Measuring urban sprawl and exploring the role planning plays: A shanghai case study (2017, neutral): “cities, but recent studies across the globe have emerged, such as in Europe (Antrop, 2004; Kasanko et al., 2006), China (Deng and Huang, 2004; Zhang et al.”
To grow or to sprawl? Land Cover Relationships in a Mediterranean City Region and implications for land use management (2013, background): “This is even truer considering that several Mediterranean urban regions are encompassing (and often deforming) the boundaries of the administrative domains which contain the main city (Kasanko et al., 2006).”
Who Sprawls Most? Exploring the Patterns of Urban Growth across 26 European Countries (2012, background): “Due to the lack of internationally comparative data, very few empirical studies have systematically addressed these questions so far (EEA, 2011; Guérois and Pumain, 2008; Huang et al, 2007; Kasanko et al, 2006; Schneider and Woodcock, 2008).”
Global exposure to river and coastal flooding - long term trends and changes (2012, result): “This finding corresponds to empirical studies in the United States (Brueckner and Fansler, 1983) and Europe (Kasanko et al., 2006), who also show that the total urban surface area is an increasing function of population and income.”
The impact of European Cohesion Policy in urban and rural regions (2017, background): “In these contexts the effectiveness of the policy passes through the process of deep transformation occurring in modern cities, which are increasingly characterized by phenomena of suburbanization and the progressive transfer of people and economic activities towards the edge of the city (Kasanko et”
Urban land teleconnections and sustainability (2012, background): “The same holds true for European cities that are veering away from the prevailing picture of the compact city (25), with some becoming more dispersed while others shrink (26).”
Establishment success of invasive ring‐necked and monk parakeets in Europe (2009, background): “Our results suggest that parakeet establishment probability may increase even further in the future because global warming will cause a decrease in the number of frost days (IPCC, 2007) and because urbanization and human populations are still increasing (Kasanko et al., 2006).”
Changes in the Functional Composition of a Central European Urban Flora over Three Centuries (2010, background): “In Europe, land use often changed from agricultural to urban but also from seminatural to urban (Kasanko et al., 2006).”
