Updating the Medalus‐ESA Framework for Worldwide Land Degradation and Desertification Assessment
The environmentally sensitive area (ESA) methodology (originally proposed in the framework of MEDALUS–Mediterranean Desertification and Land Use—a series of international cooperation research projects funded by the European Union) is used worldwide to identify 'sensitive areas' that are potentially threatened by land degradation and desertification (LDD). The distinctive outcome of this approach is a multidimensional index (the ESA index) compose…

Long-term growth and metropolitan spatial structures
Urban forms are increasingly reflective of socio-economic change in metropolitan regions. The present study illustrates an original approach to identify latent mechanisms of urban growth through the analysis of metropolitan spatial structures and their proximate drivers of change. Urban transformations are evaluated here using built-up patches as the elementary analysis unit and background socio-economic attributes at four stages of the “city lif…
