Urban Type Classification and Characteristic Analysis through Time-Series Environmental Changes for Land Use Management for 31 Satellite Cities around Seoul, South Korea

Land, 2021
The objective of the present study was to determine changes in land coverage for 31 satellite cities surrounding Seoul and changes in values of MSPA (Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis) for a time period of about 30 years (from 1988 to 2018).

Rainfall and land use empirically coupled to forecast landslides in the Esino river basin, central Italy [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2015
A coupled empirical approach to highlight relationships between rainfall, vegetation segmentation, and landslide occurrence is discussed. To reveal such links, two important rainfall events, which occurred over the Esino river basin in central Italy in ...

Association Between Morphological Spatial Patterns of Built-Up Land and Carbon Emissions: Evidence from 303 Cities in China

Systems
Given the accelerated growth of built-up land, optimizing land-use patterns is a practical strategy for reducing urban carbon emissions. While previous studies have concentrated on landscape patterns, the association between the morphological spatial ...

Linking MSPA and Circuit Theory to Identify the Spatial Range of Ecological Networks and Its Priority Areas for Conservation and Restoration in Urban Agglomeration

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Rapid urbanization has led to the continuous degradation of natural ecological space within large urban agglomerations, triggering landscape fragmentation and habitat loss, which poses a great threat to regional ecological sustainability.

Multi‐Scale Pathways to Integrated Protection and Restoration of Mountains, Rivers, Forests, Farmlands, Lakes, and Grasslands in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area: A Social‐Ecological Systems Perspective

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10546-10565, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Human activities have intensified eco‐environmental problems, challenging harmonious human‐nature interactions. However, existing integrated protection and restoration (IPR) zoning approaches for mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, and grasslands (MRFFLG) focus on a single scale and fail to incorporate the ecological network (EN) and

The green areas of San Juan, Puerto Rico

Ecology and Society, 2014
Green areas, also known as green infrastructure or urban vegetation, are vital to urbanites for their critical roles in mitigating urban heat island effects and climate change and for their provision of multiple ecosystem services and aesthetics. Here, I
