The high altitude and the associated steepness of the slopes pose numerous challenges for spatial development. Furthermore, due to their specific natural characteristics, the Alps constitute a region worthy of preservation, which brings additional considerations in the field of political decision-making. All these facts demand increased political and planning coordination.Debates about spatial development in the Alps, hardly address the regions’ topographic characteristics and their consequences. Based on a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) slope analysis, I argue that topographic factors and their implications for municipalities in the Alpine region have been underestimated in spatial development. In this article, an analytical mapping of the Alpine region based on topographic arguments addresses two research questions: What potentials and limits does slope data reveal for the Alps as a living space? How can this analysis help to identify potentials for spatial development in the Alps?I introduce the Topographic Potential Areas (TPA) and an associated TPA quotient, which relates the potential area based on slope steepness to the total area of the municipal territory. These findings serve as a basis for further analyses to facilitate a sustainable spatial organization of the Alpine region.Keywords: applied geomorphologyfeature extractionGISmappingspatial planningDisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).

The stations occupy the urban core and periphery of the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area. Concentration time series were evaluated relative to stationary sources of sulfur dioxide, the urban core, and shifting wind patterns. Nine large sources emitting more than 100 tons of sulfur dioxide per year were identified in the study area, as were 60 additional facilities emitting between 1 ton/year and 99 tons/year. The highest emitter, an electric power station, produced 4,921 tons of sulfur dioxide per year in 2021. Overall, sulfur dioxide concentrations were low, but periodically breached design standards downwind of large emitters. Hourly average sulfur dioxide concentrations ranged from a minimum of 0 parts per billion (ppb) at all monitoring stations to a maximum of 170.5 ppb at a station located approximately 1 km away from a mineral processing facility. However, monitoring stations located 2 km to 3 km away from, and periodically downwind of, other large emitters had much lower concentration spikes. This study: (1) shows the importance of stationary sources, as opposed to lengthy transport and extensive regional mixing, on sulfur dioxide concentrations in urban complexes; and (2) a need for source-oriented monitors to effectively document sulfur dioxide concentrations in urban air space.Key Words: sulfur dioxideurban air pollutionDallas-Fort WorthDisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).
