Radiative absorption enhancements by black carbon controlled by particle-to-particle heterogeneity in composition. [PDF]

, 2020
Black carbon (BC) absorbs solar radiation, leading to a strong but uncertain warming effect on climate. A key challenge in modeling and quantifying BC's radiative effect on climate is predicting enhancements in light absorption that result from internal ...

Scale-Dependent Relationships Between Urban Morphology and Noise Perception: A Multi-Scale Spatiotemporal Analysis in New York City

Land
Urban morphology significantly influences residents’ noise perceptions, yet the impact across different spatial and temporal scales remains unclear. This study investigates the scale-dependent relationship between urban morphology and noise perception in

A rigorous definition of axial lines: ridges on isovist fields [PDF]

, 2003
We suggest that 'axial lines' defined by (Hillier and Hanson, 1984) as lines of uninterrupted movement within urban streetscapes or buildings, appear as ridges in isovist fields (Benedikt, 1979). These are formed from the maximum diametric lengths of the

Deciphering the Roles of 2-D and 3-D Urban Landscape Metrics in Diurnal Surface Thermal Environment Along Urban Gradients

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The urban heat island phenomenon has posed detrimental effects on urban climate and human well-being. Various influencing factors, such as urban morphology, have been applied to reveal their influences on land surface temperature (LST).

Morphology of travel routes and the organization of cities

, 2017
The city is a complex system that evolves through its inherent social and economic interactions. Mediating the movements of people and resources, urban street networks offer a spatial footprint of these activities; consequently their structural ...

Plot-based urbanism and urban morphometrics : measuring the evolution of blocks, street fronts and plots in cities [PDF]

, 2011
Generative urban design has been always conceived as a creation-centered process, i.e. a process mainly concerned with the creation phase of a spatial transformation. We argue that, though the way we create a space is important, how that space evolves in

Residential densification and urbanities; from urban form in collective housing complexes in Córdoba, Argentina

ESTOA: Revista de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad de Cuenca
The performance of residential densification and the potential to generate conditions for urbanity in public space are investigated. The objective is to identify the interrelationships between density ranges, residential types, and spatial conditions ...

The Role of Urban Morphology Design on Enhancing Physical Activities and Public Health [PDF]

Along with environmental pollutions, urban planning has been connected to public health. The research indicates that the quality of built environments plays an important role in reducing mental disorders and overall health. The structure and shape of the

Green Infrastructure morphology: Integrating urban morphological perspectives for sustainable urban development

Journal of Urban Management
Green infrastructure (GI) is increasingly recognised as a vital component of sustainable urban development, offering ecosystem services such as climate regulation, biodiversity enhancement, and spatial connectivity. Despite its potential, the spatial and
