Urbanization Sans Development? [PDF]
From a theoretical standpoint, the question has to be asked whether or not the census should retain its present definition of urban areas. There is a need for a more meaningful integration of the structural, institutional and demographic criteria, if the

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Araliaceae comprise a moderately diverse, predominantly tropical angiosperm family with a limited fossil record. Gondwanan history of Araliaceae is hypothesized in the literature, but no fossils have previously been reported from the former supercontinent.

Urban transfer entropy across scales [PDF]
, 2015 The morphology of urban agglomeration is studied here in the context of information exchange between different spatio-temporal scales. Cities are multidimensional non-linear phenomena, so understanding the relationships and connectivity between scales is important in determining how the interplay of local/regional urban policies may affect the ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Amphistomy, the presence of stomata on both leaf surfaces, can increase photosynthesis yet is uncommon across vascular plants. The relative infrequency of amphistomy is often attributed to high costs, such as transpirational water loss.

Interpreting core forms of urban morphology linked to urban functions with explainable graph neural network [PDF]
Understanding the high-order relationship between urban form and function is essential for modeling the underlying mechanisms of sustainable urban systems. Nevertheless, it is challenging to establish an accurate data representation for complex urban forms that are readily explicable in human terms.

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingUrban renewal has led to the proliferation of informal urban habitats, such as slums, shanty towns, and urban villages (UVs). As an important component of urban renewal, UVs influence urban spatial structure and land use patterns.

A Novel Building Type Classification Scheme Based on Integrated LiDAR and High-Resolution Images
Remote Sensing, 2017 Building type information is crucial to many urban studies, including fine-resolution population estimation, urban planning, and management. Although scientists have developed many methods to extract buildings via remote sensing data, only a limited ...
