This paper examines the continued growth in use of underground space beneath cities and widespread lack significant broad planning efforts for its use. The is drawn from collective experience prior research authors together with information exchanges afforded by activities International Tunnelling Underground Space Association's Committee on (ITACUS). particular focus this sustainability issues related to urban including contribution an environmentally sustainable aesthetically acceptable...
Use of Urban Underground Space (UUS) has been growing significantly in the world’s biggest and wealthiest cities. UUS long acknowledged to be important urban development agenda: sustainability, resilience, livability, creating a better environment particular. These issues are traditionally monitored using indicators, however not properly included considered indicator lists (sets or systems) yet – gap this paper is aiming bridge. The reviews existing approaches composition lists, highlighting...
In response to powerful trends in technology, resource and land supply demand, socioeconomics geopolitics, cities are likely increase use of the subsurface near future. Indeed, its appropriate have been put forward as being crucial importance if we achieve resilient sustainable cities. recent years, quite apart from seen primarily a construction basis provide physical space for infrastructure create better surface living environment, has recognised multifunctional natural resource, one which...
Urban Underground Space as a valuable resource, space for placing structures and infrastructure, well source of groundwater geothermal energy. Development has been accelerating rapidly in many major cities. Pressures changing global environment, including climate increasingly limited land availability, place on the top innovative urban development agenda. However strategy an alternative to surface growth not yet duly elaborated or even discussed. This paper will explore plausible transitions...
In the past two decades, great efforts have been made to develop sustainability solutions for built environment. One way measure efficacy of such is by using indicators. Greater use underground space one proposed solutions. However, a detailed review current construction sector indicator systems, as Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method and Civil Engineering Quality Awards Scheme, shows that there need bespoke framework system tailored urban space. The aim this...
The main research objective of this study is to examine how coastal urban communities in the Arctic Zone Russian Federation (AZRF) organize sustainable development (and emerging blue economy) strategy planning process. Along with general objective, focuses on four more specific questions: First, whether and economy concepts are integrated into strategies they a real priority for northern communities? Second, figure out which local government civil society institutions involved policy process...
The purpose of this study was to assess the groundwater contamination from a sewage sludge landfill.The analysis carried out in 2017 accordance with requirements national legislation for monitoring landfills and priority pollutants.The samples landfill were taken 25 observation wells, depths 45-60 m.The status dynamics changes quality estimated according data wells city network regard chemical composition standards quality.The forecast estimates low level pollutants entering through soils...
The purpose of this article is to determine the relevant indicators for compiling an environmental security index Arctic Zone Russian Federation (AZRF) and ranking (compiling a rating) regions AZRF on its basis. We have developed our own methodology constructing rating.The ecological block includes three groups parameters: impact atmospheric air water environment, as well waste management. In ecological-economic indicators, characteristics, such expenditures protection investments in area...
The harmonious development of urban rail transit, underground space engineering, and social economy is the key to regional sustainable development. Based on synergetic theory, this paper constructs coupling coordination evaluation system “rail transport-social economy” composite at scale a city cluster. With system, coordinated pattern characteristics transit-social in Yangtze River Delta cluster from 2002 2020 were analyzed. makes horizontal comparison with Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Pearl...
The research objective of this article is to develop an optimal model for a human security system in the Arctic Zone Russian Federation (AZRF). This topic has gained particular relevance as focus exploration shifted include interests, needs, concerns, and threats security. Despite shift, concept not yet been incorporated into strategic documents that outline development priorities AZRF, nor practical policies at federal, regional, or municipal levels. study employs qualitative methods...
The goal of the paper is summarizing results 20-years monitoring deposit sites dredged material in Eastern Gulf Finland (EGoF) and Neva Bay. biotic abiotic components ecosystems were observed there 1999-2019, with using standard methods, order to reveal effects dumping on hydrobiologic communities determine their environmental status. Biota Condition Index for 6 was calculated compared areas which are not stressed by dumping. It shown that biological (especially – benthic) enormous...
