These were: the dominant general land cover (built up or vegetation), the housing density, the mean structure and plot size, and the spatial aggregation of built-up areas. For two test areas in the Santa Barbara region, changes (urban growth) in the urban spatial land-use structure can ...
Remotely sensed data for Southeastern United States (Standard Federal Region 4) are used to examine the scale problems involved in reporting landscape pattern for a large, heterogeneous region. Frequency distributions of landscape indices illustrate problems associated with the grain or resolution of the...
In this article we explore the role that the linguistic landscape, in the sense of all the written language in the public space, can have in second language acquisition (SLA). The linguistic landscape has symbolic and informative functions and it is multimodal, because it combines visual and pr...
Concepts of landscape were belonged to natural monuments in 1914. From 1915 to 1920, categories of national monuments had been discussed. Through the discussions, landscape shifted its position from natural monuments to meisho, which originally means a place of scenic beauty. On the other hand, ...
For one population, we tracked adult mortality, whole-plant reproductive allocation, the number of stems, and plant size for 2 years. In a field experiment, we created artificial streams to test whether vegetative reproduction via stem fragments was sex-biased.We found a consistent 2:1 female ...
Using landscape metrics to model source habitat for Neotropical migrants in the midwestern U.S. Size of a forest patch is a useful predictor of density and reproductive success of Neotropical migratory birds in much of eastern North America. Within th... PT Fauth,EJ Gustafson,KN Rabenold - 《...
The will to make the necessary changes to combat global warming head-on may elude the world's diplomatic communities, but a regional conservation plan could serve as a stopgap measure, or at least a preliminary step toward regaining a balance in the world system. By Dr. John Tieffenbacher ...
In this paper,the holistic landscape pattern and its spatial difference in the mainstream area of the Tarim River in Xinjiang were analyzed based on GIS and quantitative analysis. According to the physical geographical features in the drainage basin,35 buffer zones were delimited along the transversal...
we design a calculation method for landscape perception sensitivity on sight-seeing route in ecotourism destinations.The method includes 2 types of impact factors:visible perception factors and ecological perception factors.The visible perception is used to describe the perception stimulated by visual sense...
