Description :
Urban change is the result of some very complex socio-economic processes and spatial dynamics. Such transformations can be studied on various geographical scales in Spanish provincias, French départements and the Italian provinces around the mediterranean sea (latin arc). Relations between urban change and environmental impact, recent change in land use, and environmental effects of urban traffic are studied. Urban growth has a disharmonious character compared to the demographic evolution. Development trends and future scenarios are identified.
