Calibrating and validating the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) urban cooling model: case studies in France and the United States

Understanding the cooling service provided by vegetation in cities is important to inform urban policy and planning. However, the performance of decision-support tools estimating heat mitigation for urban greening strategies has not been evaluated systemat ...

Using Open-Access Data to Explore Relations between Urban Landscapes and Diarrhoeal Diseases in Côte d’Ivoire

Jérôme Chenal, Vitor Pessoa Colombo, Martí Bosch Padrós, Jürg Utzinger

Unlike water and sanitation infrastructures or socio-economic indicators, landscape features are seldomly considered as predictors of diarrhoea. In contexts of rapid urbanisation and changes in the physical environment, urban planners and public health man ...

A spatially explicit approach to simulate urban heat mitigation with InVEST (v3.8.0)

Jérôme Chenal, Stéphane Joost, Martí Bosch Padrós

Mitigating urban heat islands has become an important objective for many cities experiencing heat waves. Despite notable progress, the spatial relationship between land use and/or land cover patterns and the distribution of air temperature remains poorly u ...

Evaluating urban greening scenarios for urban heat mitigation: a spatially explicit approach

Jérôme Chenal, Stéphane Joost, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

Urban green infrastructure, especially trees, are widely regarded as one of the most effective ways to reduce urban temperatures in heatwaves and alleviate the adverse impacts of extreme heat events on human health and well-being. Nevertheless, urban plann ...

Spatiotemporal patterns of urbanization during the last four decades in Switzerland and their impacts on urban heat islands

Martí Bosch Padrós

Urbanization is nowadays a global phenomenon which is increasingly concentrating the world's population in cities. In Switzerland, recent decades have seen an unprecedented loss of arable land due to urbanization, which has triggered amendments in the spat ...

A New Approach to the Collection and Spatial Analysis of Land Values in Lomé and Yaoundé

Jérôme Chenal, Armel Firmin Kemajou Mbianda, Martí Bosch Padrós

Understanding the land market is crucial when analyzing the spatial dynamics of cities. Spatial models, which are widely used to describe the growth of cities, are underdeveloped in Africa, due in part to the lack of urban data and/or the difficulty of col ...

Spatiotemporal patterns of urbanization in three Swiss urban agglomerations: insights from landscape metrics, growth modes and fractal analysis

Jérôme Chenal, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

Context Urbanization is the most important form of landscape change and is increasingly affecting biodiversity and ecosystem functions. Understanding how landscape patterns change in space and time is central to the evaluation of the environmental impacts ...

PyLandStats: An open-source Pythonic library to compute landscape metrics

Martí Bosch Padrós

Quantifying the spatial pattern of landscapes has become a common task of many studies in landscape ecology. Most of the existing software to compute landscape metrics is not well suited to be used in interactive environments such as Jupyter notebooks nor ...

Assessing spatial temporal patterns of ecosystem services in Switzerland

Jérôme Chenal, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

Despite the importance of understanding the historical dynamics of ecosystem services (ES), littleresearch has focused on a historical, spatially explicit, assessment of ES supply. This research is aimed at understanding the spatial patterns and potential ...

Assessing motorcycle taxi activity in Cameroon using GPS devices

Jérôme Chenal, Armel Firmin Kemajou Mbianda, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

The emergence of motorcycle taxis as a mode of urban transport in Africa can be seen as a bottom-up response to the larger problem of a demand that is not sufficiently met by public services. Transcending the debates regarding the relevance of this solutio ...
