Preference for different urban greenscape designs: a choice experiment using virtual environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nature in cities serves a multitude of purposes, one of which is that it provides citizens opportunities to recover from stressful daily urban life. Such stress recovering effects of nature can be experienced through urban green, which in urban planning ...

Urban Environments

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractUrbanization has dramatically changed Earth’s surface. This chapter starts with a qualitative look at the impact urban expansion has on the landscape, covering three existing urban classification schemes that have been created by other remote sensing scientists. We look at how these classifications can be used to quantify urban areas, and close

Stochastic processes shape microeukaryotic community assembly in a subtropical river across wet and dry seasons

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2019
Background The deep mechanisms (deterministic and/or stochastic processes) underlying community assembly are a central challenge in microbial ecology. However, the relative importance of these processes in shaping riverine microeukaryotic biogeography is
