Rising levels of impervious surfaces in densely populated cities and climate change-related weather extremes such as heavy rain events or long dry periods provide us with new challenges for sustainable stormwater management urban areas. The Special Issue consists nine articles a review focuses on range relevant issues: different aspects findings runoff quantity quality, including strategies tec...

InSAR’s capabilities have been considerably improved by advanced processing techniques such as Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) and SAR Tomography (TomoSAR). However, complicated scattering situations (e.g. layover) need to be better resolved in urban areas. This paper presents a new technique for providing the 3D point scatterer location and the resolution cell configuration, based on...

The overwhelming trend is for urban areas to grow. The challenge is to accentuate the positive impacts of this growth (innovation, art, wealth, etc) while mitigating the negative burdens (crime, pollution, poverty, loss of biodiversity, etc). However, this challenge is complicated by the interconnected physical, biological and social issues. There are several studies on just one aspect of this ...

Research into urban geomorphology is relatively recent (Brown et al., 2017; Rosenbaum 2003; Zwolinski 2017), and the discipline gaining interest at an accelerating pace, as globa...
