Landscape patterns are closely related to ecological processes. Different spatial scales and research methods may lead to different results. Therefore, it is crucial to choose suitable research methods when studying different landscape patterns and ecological processes. In the present study, the methods of source-sink landscape theory were applied to the interactions between urban landscape cha...

Evapotranspiration estimation has benefitted from recent advances in remote sensing and GIS techniques particularly in agricultural applications rather than urban environments. This paper explores the relationship between urban vegetation evapotranspiration (ET) and vegetation indices derived from newly-developed high spatial resolution WorldView-2 imagery. The study site was Veale Gardens in A...

We present an image analysis flowchart, based on the use of object-oriented software (eCognition). The maps obtained identify the urban landscape at different scale levels (urban areas and buildings – settlements) and at different organization levels (dense, discontinuous or low-density urban landscape). A particular effort has been made to assess the quality of the results (confusion matrix, K...
