Landscape and Urban Planning is concerned with conceptual, scientific,
and design approaches to land use. It emphasizes ecological
understanding and a multi-disciplinary approach to analysis, planning and
design. The journal attempts to draw attention to the interrelated
nature of
problems posed by nature and human use of land.
Papers dealing with ecological processes interacting within urban areas,
and between these areas and the surrounding natural systems which
support them, will be considered. Manuscripts in which specific problems
such as social and cultural approaches to landscape issues are examined
are welcome.
Topics might include but are not limited to
landscape ecology, landscape
planning and landscape design.
Landscape ecology examines how heterogeneous combinations of
ecosystems are structured, how they function and how they change.Landscape planning examines the various ways humans structure
their
land use changes. Landscape design involves the physical strategies and
forms by which land use change is actually directed.
The journal is based
on the premise that research linked to practice will ultimately improve the
human made landscape.
