Relationship between urban landscape structure and land surface temperature: spatial hierarchy and interaction effects

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2022
: Urban landscape structure has profound impacts on the urban thermal environment (UTE), however, the spatial hierarchy and interaction effects of the relationship between them are limitedly explored.

Urban morphology and landscape structure effect on land surface temperature: Evidence from Shiraz, a semi-arid city

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2018
Urbanization process contributes to more urban climate changes, specifically the land surface temperature (LST). Higher LST of urban areas compared to the surroundings is regarded as the side effect of urban morphology and landscape structure features ...

Mining the regularity of landscape-structure heterogeneity to improve urban land-cover mapping

Remote Sensing of Environment, 2018
The availability of remote sensing images of various resolutions has enabled the incorporation of landscape structures in land-cover mapping. Despite the effectiveness of landscape metrics in quantifying landscape structures, they are inadequate in ...

The dynamic relationships between landscape structure and ecosystem services: An empirical analysis from the Wuhan metropolitan area, China.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2022
Environmental managers have been striving to optimize landscape structure to achieve a sustained supply of ecosystem services (ESs). However, we still lack a full understanding of the relationships between landscape structure and ESs due to the absence ...

Quantifying spatial non-stationarity in the relationship between landscape structure and the provision of ecosystem services: An example in the New Zealand hill country.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Knowing how landscape structure affects the provision of ecosystem services (ES) is an important first step toward better landscape planning. Because landscape structure is often heterogenous across space, modelling the relationship between landscape ...

Navigating structure–activity landscapes

Drug Discovery Today, 2009
The problem of how to explore structure-activity relationships (SARs) systematically is still largely unsolved in medicinal chemistry. Recently, data analysis tools have been introduced to navigate activity landscapes and to assess SARs on a large scale.

A global assessment of primate responses to landscape structure

Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2019
Land‐use change modifies the spatial structure of terrestrial landscapes, potentially shaping the distribution, abundance and diversity of remaining species assemblages. Non‐human primates can be particularly vulnerable to landscape disturbances, but our

Effectiveness of agri-environmental management on pollinators is moderated more by ecological contrast than by landscape structure or land-use intensity.

Ecology Letters, 2019
Agri-environment management (AEM) started in the 1980s in Europe to mitigate biodiversity decline, but the effectiveness of AEM has been questioned. We hypothesize that this is caused by a lack of a large enough ecological contrast between AEM and non ...
