“…is more susceptible to air humidity, which does not contradict the results of the correlation analysis because the possible existence of covariance in the soil factors was tested out in the regression analysis. In contrast, SMC in R. pseudoacacia L. was more easily explained by soil factors, mainly limited by the available N content [51][52][53].…”

The Chinese Loess Plateau has undertaken a large-scale “Grain for Green” project since 1999. Understanding how reforestation affects soil moisture is crucial for ecological construction and the region’s revegetation. In this study, soil sensors were installed to monitor the soil moisture content (SMC) and soil desiccation intensity in a 0–200 cm soil profile online during the growing season, with farmland as a control and Robinia (R.) pseudoacacia L., Pinus (P.) tabulaeformis Carr., Populus (P.) alba L., and Ulmus (U.) pumila L. were selected. The results showed that the SMC increased with soil depth, and the soil moisture storage (SMS) in the 0–200 cm soil profile was ranked as R. pseudoacacia L. (424.3 mm) < farmland (479.8 mm) < U. pumila L. (569.8 mm) < P. alba L. (583.9 mm) < P. tabulaeformis Carr. (589.8 mm). Secondly, the percentages of inefficient water and gravimetric water in soil moisture were ranked as R. pseudoacacia L. (63%) > farmland (49%) > U. pumila L. (43%) > P. alba L. (17%) > P. tabulaeformis Carr. (11%). The soil desiccation intensity of artificial forests was heavy in June, light in April and July, and no desiccation in the other months. Moderate desiccation was discovered in the 0–40 cm soil layer and mild desiccation occurred in the 40–60 cm soil layer. Additionally, the representative soil layer for SMS in farmland for P. tabulaeformis Carr., U. pumila L., and R. pseudoacacia L. was the 90 cm soil layer, and the SMS representative soil layer for P. alba L. was the 70 cm soil layer. In brief, an SMS deficit occurred after the conversion of the farmland to R. pseudoacacia L., but there was an SMS surplus after the conversion of the farmland to P. alba L., U. pumila L., and P. tabulaeformis Carr. This suggests that the artificial forest species could be optimized by introducing P. tabulaeformis Carr. instead of R. pseudoacacia L., and the degradation of R. pseudoacacia L. could be suppressed by the application of a nitrogen fertilizer. Our research demonstrated that soil moisture depletion patterns were closely related to artificial forest species, and attention should be paid to the vegetation restoration and maintenance of afforestation achievements in water-constrained arid regions in the future.

“…In Frank et al's study, walkability was quantified and assessed using indices based on land use, net residential density, intersection density, street connectivity, and retail floor area ratio [50,51]. Regarding environmental factors that significantly influence walkability, a recent study conducted by Isinkaralar [52] focused on outdoor thermal comfort under various climate change scenarios. The study employed spatial and temporal modeling through GIS to delineate bioclimatic comfort areas.…”

Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, grapples with several urban challenges, including traffic accidents, congestion, and underdeveloped sidewalks. These issues stem from the escalating use of private cars and motorcycles driven by rapid urbanization, accompanying economic growth, and the unique street geometry of the city. Furthermore, despite the development of railroads, issues persist with the poor walking environment for pedestrian access to stations, posing a challenge to the promotion of safe and environmentally friendly public transportation. This study evaluated streets’ spatial performance, focusing on the performance of soi, the intricate network of narrow urban pathways in Bangkok. Leveraging an AI model capturing pedestrian value, this study subsequently assessed accessibility from typical residential areas to public transportation stations. The findings shed light on the challenges faced by sois in Bangkok. Based on the findings, practical implications were discussed and provided to inform urban designers, with the aim of promoting public transportation usage and encouraging a more sustainable urban form.

“…The environmental impact of urban infrastructure objects refers to the potential or actual negative effects on the air, water, soil, flora, fauna, and human health. The impact may be temporary or permanent and can include soil erosion (Polovina et al, 2021), habitat destruction (Dubey et al, 2023), noise pollution (Chiarini et al, 2020), water pollution (Strokal et al, 2021), air pollution (Goyal et al, 2021), and greenhouse gas emissions (Isinkaralar et al, 2023). With the steady expansion of urban areas there is the increasing demand for efficient monitoring of urban infrastructure objects.…”

Abstract. The paper demonstrates the application of hyperspectral data of Flight Laboratory of Imaging Systems (FLIS, https://olc.czechglobe.cz/en) to participate in three practical tasks of urban environment in the Czech Republic: 1/identification of asbestos-cement roofs on buildings; 2/monitoring of thermal regime of municipal solid waste landfill, and 3/estimation of perceived temperature in different parts of the city. These applications benefited from the airborne hyperspectral methods' ability to collect detailed spectral information, assess material composition, and extract biophysical parameters.
