Besides the investigations into the basic elements of the ecological spatial networks : the ecological matrix areas, corridors of barriers and also the biocores and buffer zones, the analysis of the edge-zones, the so-called ecotons
, is an increasingly popular topic of landscape ecology. The ecological role of the edge zones is proportional to the contrast between the ecological properties of the areas they separate. The ecological contrast is the sharpest possible round the town outskirts. - (ZK)

The eco-environmental guarantee for China's urbanization process

The eco-environmental guarantee for China's urbanization process
China ; Ecology ; Environment ; Forecast ; Sustainable development ; Urban ecology ; Urbanization
Studying the change of resources consumption and eco-environmental carrying capacity are of importance to the sustainable development of urbanization. Based on the China's economic and social statistical data from 1950 to 2006, the ecological
footprint, ecological footprint intensity, ecological deficit and surplus, and eco-environment quality comprehensive index are calculated, the correlation between urbanization and eco-environmental change is analyzed and the eco-environmental guarantee
for China's urbanization in 2030 is forecasted.

Marginalia : aesthetics, ecology, and urban wastelands

Marginalia : aesthetics, ecology, and urban wastelands
Applied ecology ; Biodiversity ; Ecosystem ; Esthetics ; Marginal area ; Urban ecology ; Vegetation ; Wasteland ; Wilderness
theoretically nuanced and historically grounded conception of the intersections between critical cultural discourses and recent advances in urban ecology might provide a useful counterpoint to narrowly utilitarian approaches to urban nature.
This article considers wastelands or anomalous spaces of urban nature as an interdisciplinary terrain that extends from renewed interest in urban biodiversity to alternative conceptions of landscape authenticity. It is suggested that a more

Power, nature, and the city. The conquest of water and the political ecology of urbanization in Guayaquil, Ecuador: 1880-1990

Power, nature, and the city. The conquest of water and the political ecology of urbanization in Guayaquil, Ecuador: 1880-1990
Collective facilities ; Ecuador ; Guayaquil ; Historical geography ; Marketing channel ; Sanitation improvement ; Urbanization ; Viability ; Water ; Water management
The A. attempts to reconstruct the urbanization process as a political and an ecological process. In Guayaquil, water becomes subject to an intense social struggle for control and access. The A. documents and analyzes the historical geography
of water control in the context of the political ecology of the urbanization. The urbanization process is written from the perspective of the drive to domesticate nature's water and the necessity to push the ecological frontier outward as the city expands.

This review considers the development of wall ecology, highlighting the key characteristics of walls that have been found to influence their ability to support species, with a focus on higher plants. It then examines the kinds of plant assemblages

This paper attempts to demonstrate the urban ecological conditions of Debrecen (E-Hungary) through the analysis of the pattern of built-up areas in this major city of the Great Hungarian Plain. In order to reveal these conditions a joint study
of urban climate and the related pattern of the built-up areas were carried out. - (Zoltán Kovács).

The urban political ecology of post-industrial Scottish towns : examining Greengairs and Ravenscraig

The urban political ecology of post-industrial Scottish towns : examining Greengairs and Ravenscraig
Applied ecology ; Community ; Marginality ; Political ecology ; Scotland ; Social deprivation ; Social geography ; Toxic waste ; United Kingdom ; Waste treatment
This article examines the urban political ecology of post-industrial Scottish towns (Greengairs and Ravenscraig) with the goal of unravelling the understanding and the coping mechanisms of environmentally deprived residents. The towns are permeated
by a widespread, often dissimulated, political ecology that is nonetheless always present. Empirical results demonstrate that a more comprehensive handling of the political ecology of the urban is crucial in order to halt the sources of marginalisation
and ecological degradation.

Factorial ecology and the South African city: some problems and prospects

Factorial ecology and the South African city: some problems and prospects
The factorial ecology approach to urban analysis has recently been subject to widespread criticism. These criticisms have focussed both on the conceptual foundation of factorial ecology and on the application of factorial techniques to problems
of spatial socio-economic differentiation. It is shown that many of the problems inherent in the technique are compounded in the South African urban context. (L'A.).
