Urban Structure and Energy—A Review (2008, methodology): “Ewing et al. (2002) use a sprawl index based on numerous measures.”
The urban heat island effect and city contiguity (2015, unknown): “…perspective (Oke, 1982; Coutts et al., 2001), they can provide bene ﬁ ts,suchasimprovingair quality, increasing the feasibility for public transit, decreasing energy consumption and promoting more active lifestyles, when compared to more sprawling morphologies (Ewing, Pendall, & Chen, 2002).”
Measuring urban sprawl and exploring the role planning plays: A shanghai case study (2017, unknown): “Then, Ewing et al. (2002) extend the indices with a wider degree of variability and use the principal component analysis (PCA) to cluster the sprawl areas.”
Compactness versus Sprawl (2015, methodology): “Early on, Ewing, Pendall, and Chen (2002) also developed sprawl indices that like Galster’s were multidimensional, but they demonstrated a wider degree of variability among metropolitan areas.”
Jobs-Housing Balance in an Era of Population Decentralization: An Analytical Framework and a Case Study (2010, background): “In particular, the actual rates and patterns of population decentralization are likely to be shaped by the history of development of the city and people’s lifestyle and values, which may differ widely even within the same country (Ewing et al., 2002).”
