Landsat imageries (1993, 2007, and 2022) with Support vector machine classification techniques and Normalized difference vegetation index were used to analyze the ADP cover changes from 1993 to 2022. Besides, questionnaires, focused-group discussions, and interviews were employed to identify the drivers of ADP cover changes. The findings revealed that ADP cover witnessed substantial changes between 1993 and 2022 in the study area. ADP cover dramatically increased from 0.05 percent in 1993 to 24.53 percent in 2022, with a total gain of 40,788.97 ha. In contrast, cropland, grassland, and shrubland significantly decreased from 1993 to 2022, with a net loss of 23,111.63 ha, 18,479.23 ha, and 7942.44 ha, respectively. Hence, ADP was expanded considerably in the study area at the expense of cropland, grassland, and shrubland in the past 29 years. Soil infertility/acidity; land degradation; attractive benefits of ADP; increasing fuelwood demand; living condition improvement of ADP growers; and suitability of ADP with other land uses were identified as the top six drivers for ADP expansion. The innovative environmental rehabilitation and tree plantation experiences of the Awi-community should be upgraded and expanded to other areas.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80103709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A long-term monthly analysis of BSI and SVI in an urban area is needed for better land use planning. However, a few research works were available on BSI and SVI. The present research work evaluates the mean monthly land surface temperature (LST) and the monthly LST-BSI and LST-SVI correlation in Raipur City of central India using 254 Landsat satellite data from 1988 to 2019. April (37.11 °C) and January (24.11 °C) record the highest mean LST and lowest mean LST, respectively. Karl Pearson’s coefficient of correlation is used to correlate LST with BSI and SVI. Although both the indices develop a positive correlation (moderate) with LST, BSI (0.64) has a better value of correlation coefficient than SVI (0.39). The best LST-BSI correlation is found in August (0.77) followed by September (0.75), October (0.74), and July (0.72). The best LST-SVI correlation is also observed in August (0.50), followed by July (0.49) and September (0.48). The study indicates that a dry bare surface enhances the intensity of LST. The research may be considered a good case study for land use planners.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78210454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quantifying the UQoL is a complex task, due to its multidimensionality. This study empirically attempts to measure the degree of UQoL and tries to understand the geographical pattern, association, and heterogeneity of UQoL in the densely populated city of Siliguri in India. Spatial heterogeneity, in this context, is the diversity in how well people can live in various geographic units, such as neighborhoods or wards, within a city. This article evaluates the heterogeneity in UQoL using thirty-one indicators composed of seven criteria. Principal component analysis and average aggregation techniques were employed to construct the dimensional and synthetic UQoL indexes, which mapped the degree of spatial inequality among forty-seven wards. The findings revealed that Siliguri’s overall UQoL is alarmingly poor, with apparent geographic discrepancies. To further examine the spatial patterns and clusters of UQoL, an exploratory spatial data analysis approach was applied. The spatial autocorrelation using Moran’s I demonstrates a substantial clustering pattern of UQoL and other domains within the city’s neighboring units. The UQoL assessment provides evidence to assist in spatial planning and the development of sustainable urban policies.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80957182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper explores the importance of STRs relative to our understanding of the contemporary development of cities and neighborhoods. It does this by surveying the existing research literature on STRs and summarizing recent debates regarding the potential need for STR regulation. Part of this policy-focused discussion centers on Airbnb, the STR industry leader, and the available datasets related to its evolving operations. The paper also explores the insights that can be gained from STR research by presenting a case study of Airbnb’s footprint in Toronto. This regional analysis provides insight into the power of a joint consideration of STR activity together with broader urban-economic indicators, which speaks to the novel research opportunities that analysis of STR data makes possible. In sum, this paper argues that STR research is an appropriate target for the applied geography research community because of the practical need for business and public sector leaders to have a better understanding of the dynamics of this emerging industry, and the opportunity for new insight into urban-economic development more broadly that STR research makes possible.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"170 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77535705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
