Urban sprawl is an essential environmental issue to be monitored and forecasted in order to think about alternatives that could lead to a more sustainable future development. Thus, the objective of the project presented here is to simulate the past and future transformation of suburban land use patterns in the Vienna Region. (The paper describes some results of the project, “STAU-Wien” (City–Su...

Ecological disturbances exert an influence on the emergence and proliferation of malaria and zoonotic parasitic diseases, including, Leishmaniasis, cryptosporidiosis, giardiasis, trypanosomiasis, schistosomiasis, filariasis, onchocerciasis, and loiasis. Each environmental change, whether occurring as a natural phenomenon or through human intervention, changes the ecological balance and context ...

This study was carried out in Bale Eco-Region (BER) which is located in Southeastern Ethiopia with the objective of addressing the cause and effect of ecological damage, particularly rangeland degradation. Both purposive and stratified random sampling approaches were used to select HouseHolds (HH). Individual interview, key informants an...

It is over two decades that groundwater flow models are routinely implemented for better management of groundwater resources.Modeling groundwater flow with the help of the ground water modeling system (GMS) in the Damghan plain aquifer in northern Iran,which experiences declining levels and numerous environmental hazards, has demonstrated that, (a) in the worst case scenario theaquifer will fac...

Recovery of degraded reefs is dependent on the settlement of coral larvae into habitats typically dominated by benthic algae, so that benthic algae may play pivotal roles in coral settlement and reef recovery. Here we demonstrate that waterborne influences of macroalgae could affect coral settlement before larvae contact reef substrata and that such effects vary between macroalgae. We tested fo...

Introduction: Land is an object that vulnerable to disputes and problems regarding ownership boundaries.Purposes of the Research: Reviewing analyzing position role Office as a Mediator in Settlement Boundary Disputes, efforts resolve land boundary at Ambon City can be carried out accordance with provisions binding according laws regulations.Methods This research was normative juridical manner b...

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Crepidula fornicata Habitat association Larval settlement Microhabitat Post-settlement mortality Recruitment Habitat-specific distributions of marine benthic invertebrates can be caused by several processes acting prior to, during or after settlement, including differential settlement and varying levels of mortality between habitat types following adaptation of t...

Digital elevation models (DEMs) have become a recognized tool in the visualization of his torical sites. Applications range through various scales from 3D presentations of the settings of individual buildings up to detailed GIS analysis of the hinterlands of archaeological sites. However, the development of space-borne instruments has seen the rise of high resolution DEMs even on the global sca...

Reconstruction of settlement spaces is the process optimizing and reorganizing internal resources a settlement, which great significance to development. In this study, we used land-use transfer matrix, dynamics, building density, mean height, plot ratio in four time series explore Jinshitan 2-dimensional 3-dimensional space, production space reconstruction its drivers. The conclusions were as f...
