Impacts of land use changes and synoptic forcing on the seasonal climate over the Pearl River Delta of China In this study, the impact of the rapid rate of urbanization over the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region of China since the 1980s on its seasonal climate is inv... CKM Cheng,JCL ...
satellite images and digital soil databases. The extent of the developed land in the studied area and the impact of development on soil resources at 1:100 000 scale are estimated and the soil types impacted most by urbanization development are determined through overlaying the soil map on the ...
The results show that the expanding urban areas have a significant impact on each city’s capacity to regulate climate and flooding. High-density urban areas, for instance, have soil surface temperatures up to 6°C higher than soils within natural and managed ecosystems. Expansion of turf grass...

The purposes of this study were: (1) to identify the impacts of soil exposure time and urban activities on PAH and HM accumulation in urban soils, (2) to quantitatively describe the relationship between urbanization progression and the health risks posed by soil PAHs and HMs, and (3) to ev...
Continued anthropogenic removal of riparian and watershed vegetation due to increased urbanization, deforestation, aridification and pollution could revert streams to pre-vegetation functioning, thereby increasing their channel and sediment mobility. Future research can use this framework to constrain the pace...
identification of spatial patterns in the urban pedodiversity and (iii) explanation of the factors influencing the direction of changes in the spatial structure of the city and its impact on the soil cover. It was hypothesised that the pedodiversity index (PI) can be a useful indicator of anthro...
This work aims to explore the impact factors, sources, and cancer risks of soil PAHs from the northern Taihu Basin, China, providing worthwhile information for soil remediation and health risk management. Materials and methods In this study, soil samples were collected from 43 residential areas in...
we predict future land use changes for the study area. Then, we integrate the future land use predictions with the Long-Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment (L-THIA) Low Impact Development model to forecast future pollutant loads based on smart decline VLRG scenarios. The CLUE-S model was calibrat...
