The case study is the third phase of an ongoing research project_the Hotspot Cities Project_at the McHarg Center for Urbanism and Ecology at the University of Pennsylvania. The first phase involved an audit of land use in the world’s biodiversity hotspots in relation to the Convention on Biological Diversity.1 The second involved mapping the projected 2030 urban growth of 463 cities in the hotspots, identifying the conflict between sprawl and endangered species. The set of 463 cities was then reduced to thirty-three by selecting the largest and fastest-growing of these cities in each respective hotspot, the so-called ‘hotspot cities’.2 Conservationists were then partnered with planners to represent these cities at a symposium at the University of Pennsylvania in June 2019 to share their experiences in regard to the conflict between urban growth and biodiversity occurring in their respective cities. In this third phase of the research, we take one of these hotspot cities, Bogotá, as a case study and_through a research-by-design process_ask whether conservation values and urban development can be symbiotic and how this can be explicitly reflected in the spatial planning of the city.","PeriodicalId":43606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Landscape Architecture","volume":"2 1","pages":"76 - 89"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83808596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many mountainous landscapes are now destinations for leisure and are being transformed by the fragmented development of infrastructure. What are the extended forms of urbanization in these mountains? How can we read the complex interplay of such forms under the pressure of tourism? Beyond reading from an aerial perspective, the author introduces an array of landscape-informed fieldwork methods based on travelling transects of multiscalar routes, represented through photography and cartography. The transects contribute to a more nuanced and holistic understanding of alpine landscapes, presented in the case study of Mount Gongga of the Hengduan Mountains. Included in global travel narratives of the twentieth century, this Chinese alpine zone has recently experienced a dramatic transformation, providing a territory for testing the methods and, furthermore, for raising a question: Could this landscape-informed perspective open up other ways of reading and strategies to adapt urbanization to alpine landscapes?","PeriodicalId":43606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Landscape Architecture","volume":"146 1","pages":"20 - 33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77579679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Raxworthy","doi":"10.1080/18626033.2021.1948199","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/18626033.2021.1948199","url":null,"abstract":"Modern urban planning treats cities as orderly composites of homogenous land uses, however, like a rich quilt, the urban landscape is an amalgam of different social, ecological and material areas or ‘patches’, a term used in urban ecology. Urban designers, landscape architects and architects may be familiar with urban and landscape analysis systems such as McHarg’s ‘layer cake’, the figure-ground, typology and urban morphological studies, however Patch Atlas offers a novel way of representing the social and ecological complexity of the urban realm, which is called ‘heterogeneity’ by landscape ecologists. The particular backgrounds of the authors of Patch Atlas_two urban ecologists and two designers_frame the intention of the book: Victoria Marshall is a landscape architect, founder of Till Design and at the National University of Singapore, Mary Cadenasso is a landscape and urban ecologist at the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at UC Davis, Steward Pickett is a plant and urban ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies at Arizona State University and Brian McGrath is an urban designer at the Parsons School of Design and founder of Urban-Interface. Correspondingly, the Patch Atlas originates from an inquiry that attempts to conceptualize the totality of the urban system from the perspective of ecology, and urban ecology in particular, providing an opportunity for designers to engage with an ecologically rigorous framing of urban heterogeneity as a system for design. This system is where places that were treated as homogeneous by land use are revealed_to varying degrees, which is the subject of the book_as actually heterogeneous when considered in terms of land cover. The book has three parts: the motivation and description of the system, the application in the form of a case study and a conclusion speculating on the nature of the integration of ecology and design. As a book, Patch Atlas is a handsome slim volume of 128 pages with a graphic nature, with brief chapters explaining their system, and maps, graphs and zoomed patches floating in white space, and a single photograph per chapter typifying each. In essence, Patch Atlas consists of two components. First, the Gwynns Falls watershed in Baltimore is extensively mapped as a set of patches (which are delineations of areas based on relative abundance of specific urban cover elements such as buildings, vegetation and surface materials) combined and represented to reveal patterns in their organization. Then these patterns are analysed and interpreted in the text to address a fundamental question the authors identify about cities as ‘complex hybrid socio-ecological systems’ (p. 2): ‘What are the links between the amount and distribution of various elements of urban form and ecological and social processes?’ (p. 2). The authors propose a new land cover classification tool they call HERCULES, which stands for ‘High Ecological Resolution Classification for Urban Landscapes a","PeriodicalId":43606,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Landscape Architecture","volume":"74 1","pages":"90 - 91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86301487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
