Urban Climate Improvement and Spatial Pattern Optimization Under a Multi-Objective Orientation
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the intensification of global climate change and the acceleration of urbanization, issues such as insufficient urban climate resilience and unbalanced environmental equity have become increasingly prominent. How to optimize urban spatial form and enhance ecosystem service capabilities through scientific planning strategies has become a focus of common concern in academia. This Topic focuses on the key issues of urban climate adaptation and sustainable development, aiming to gather cutting-edge research results and provide theoretical and practical support for addressing the challenges of various urban ecological and environmental problems.
In this Topic, original research articles and reviews are welcome to be submitted. Research areas may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Interactions between urban green infrastructure planning, green space layout, and climate resilience, with a focus on urban environmental equity.
- Relationships between built environment, urban vitality, and wind–thermal environment, exploring spatial form optimization strategies for climate improvement.
- Assessment methods integrating ecological risk and spatial patterns to support multi-objective urban planning decisions.
- Case studies on multi-targeted approaches balancing climate adaptation, environmental equity, and spatial efficiency in diverse urban contexts.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
