TL;DR: In this article, the authors map global annual urban dynamics from 1985 to 2015 at a 30'm resolution using numerous surface reflectance data from Landsat satellites and find that global urban extent has expanded by 9,687'km2 per year.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The scenario projections reveal that although global urban land continues to expand rapidly before the 2040s, China and many other Asian countries are expected to encounter substantial pressure from urban population decline after the 2050s.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the scientific literature to assess direct and indirect impacts of urban growth on habitat and biodiversity, finding direct impacts more in high-income countries while indirect impacts affect more land but are lesser studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Projecting global urban land expansion and heat island intensification through 2050
Journal ArticleDOI
A multi-type ant colony optimization MACO method for optimal land use allocation in large areas
TL;DR: Comparison indicates that MACO-MLA can yield better performances than the simulated annealing (SA) and the genetic algorithm (GA) methods and has an improvement of the total utility value over SA and GA methods.
