Are the rural areas urbanizing or is that urban areas are undergoing ‘ruralisation’ (in form of underserviced slums)? What are the chal- lenges faced by ‘mega urban regions’, and how they can be/are being addressed? What drives economic dynamism in human settlements?

During the twenty-first century,itisourresponsibletasktoleavearichenvironmentforthenextgenerations withoutanyregret. With the urbanization of the world, the living environment has become worse withmanyproblemssuchasheatisland,airpollution,andalargeamountofenergy consumption.InJapan,environmentalstudieshavemainlyfocusedonhowtheway the urban environment should be because a large part of the population have been living in urban areas. Although urban areas have provided great convenience with regard to advanced social economics for people, urban areas also have put a considerable amount of load on the material recycle of the environment with the consumption ofresourcesand energy in order tokeep onthe economicprosperity. Nature in urban areas has been disappeared with concrete roads or buildings. Environment problems have been widely recognized since the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s when the Club of Rome published their famous report “Limits of Growth” and the oil shock attacked the world. Some counter- movementshavebeenseekingalternativewaystotrytoliveinabalancewithnature. Theconceptofecologicalplanning,therefore,hasbeenputforwardmainlysincethe 1960s. Environmental and ecological demands are strong in advanced countries, such as the United States and Japan. In the 1990s, many studies of ecological planning have been carried out in Japan to emphasize living together with nature, bydecreasingtheenvironmentalloadandcreatingtheamenityofurbanenvironment with high efficiency. One of those subjects is to mitigate the urban climate by introducingthegreenareaintotheurbanspaceandtoberearranged. Theurbanizationprocessisongoingworldwide.However,thecharacteristicsof city development in different regions are manifold. Most of the cities are growing fast,whileasmallnumberofcitiesarealsoshrinking.Inthosegrowingcities,some aredevelopingtowardsahigh-riseandcompactformandothersaredevelopingina scattered pattern. Cities in Asia are usually high-rise and compact with higher v vi Preface population density, which exerts impacts on our living environment with a larger intensity and is drawing more attention. Under different urbanization and develop- ment scenarios, cities are facing new challenges and becoming a major concern. Betterunderstandingonrelatedphysicallawsandsustainabletechnologiesisbadly needed. Creating a sustainable and livable urban environment and realizing the sustainable development goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN) is one of the biggestchallengesinthiscentury,eveninnextcenturies.

Qingdao,China WeijunGao Kitakyushu,Japan Marketing Text This book provides new information to understand the relationship between urban development and environmental change to the reader. How to create a sustainable and livable urban environment and realize the sustainable development goals (SDGs)oftheUnitedNations(UN)isoneofthebiggestchallengesinthiscentury, even in the next centuries. The covered subject areas of this book aim at finding a way to push SDGs forward by collecting the related knowledge between urban development and its environmental implications. Specifically, the book focuses on UN SDGs 9 (industry, innovation, and infrastructure), 11 (sustainable cities and communities), and 13 (climate action). Regarding the SDGs 9, this book assesses urban population mobility, urban ecosystem services, and green infrastructure to address climate change in cities. Regarding the SDGs 11, this book explores the sustainability of urban landscape change associated with urbanization based on a multi-scale perspective. Regarding the SDGs 13, this book explores the issues affecting the development of healthy cities in the context of climate change and possiblewaystoaddressthem. This book focuses on newer fields related to various forms of urbanization and urbanclimate.Underdifferenturbanizationanddevelopmentscenarios,thecityand built environment are facing new challenges and become a major concern. Better understanding of related physical laws and sustainable technologies are badly needed. This book is a good reference for urban planners, city officials, citizens whoareconcernedaboutthecityenvironment,andpolicymakers,aswellasstudents studyingurbanstructureandenvironment. ix Contents TheoryandMethodofUrbanStructureandEnvironment. . . . . . . . . . . 1 XiujuanHeandWeijunGao PopulationMobilityandUrbanDevelopment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 ZhenYang SpatiotemporalQuantificationandIdentificationof UrbanDevelopmentandItsCharacteristics. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 WeiChenandWangchongyuPeng SustainabilityPerformanceofUrbanizationandItsEnvironment. . . . . 81 XueFang QualitativeAssessmentofUrbanEcosystemServicesBasedonGIS. . . . 107 DongjieGuanandLileiZhou VisualQualityEvaluationofUrbanLandscapeBasedonComputer VisionTechnology. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 139 DongSun ApplicationofMachineLearninginPredictionofUrbanHeatIsland. . . 171 RuiWang Climate-SensitiveUrbanDesignforThermalComfort. . . . . . . . . . . . . . 207 YanWang,YuanSu,andM.DonnyKoerniawan UrbanStructureandItsEnvironment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 263 DianZhouandDuoXu xi
