processes at watershed scale [PDF]

open access: yesChinese Geographical Science, 2009
Understanding the relationship between landscape patterns and ecological processes has been a central yet challenging research theme in landscape ecology. Over the past decades, many landscape metrics have been proposed but few directly incorporated ecological processes. In this paper, we developed a landscape index, namely, location-weighted landscape

Spatiotemporal Landscape Pattern Analyses Enhanced by an Integrated Index: A Study of the Changbai Mountain National Nature Reserve

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The analysis of spatiotemporal changes of landscape patterns is of great significance for forest protection. However, the selection of landscape metrics is often subjective, and existing composite landscape metrics rarely consider the effects of spatial correlation.

Housing Prices and the Characteristics of Nearby Green Space: Does Landscape Pattern Index Matter? Evidence from Metropolitan Area

open access: yesLand, 2023
This study aimed to examine the association between housing prices and green space characteristics with a special focus on exploring the effects of the shape pattern index. The research was based on a hedonic price model across two main distance buffers from residential properties to urban green spaces. Green spaces were characterized by size and shape

A Note on the Normalized Definition of Shannon’s Diversity Index in Landscape Pattern Analysis

open access: yesEnvironment and Natural Resources Research, 2012
A common approach for quantifying landscape pattern through landscape metrics is to use categorical maps of entire landscape. However, a new interest is to use sampling data where the data are collected for only a small fraction of the entire landscape.
