DOI: 10.1007/s10980-020-01075-9
Abstract: Urban sprawl typically consists of low-density urban development dominated by single-family housing and automobile-oriented land use patterns. Sprawl impacts landscape structure and composition, especially along the urban periphery. However, few studies have simultaneously examined sprawl… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2017.06.002
Abstract: Measuring the degree of urban sprawl largely depends on the local context and available data. This research establishes a multidimensional index which combines city expansion, urban compactness and urban form to measure sprawl. Urban planning,… read more here.
