the present research with historical and epistemological dimensions, firstly studies the perception of urban landscape and its position in environmental interventions and also as a tool for analyzing the city during three temporal periods from 1960 till 1980; then by surveying the works in the fields of photography and cinema, studies the position of artistic visualization in urban landscape. t...

Predicting species distributions at scales of regions to continents is often necessary, as largescale phenomena influence the distributions of spatially structured populations. Land use and land cover are important large-scale drivers of species distributions, and landscapes are known to create species occurrence thresholds, where small changes in a landscape characteristic results in abrupt ch...

Temporal urban mapping develops a historical perspective of urban development by combining a variety of data sources into an integrated, multi-scale, and multi-resolution database. Temporal map and databases can be used to document human-induced land transformations in Dhaka Metropolitan Area (DMA), where the human induced land transformation rate is very high. Two main features – Arial expansi...

Active landslides have three major effects on landscapes: (1) land cover change, (2) topographical change, and (3) above ground biomass change. Data derived from multi-temporal Light Detection and Ranging technology (LiDAR) are used in combination with multi-temporal orthophotos to quantify these changes between 2006 and 2012, caused by an active deep-seated landslide near the village of Doren ...

urban expansion and agriculture intensification are relevant drivers in land degradation (ld)processes in europe due to net loss of land, soil sealing, landscape fragmentation and other negative effects on the environment. this paper explores changes (or “trajectories” of change) in land use and cover (lulc) and their relationship with the consumption of soils in emilia-romagna (northern italy)...

providing efficient programme to promote urban landscape is considered as one of the most significant element of development in developed cities. the significance will become more considerable in edges of megacities where a lot of environmental, social, and economic issues are evident. this article is trying to deal with the importance of landscape control in relation with a neighborhood by sug...

Microclimatic design requires knowledge of the climate conditions, understanding of the ways that landscape elements affect microclimate and methods of applying this knowledge through landscape design to create microclimates that are comfortable for people and minimize the energy use of buildings. In this article it will be introduced the most important components and characteristics of microcl...
