The Relationship between Built Environment Characteristics and Metro Stations Pedestrian Catchment Areas

Journal of Advanced Transportation
The study of pedestrian catchment areas for metro stations serves as the foundation for addressing issues such as‐passenger flow forecasting, land use planning around stations, and transportation link facility planning. This study aims to investigate how various factors related to pedestrians, the environment, and the characteristics of metro stations ...

A comparison of monitoring methods for inferring demographics of a pond‐breeding amphibian population over 14 years

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used 4 sampling methods to estimate or index the abundance and sex ratio of spotted salamanders (Ambystoma maculatum) over 14 years. The present study highlights the importance of considering individual heterogeneity in capture probability when estimating abundance of pond‐breeding amphibians from capture data with imperfect detection. Abstract Long‐

The Walkability Evaluation and Optimization Strategies of Metro Station Areas Taking Shanghai as an Example

Buildings
Improving the pedestrian environment around metro stations and enhancing walkability are important for the daily travel and life quality of passengers. By reviewing existing studies, we summarized nine walkability elements and eventually refined them into 18 quantifiable research indicators.

Effect of carcass storage condition on searcher efficiency trials for conservation detection dogs

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We investigated the influence of storage condition on bat carcass odor through chemical analysis. Additionally, we tested the detectability of 3 carcass storage conditions through searcher efficiency trials with conservation detection dogs. Only 20% of the chemicals observed were shared across all 4 carcass storage conditions.

Impact of Detour Tunnels in Metro Station Track Area on Ventilation and Thermal Environment of the Line Tunnel

Chengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
［Objective］ Due to the space limitation around some metro stations, the piston air shafts can not be installed outside the track area. To meet the ventilation requirements, the piston air shafts can be arranged within the station track area through a ...

Land Use Transformation and Climate Resilience in Smart Cities: Role of ICT in Modern Urban Planning

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern urban planning is experiencing a transition from traditional planning to the integration of information technology, which defines the concept of a “smart city”. The study analyses the evolution of urban planning practices with an emphasis on the role of engineering and architecture in the process of urbanization, the transition to the ...

Metro systems as catalysts for equitable access to urban parks: a case study from Nanjing, China

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
As high-capacity public transit, metros efficiently link urban green spaces, extend residents’ travel ranges and broaden park services through independent, equitable mobility. Yet targeted research on how metros improve park access remains limited. Given

Nonlinear Effects of Station-Area Environments on Commercial–Employment Composite Vitality: Evidence from Osaka’s Midosuji Line

Land
Rail-transit station areas concentrate commercial services, employment, and intensive land development, but their vitality is shaped by multiple built-environment conditions rather than rail accessibility alone.

Evaluating Erosional Stability of Reconstructed Mine Landscapes Using Landform Evolution Models: Parameterisation and Decadal‐Scale Erosion Assessment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the long‐term erosional stability of post‐mining landforms remains a major challenge in open‐pit mining. Reconstructed landscapes must support the agreed post‐mining land use, such as cattle grazing in the Hunter region of southeastern Australia, requiring stable pasture and minimal soil loss.

Effects of Station-Area Built Environment on Metro Ridership: The Role of Spatial Synergy

Sustainability
Evaluating transit-oriented development (TOD) efficiency in metro station areas remains challenging, as the traditional “Node–Place” model gives limited consideration to guiding factors and struggles to account for inter-regional flows under spatial heterogeneity.
