Abstract:
Identifying the effects of urban sprawl on urban development is of strategic importance. This study takes 285 prefecture-level and above cities in China as research samples and empirically analyzes the heterogeneous impact of urban sprawl on economic development from 2009 to 2018. Results indicate the threshold effect of urban sprawl on economic development. That is, moderate urban sprawl has a significantly positive influence on economic development, whereas excessive urban sprawl has a significantly negative impact on economic development. The empirical analysis also identifies heterogeneities in the effects of urban sprawl on economic development. Compared with the sprawls of small- and medium-sized cities, those of large cities have a greater negative impact on economic development. Compared with the sprawls of cities dominated by the tertiary industry, those of cities dominated by the secondary industry have a greater negative impact on economic development. Findings of this study have important policy implications for scientific urban expansion, reasonable urban spatial layout, and sustainable urban economic development.

Abstract:
The authors begin with an overview of the causes and consequences of urban sprawl in the twentieth century, focusing in particular on lower transportation costs and self-sorting of the population. By sprawl, we will mean the tendency toward lower city densities as city footprints expand. They next focus on four issues that raise clear efficiency and equity concerns: unproductive congestion on roads, high levels of metropolitan car pollution, the loss of open space amenities, and unequal provision of public goods and services across sprawling metropolitan suburbs that give rise to residential segregation and pockets of poverty. Finally, they consider the trade-offs inherent in some policies commonly proposed to address urban sprawl. Throughout, a main theme of the discussion is that a full analysis of sprawl is made difficult by the lack of a usefully integrated economic model of urban economies. Along these lines, the authors conclude with some thoughts on possible future research agendas.

Abstract:
Beginning in the 1880s, transportation innovations allowed the City of Los Angeles to expand past natural barriers and develop the vast land beyond the city's core. The cable car and the electric trolley aided the expression of a Victorian residential ideal and urban aesthetic imported into Los Angeles from “back East” and the Midwest. Streetcar suburbs, the earliest form of urban flight, emerged on what were then the outer fringes of the city, initiating perpetual sprawl. While the city's massive growth in the 1920s as well as extensive post–World War II suburbanization cannot be ignored, such development has obscured the much earlier origins of sprawl in the historiography. This paper argues that Victorian Los Angeles instituted trends aimed at low-density, outward growth, which the streetcar enabled, Progressive planners reinforced, and which bore many of the drawbacks associated with modern urban sprawl.

Abstract:

Temat för denna studie är tätorters utveckling och regionala rumsliga inordning. Med utgångspunkt i det amerikanska begreppet sprawl, som brukar användas för att beskriva hur framför allt nordamerikanska städer har utvecklas, har statistik över tätorter i Örebros lokala arbetsmarknadsregion bearbetats och analyserats. Syftet med undersökningen har varit att relatera begreppet sprawls innebörder till de befolknings-, yt- och täthetsmässiga förändringar som tätorterna i Örebros lokala arbetsmarknadsregion genomgår under perioden 1980-2005 och den rumsliga formering som härmed genereras baserat på dem. Genom att utforska vad som avses med begreppet sprawl erhålls en tämligen klar bild av den stadsutveckling som begreppet beskriver. Denna beskrivning ligger sedan till grund för hur det statistiska materialet kan analyseras. Som sprawl förstås i denna undersökning befolknings- och yttillväxt i en central större ort där befolkningstätheten huvudsakligen kommer att öka, samt att närliggande system av tätorter också ökar sin befolkning och yta. Sammantaget ger detta en typ av sprawl som är rumsligt diskontinuerlig till sin karaktär genom att den består av flera från varandra fysiskt åtskilda platser som skiljer ut sig från andra tätorter genom att de ökar både sin befolkning och yta, alternativt har en variabel oförändrad medan den andra ökar. Analysen av det statistiska materialet över tätorterna i Örebro LA visar att sprawl förstådd på detta sätt återfinns i och runt Örebro tätort, medan mönstret inte går att finna hos övriga större tätorter i regionen.

Abstract:
Urban sprawl has been a hotly debated issue in urban development policy in recent decades. The discussion originated in the U.S.A. and has been transferred to Europe in recent years. In this paper we use existing quantitative measures that have been applied to other cities as well to generate indicators for whether or not urban sprawl is an important problem for the city of Vienna. The analysis clearly shows that the city has become less densely populated in the last 30 years. However, when comparing our results with those of other cities we see that Vienna scores quite favorably on practically all sprawl indicators.

Abstract:

Sprawl is a term widely used in the urban planning debate surrounding Los Angeles - but what does it really mean? It has been shown that the term is used to explain diverse phenomena and this paper investigates the concept from a historical perspective. The history seems to show that low-density suburbs have existed since the first cities we know of and that this might be more visible in Los Angeles only because of its large immigration.

Over the past 50 years the region around Los Angeles has gone from having the lowest population density in the U.S. to become one of the densest. This means that its reputation as the "sultan of sprawl" may no longer be valid and might also be a sign that the mobility of the car has reached its spatial boundary. One of the reasons that Los Angeles has become denser is the appearance of new cities in its periphery. This Resurrection of new cities in the periphery of existing cities is a phenomenon that has been called the "urbanization of suburbia" or "edge cities" and has been explained as a result of the transition to the post-industrial city. In this type of urban structure the boundaries between urban, suburban and rural can be hard to separate. One old and one new suburban city of Los Angeles – Mission Viejo and Santa Monica – are chosen for the case study to examine this at a local level. It turns out that the two suburban cities differ considerably in various aspects. The perhaps biggest difference between the cities can be found in how the land-uses are located in relation to each other. In Santa Monica, commercial areas are located along the main streets and the city is more mixed-use while in Mission Viejo the commercial areas are located at the outskirts of the city's exits to the highways. The cities also differ in other aspects of urban form and use such as architectural character, the structure of the streets and the accessibility to open space. Whether this can be considered representative of cities in general is not investigated in this paper and much more empirical research is needed to confirm or deny that but hopefully it gives an idea of how one of many similar new cities in the periphery of the Los Angeles urbanized landscape looks today.

Abstract:
The purpose of the present work is to provide a brief survey of the process of urban sprawl. What are its origins, how did it develop and why? Moreover, focus will be on envi-ronmental concerns in the framework of urban sprawl. The thesis concentrates on develop-ments in Europe and North America, where cities can look back on a long history of sprawl, and where processes have become very sophisticated. Based on a detailed description of the origins and history of urban sprawl in Europe and the United States, potentially sprawl-induced effects on the environment will be presented and discussed. In a further step, urban sprawl in two case studies (Stuttgart and Leipzig) will be highlighted and discussed with special focus on environ-mental effects. The purpose in doing so is basically to provide a basis and a starting point for further discussions concerning potential and actual effects of sprawl on environment con-cerns.

Many large financial, news, and social media companies process and stream large quantities of data to customers, either through the public Internet or on their own internal networks. These customers often depend on that data being delivered in a timely and resource-efficient manner. In addition, many customers subscribe to the same or similar data products (e.g., particular types of financial feeds, or feeds of specific social media users). A naive implementation of a data dissemination network like this will cause redundant data to be processed and delivered repeatedly, wasting CPU and bandwidth, increasing network delays, and driving up costs. In this dissertation, we present SPRAWL, a distributed stream processing layer to address the wide-area data processing and dissemination problem. SPRAWL provides two key functions. First, it is able to generate a shared and distributed multi-query plan that transmits records through the network just once, and shares the computation of streaming operators that operate on the same subset of data. Second, it is able to compute an in-network placement of complex queries (each with dozens of operators) in wide-area networks (consisting of thousands of nodes). This placement is optimal within polynomial time and memory complexity when there are no resource (CPU, bandwidth) or query (latency) constraints. In addition, we develop several heuristics to guarantee the placement is near optimal when constraints are violated, and experimentally evaluate the performance of our algorithms versus an exhausting algorithm. We also design and implement a distributed version of the SPRAWL placement algorithm in order to support wide-area networks consisting of thousands of nodes, which centralized algorithms cannot handle. Finally, we show that SPRAWL can make complex query placement decisions on wide-area networks within seconds, and the placement can increase throughput by up to a factor of 5 and reduce dollar costs by a factor of 6 on a financial data stream processing task.

Ann, Hartell. "Contextualizing Location Affordability: Urban Sprawl and Foreclosure." WU Vienna University of Economics and Business, 2015. http://epub.wu.ac.at/6096/1/sre%2Ddisc%2D2015_06.pdf.

Abstract:
Location affordability is a policy concept that links housing costs with transport costs, recognizing that assessing affordability should consider the combined costs incurred by a given location choice. As a more holistic perspective on affordability than traditional thresholds of housing costs alone, location affordability opens new possibilities for applied analyses that suggest a need for stronger coordination between housing and transport sectors in policy, planning, and project development. A range of housing and transport system configurations can result in affordable locations. For example, it may be that high housing cost burdens in densely developed urban markets can be softened by the use of low-cost transportation services, such as public transit, cycling, or walking. Intensely urban areas are usually more compatible with low-cost transport modes because distances are shorter and density concentrates people so as to make public transit feasible. Conversely, in areas where there is little pressure on land markets and development is at low densities, housing prices are usually lower. Yet such areas are inefficient and expensive to serve by public transit; at the same time, long distances between work and residential locations make walking or cycling infeasible. As a result, households rely on private automobiles for transport, which require substantial investment to purchase, maintain, and operate one or more vehicles. Between these two extremes are a variety of patterns where households¿ housing and transport costs reflect the joint configuration of the land development and transport systems in a city. This joint configuration, or urban form, creates an influential backdrop for household location decisions and affects household cost structures. In recent decades, scholars have focused on the phenomenon of urban sprawl, broadly understood to be ex-urban, low-density development, with segregated land uses and an orientation toward automobile use. Although there is general agreement on what sprawl is, there is weak consensus on a consistent definition appropriate for use in empirical studies. This is not merely an academic problem: If research is to provide evidence on location affordability to policy- and decision-makers, a coherent and clear conceptualization of the relevant dimensions of urban form is needed to identify specific strategies that support affordability. This paper makes two contributions to the affordability literature. First, it operationalizes location unaffordability using Census tract-level mortgage foreclosure rates during the recent housing crisis as an outcome measure. From this perspective, foreclosures are an observable effect of some combination of factors that resulted in a dwelling unit becoming unaffordable such that the homeowner defaults on a home mortgage. This is in contrast to typical methods that accept normative thresholds for affordability (i.e. 30% of household income). Second, it uses multi-dimensional measures of urban form--recently developed by Andrea Sarzynski, George Galster, and Lisa Stack (2014)-to estimate the effect of particular patterns of development on affordability. These data are combined with demographic and household cost data in a series of spatial regression models for 35 US cities that exhibited the greatest changes in their development patterns over the preceding decade (1990s).

Abstract:
Driving down the streets you call home, through the hills you would hike and sled as a kid, by the rivers and ponds you swam and fished in; you realize that every trip made is to a place that is less and less like home. Entire ranches have been subdivided. The mom and pop stores have been replaced by corporate chains. Asphalt has been laid, lanes have been added, streets have been punched, and bridges have been erected. The open space and privacy that everyone moved there for is dwindling; the American Dream is deteriorating. Is sprawl unavoidable due to the inevitable growth our society demands or can we live and grow more efficiently, more sustainably? The desire to achieve a better life has broken down our city walls and depleted our resources. "The growth of the world population will lead to a tremendous demand for space, not only for buildings but also for farmland and areas reserved for nature." Even highway systems can't seem to outpace suburbia. "Why has a higher standard of living somehow failed to result in a better quality of life?" A considerable amount of architecture and the majority of land planning revolves around the concept of the automobile. "Too many architects are becoming proponents of sprawl and the one-size-fits-all mentality that is strangling the earth." In rural Montana, people build where they can drive; if one cannot drive there, someone will cut a road or build a bridge. In urban Montana, zoning has tied people to their cars due to its demand that different uses be divided throughout a given city. "People say they do not want to live near where they work, but that they would like to work near where they live." What if we could uproot where people live, work, shop, exercise, and gather; rearrange their locations; then realign them in a community that enables a proficient life, with less pollution, traffic, stress, and resources used? Obviously, this isn't feasible due to cost and the chaos of displacement. This thesis is intended to analyze the way we live, build, and move from place to place while destroying the reason why we live where we do. This thesis will dissect transportation issues broadly in the United States and specific to the Missoula Valley and ultimately argue for the position of Missoula implementing a new model for the way it moves and grows. If realized, this process of rewiring will result in a series of incremental changes that have the ability to create a prototypical status for Missoula amongst other Montana and Northwestern cites that is unprecedented with regards to transportation as a solution to sprawl.

A dispetto di un annunciato, ma mai verificatosi, declino epocale del proprio ruolo, le realtà urbane continuano a presentarsi come un luogo privilegiato di crescita economica e di sperimentazione sociale e culturale, e si rivelano oggi autonome protagoniste, inserendosi nei circuiti economici innovativi, attirando dall’esterno nuove risorse, finanziarie ed umane, ed incrementando flussi turistici e culturali. Molte operazioni di riqualificazione di siti industriali e portuali sono state completate, producendo effetti positivi nell’attrazione di nuove attività e di investimenti e benefici in termini di miglioramento della qualità urbana. Nonostante la prefigurazione di realtà in cui la diffusione delle tecnologie telematiche e le forme di produzione e comunicazione immateriale, avrebbero determinato decentramenti e indifferenze localizzative, nelle città si assiste ad una rinnovata concentrazione delle più importanti funzioni politiche, direzionali, strategiche e finanziarie, nonché ad una consolidata importanza delle interazioni face-to-face, che restano un fattore rilevante per la costituzione di reti funzionali ad attività lavorative. Questi temi hanno caratterizzato la Sessione Rigenerazione urbana vs Sprawl. In the last 15 years, central urban areas demonstrated a particular vitality and an amazing capacity to put in place recovery strategies. In spite of an announced, but never happened, epochal decline of their role, urban realities continue to present themselves like a privileged place of economic growth and social and cultural experimentation. They appear as independent protagonists, inserting themselves in innovative economic circuits, attracting new finance and human resource from the outside, increasing tourist and cultural flows. A lot of industrial and port sites renovation have been completed having a positive effect in attracting new activities, investments and improvement of urban quality. In spite of forecasts of a reality in which the broadcast of technologies and immaterial form of production and communication would have led to decentralization and indifference as to localization, inside the city, there is a refocusing of the most important political, strategic, management and financial functions, as well as consolidation of the importance of interactions “face – to – face”, that are a really important factor for the constitution of a new functional network and work activities. These themes have characterized the Session Urban Regeneration vs Sprawl.

Abstract:
The territory is configured by different urban models. During the last decades the tendency in many European countries has been forward to an urban sprawl development model. This kind of development causes several economic, social and environmental effects. This paper is focused on studying the environmental effects of the urban sprawl model for all municipalities of Valencia. These effects are measured over a set of 14 environmental indicators. First of all, an urban sprawl index is calculated by means of the Principal Component Analysis technique from the three more characteristic variables of the sprawl phenomenon. Finally, a regression model with spatially correlated effects is formulated with the aim of estimating the effects of the urban sprawl model on the environmental indicators. It is concluded that the sprawl model causes significant effects on most of the environmental indicators.http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIGeo2017.2017.6622

Abstract:
Wollongong’s geographic proximity to the southern sprawl of Sydney, accessible transport and cultural diversity have been an attractor for many inward bound creative migrants, helping it diversify away from its industrial past. Wollongong City Council, understanding the importance of the creative industries, has been very proactive in ensuring that the heart of the city has been well and truly activated by sectors of these industries, while the University of Wollongong and its Innovation Campus have also proved a boon to both specialist and embedded creatives. Wollongong maintains a balance between traditional creatives and newer tech-oriented operatives, most with local, national and international suppliers and clients.

Abstract:
Foliar delivery of herbicides is a common means for plant management in aquatic environments. Though this technique is decades old, little is known about vegetative spray retention relative to this application method. A more complete understanding of maximizing herbicide retention could lead to improved plant management while simultaneously decreasing pesticide load in aquatic environments. Therefore, outdoor mesocosm experiments were conducted in 2020 to evaluate the effect of adjuvant type on foliar spray retention in waterhyacinth [Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms]. Additionally, the effect of carrier volume on spray retention in waterhyacinth, waterlettuce (Pistia stratiotes L.), and giant salvinia (Salvinia molesta D.S. Mitchell) was documented. Spray deposition did not differ among the nine adjuvants tested; however, spray retention was reduced 6% to 11% when an adjuvant was excluded from the spray solution. The effect of carrier volume on spray retention in waterhyacinth, waterlettuce, and giant salvinia was also investigated. Decreases in spray retention were most sensitive to increased carrier volume in waterhyacinth, followed by giant salvinia and waterlettuce. Among species, spray retention potential, as determined by intercept estimates, was greatest in waterlettuce and giant salvinia regardless of carrier volume. Asymptotes estimates for waterhyacinth, waterlettuce, and giant salvinia were 33%, 46%, and 79% spray retention, respectively. In other words, spray retention was the lowest and remained relatively constant at these values for the high carrier volumes tested (935 and 1,870 L ha⁻¹), which were likely due to the presence of pubescence on leaves and flatter leaf architecture represented by waterlettuce and giant salvinia compared to the glabrous vertical leaves of waterhyacinth. Future research will evaluate these concepts under field condition.
