Context: This study examines the spatio-temporal patterns of urban expansion for Yangon and Nay Pyi Taw, the former and new national capitals of Myanmar, and its impact on the regional environment between 2000 and 2013. Objectives: The objective is to examine different driving forces of urban...

Context: In response to predominantly local and private approaches to landscape change, landscape ecologists should critically assess the multiscalar influences on landscape design. Objectives: This study develops a governance framework for Nassauer and Opdam's "Design-in-Science" model. Its...

As urban environments differ from the natural environment, the ability of a species to move in and use variable land composition types determines its fate in the urban environment. In many mammalian species, the selection of home ranges mainly occurs during natal dispersal. Thus, habitat selection...

In recent years, trees in urban areas have been recognised as a key part of the urban landscape, particularly in terms of the environmental and...

This review of tree biomechanics covers recent research publications that offer new insights into how trees respond to mechanical loads and resist failure, especially in winds. Biomechanical studies using dynamic rather than static structural methods are showing that the form of the tree influences...
