“…More GIS-based methods were used to detect the most important characteristics of the transformation of the urban fringe in the surroundings of Debrecen. Kernel density estimation is one the most promising tools to analyze point patterns and their temporal changes [61,[89][90][91] or even their modelled future trends [92]. In the current analysis, Kernel density estimations were run to process the point layers from the three investigated years (1980,2000,2020), in order to detect the growth and patterns of territories with residential function at the expense of the primarily agricultural areas.…”

The rapid and significant expansion of urban areas is observed worldwide; however, considerable differences are detected within the characteristics of the process. The rural–urban fringe is changing most dynamically from the aspect of land use and this tends to be relevant in the case of post-socialist cities in Central Europe even with a stagnating or decreasing population. Debrecen (Hungary) and its hinterland adequately represent the migration trends of Hungarian cities and the great administrative area provided wide intra-urban suburbanization processes. The current study put the emphasis on the analysis of the spatial pattern of built-up areas and the distribution of residents. In order to discover the processes of the post-socialist transition period, detailed point layers were created to illustrate every built-up parcel in the rural–urban fringe of Debrecen (for the years 1980, 2000, and 2020). The most important characteristics were discovered with the help of GIS methods—Kernel-density, grid pattern analysis of the object density, and analysis of land cover/land use changes using Corine Land Cover Change (CLCC) databases. The dynamic and extended expansion of built-up areas was seen until 2000, in which the outskirts (including hobby gardens) densified spectacularly. The urban sprawl has been less intensive since the millennium and the increase in built-up areas has become more concentrated. As a consequence of the transition period, extended territories—primarily the least dense parts of the rural–urban fringe—are faced with the disappearance of buildings due to agricultural cultivation reasons.

Functional zoning is an effective method to disclose the spatial diversity of land and a prerequisite for the optimization of national land space. We explore the spatial and temporal characteristics of land use in the Central Plains urban agglomeration from 1990-2020，and the GWLR model was used to investigate the key driving elements for the land change in the urban agglomeration as a whole and in different land use function zones. The results indicate that (1) the most significant changes occurred on cultivated and construction land, with land use change intensities of 1.42% and 1.36%, respectively. (2) There are obvious differences in changes among different land function zones: The core economic zone has the highest proportion of change from cultivated land to construction land; in the belly of urban zone and the main agricultural production zone, due to the lack of natural forest and grass growing conditions, the change in land type is also manifested as the extension of construction land. (3) There are large differences among the motivating elements of cultivated land and construction land change in varied eras and different land use function zones, and changes in construction land are more influenced by socio-economic factors.

“…LRYR has gradually developed into one of the most economically developed, densely populated, and industrially concentrated areas in China. There is a nationallevel city cluster, the Yangtze River Delta City Cluster, within the domain (Zhu et al, 2022). In recent years, with the transformation of development models, the characteristics of regional land use changes have undergone significant changes, making the study of the spatiotemporal distribution of land use in LRYR of great practical value.…”

To systematically explore land use/cover change (LUCC) trends and driving mechanisms at the large watershed scale under the background of climate change and rapid urbanization. Taking the lower reaches of the Yangtze River (LRYR) as the research object, based on the land use remote sensing monitoring data from 1980 to 2020, the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of LUCC in LRYR were analyzed by adopting the methods of land use dynamics degree (LUDD) and hotspot analysis and used geospatial detectors to quantitatively assess the intensity of the role of the land use change drivers in the LRYR. The results show that: 1) The land-use types in LRYR were dominated by arable land and woodland, accounting for more than 70% of the total area. During the study period, the construction land area increased by 11,835 km2, and became the third largest land-use type in LRYR after 2010 and formed a typical urban contiguous zone along the route from Nanjing to Shanghai. 2) The land use degree comprehensive index (LUDCI) in LRYR at each stage is 270.91, 270.88, 272.22, 272.72, 274.00, 275.57, 276.93 and 280.37, respectively. LUCC in LRYR has become more dramatic, and there is significant spatial heterogeneity. Shanghai has always been a hot area of LUCC and Huangshan and Chizhou are cold spots of LUCC. 3) The driving mechanism of LUCC in LRYR can be divided into three stages. In these three stages, secondary industry output value, precipitation, and elevation are always important factors affecting LUCC. The interaction between driving factors is significant. The strongest interaction is the output value of the secondary industry ∩ precipitation, the interaction reaches above 0.6. The research results are of great significance for promoting the sustainable development of land use in this region.
