Urban development versus wetland loss in a coastal Latin American city: Lessons for sustainable land use planning

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantified urban growth over the Rocuant-Andalien wetland, both executed and projected under the Metropolitan Urban Plan of Concepcion (MUPC), and quantified the observed effect and planned urban growth on the wetland protected area, geoforms and potential flooding based on the area affected by the last Tsunami.

Assessing land-use and -cover changes in relation to geographic factors and urban planning in the metropolitan area of Concepción (Chile). Implications for biodiversity conservation

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of major pressures to biodiversity defined from land-use and -cover changes, and evaluating their extent, distribution and correlations with geographical variables were evaluated using canonical ordination methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

A GIS-base exploration of the relationships between open space systems and urban form for the adaptive capacity of cities after an earthquake: The cases of two Chilean cities

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the relationship between an open space system and the urban form by focussing on the spatial context of two Chilean cities affected by earthquakes and found that the regularity of the grid and city density affect the adaptive capacity of cities, hence, resilience.
