“…In this work, in order to identify and characterize various types of "pure" man-made impact (of a certain direction, intensity and nature), the studied territories were divided into three groups, in accordance with the method of their use (functional zoning) [1]:…”

“…Identification of areas differing in the density of man-made burden and its functional orientation is the basis for predicting the ecological state of soils and grounds (Kosinova et al, 2002). Functional geoecological zoning, in addition, is the most important tool for managing the territory and resources of a megalopolis, which makes it possible to establish an optimal ratio of use and/or protection measures for a particular area, that is, a functional area is the main unit of territorial governance of a city [1].…”

Geoecological Assessment of the State of Soils in Functional Zones of the Territory of the Eastern Administrative Okrug of Moscow, the Russian Federation

With the development of megalopolises, constant expansion of their borders and chaotic and – to a greater extent – unreasonable territorial division of lands, potential recreational areas are experiencing colossal anthropogenic load and can be found in the state of oppression, gradually moving into an industrial functional zone, from the environmental point of view. For the preservation of ecosystems and rational planning of urban development, it is necessary to pay special attention to the functional purpose and mode of use of the sites, which are the essence of zoning and governance in the field of urban development of land. This paper presents a geoecological assessment of the dynamics of changes in pollution halos among the functional areas of the Eastern Administrative Okrug of Moscow over the past 30 years. Geochemical series of pollutants were compiled with the help of methods of preliminary preparation and statistical data processing. A forecast of the spread of pollution in the surface horizon for the next 100 years is presented, taking into account the hydrogeological features of the territory of the Eastern Administrative Okrug of Moscow.

The article gives the results of studies of the pollution level of soils, grounds, groundwater, water, and bottom sediments in water objects in Burnakovksyaya lowland in Nizhny Novgorod City as factors governing Volga water quality. The obtained data were used to reveal a polyelemental pollution of all environmental components in the study area with different levels, mostly caused by the past economic activity (accumulated damage to the environment). The present-day activity, primarily the accumulation of snow removed from city streets also contributes much to the pollution of the territory. The pollutants lying in the study area are carried out into the Volga by subsoil and surface water. A conclusion is made regarding the need to organize and perform works for clearing the territory of Burnakovskaya lowland to stop and prevent Volga pollution.

“…Besides, Figure 7 suggests that around 15km is the typical human radius of "jump" (or called "displacement" (Noulas et al, 2012)) in new cities as it takes about 15 to 30 minutes to drive such distance (by bus, taxi, or subway). Obviously, this distance is far smaller than 100km, the typical human radius of "reach" traveled from home (Mok et al, 2010;Cho et al, 2011), mainly due to different trip purposes and functional zoning (Dubrova et al, 2015) in various cities. Hence, the factor (distance) may not be a critical (or even an appropriate) variable to model universal patterns of human movements, which is consistent with the results of a few previous studies (Song et al, 2010;Noulas et al, 2012;Gallotti et al, 2016;Wu et al, 2014;Liu et al, 2014;Liang et al, 2015;Zhao et al, 2016a).…”

This article describes how understanding human mobility behavior is of great significance for predicting a broad range of socioeconomic phenomena in contemporary society. Although many studies have been conducted to uncover behavioral patterns of intra-urban and inter-urban human mobility, a fundamental question remains unanswered: To what degree is human mobility behavior predictable in new cities-a person has never visited before? Location-based social networks with a large volume of check-in records provide an unprecedented opportunity to investigate cross-urban human mobility. The authors' empirical study on millions of records from Foursquare reveals the motives and behavioral patterns of non-natives in 59 cities across the United States. Inspired by the ideology of transfer learning, the authors also propose a machine learning model, which is designed based on the regularities that they found in this study, to predict cross-urban human whereabouts after non-natives move to new cities. The experimental results validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model, thus allowing us to predict and control activities driven by cross-urban human mobility, such as mobile recommendation, visual (personal) assistant, and epidemic prevention.
