A critical assessment showing that when high-quality forest inventory data exist, adding optical remote sensing brings only marginal gains in plot-scale AGB estimation accuracy.
A multi-perspective NDVI-GVI framework revealing how urban expansion reshapes the spatial relationships between urban green space and urban morphology in Guangzhou.
Urbanization, characterized by rapid construction land expansion, has transformed natural landscapes and significantly altered river networks in emerging metropolitan areas. Understanding the historical and current conditions of river networks is …
Climate change and rapid urbanization have led to increasingly frequent urban flooding, causing substantial losses. While previous studies have examined the impact of land use types on flooding, few studies have explored how the spatial distribution …
Context-The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all sectors of society, with effects that have been acutely experienced at the local, national, regional, and global levels. Objectives-This study examined the heterogeneous impacts of and vulnerability to …
Accurate assessments of the historical and current status of eco-environmental quality (EEQ) are essential for governments to have a comprehensive understanding of regional ecological conditions, formulate scientific policies, and achieve the United …
Water security represents ecological security and a policy priority for sustainable development; however, un-gridded assessment results cannot be used to support urban environmental management decisions. This study proposes a systematic framework to …
The “Scale effect” has always been the hot topic in landscape ecology research. Although, there are many studies on the driving force of urban environmental problems by using landscape metrics. Most studies are carried out in regional, continental and global scales. However, in this study, we explored the relationship between the urban form fragmentation and CO₂ emissions in the city scale from the perspective of dual resolution sizes and summarized the research conclusions that can be used in urban internal management based on the analysis results of small towns.
Cities are typical sources of carbon and a focus of climate-change mitigation. Although there is great potential for reducing emissions in cities, constructing low-carbon emission cities under the carbon-emission reduction target of the 2016 Paris …
To introduce our study on the scale effect and zoning effect of geographical features, and how the modified areal unit problem (MAUP) influences the results.
