In the field of urban environment engineering, understanding relationship between land surface temperature (LST) and use cover (LULC) is essential in rapidly growing climatically unstable landscapes such as Chengdu. It helps alleviate magnitude intensity Urban Heat Islands (UHIs). Toward this aim, summer winter Landsat images were acquired four years from 1992 to 2021 used extract LULC classes, LST three indices Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Built-up (NDBI), Modified Water...

Urban green space has been considered as an ecological measure to mitigate urban heat islands (UHI). However, few studies investigate the cooling effect of adjacent area park; transition region from a hardened surface where more complex exchange occurs, it deserves be paid attention. This paper examines relationship between greening patterns and in surrounding areas Olympic Forest Park Beijing. Results showed that forestland waterbodies could cool 6.51% 12.82% impervious temperatures,...

The cooling effect of green spaces as an ecological solution to mitigate urban climate change is well documented. However, the factors influencing microclimate in built environment around forest parks, diurnal variations their impact and degree importance have not been explicitly addressed. We attempted quantify how much various landscape parameters, including land cover spatial location, ambient air surface temperature area Beijing’s Olympic Forest Park. Data were taken along strategically...

This study examines the distribution patterns of rural settlements from a new perspective ethnic inter-embeddedness. The Shannon-Wiener Index (SWI) and Moran's I methods are employed to identify spatial characteristics in typical multi-ethnic gathering area. results as follows: Firstly, different groups exhibit significant heterogeneity remarkable differences ethnicity region. Each group has its core settlement areas geography. Secondly, represent clustering gradient variations distribution....

In this study, the effects of wind on an Eastern Red Cedar were investigated using numerical simulations. Two different tree models proposed, each with varying bole lengths and canopy diameters. A total 18 cases examined, including diameters, lengths, velocities. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods, drag force, deformation, stress calculated under velocities geometric parameters. one-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method was used to solve deformation tree. Additionally,...

Investigating the nonlinear impacts of urban landscape and climatic parameters on temperatures, a critical issue within climatology. Chengdu, characterized by its hot, rainy summers rapid development, serves as an ideal model to illustrate these dynamics. Our investigation utilizes advanced analytical methods such Random Forests (RF), SHapley additive explanation (SHAP), Partial Dependence Plots (PDP) analyze how factors influence air temperature (AT) land surface (LST). Significant findings...

Historic gardens have the ability to provide several ecosystem services in cities, including provisioning (i.e., food production). The historic Iran (known as “Persian Gardens”) never been considered places that could be used for production. As a result, purpose of this paper is investigate whether Iranian gardens’ spatial and structural layout suitable modern urban gardening. We conducted field studies six recognized Persian four provinces via qualitative analysis according socio-cultural...

The Akbarieh Garden in Iran accommodates both pleasure and edible landscapes. In this study, visitor accessibility of the fruit trees garden was assessed using continuous stop-motion walking modes. Results indicated that mode, focus rested more on recognising macro elements along walkways; therefore, landscape not adequately considered. by stopping successive sequences, could be accessed. However, access to limited several factors. While perimeter wall accessibility, spatial organisation two...

Abstract: Geological disasters have long been a constant threat to socioeconomic development and human life property. Many studies focus on the occurred geological ignore potential risk events. Fine-scale multi-type analysis of Potential Disasters Spots (PGDSs) is necessary but insufficiently explored research field in China’s mountainous areas. Taking Meigu County (Sichuan Province, Southwest China), typical disaster-prone region, as study area. Average nearest neighbor (ANN), standard...

Scientific understanding of urban ecosystem service value (ESV) is fundamental to building an ecological landscape pattern and improving environmental quality. The equivalent factor method (EFM) widely used in evaluating ESV for natural ecosystems. In this study, using the EFM sensitivity analysis, our research explored space–time changes land use during planning construction Tianfu New Area from 2010 2020. This study selected correction factors geography social economy aspects, established...

In every landscape design project, designers usually search for similar completed projects as precedents and inspiration [...]

Ensuring equity in education is crucial for sustainable development, yet it remains a global challenge. Previous research has extensively explored the spatial of educational resources developed countries; however, there's lack adequate studies focused on cities within developing regions, like Erbil. Also, impact double-shift school system significantly unexplored. This study employs statistical techniques (Location Quotient and Pearson's correlation) to analyze concentration relationship...
