Journal Title：Landscape And Urban Planning

Landscape and Urban Planning is an international journal aimed at advancing conceptual, scientific, and applied understandings of landscape in order to promote sustainable solutions for landscape change. Landscapes are visible and integrative social-ecological systems with variable spatial and temporal dimensions. They have expressive aesthetic, natural, and cultural qualities that are perceived and valued by people in multiple ways and invite actions resulting in landscape change. Landscapes are increasingly urban in nature and ecologically and culturally sensitive to changes at local through global scales. Multiple disciplines and perspectives are required to understand landscapes and align social and ecological values to ensure the sustainability of landscapes. The journal is based on the premise that landscape science linked to planning and design can provide mutually supportive outcomes for people and nature.

Landscape science brings landscape ecology and urban ecology together with other disciplines and cross-disciplinary fields to identify patterns and understand social-ecological processes influencing landscape change. Landscape planning brings landscape architecture, urban and regional planning, landscape and ecological engineering, and other practice-oriented fields to bear in processes for identifying problems and analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating desirable alternatives for landscape change. Landscape design brings plans, designs, management prescriptions, policies and other activities and form-giving products to bear in effecting landscape change. The implementation of landscape planning and design also generates new patterns of evidence and hypotheses for further research, providing an integral link with landscape science and encouraging transdisciplinary collaborations to build robust knowledge and problem solving capacity.

《景观与城市规划》是一本国际期刊，旨在促进对景观的概念、科学和应用理解，以促进景观变化的可持续解决方案。景观是可见的、综合的社会生态系统，具有可变的空间和时间维度。它们具有表现力的审美、自然和文化品质，人们以多种方式感知和重视，并引发导致景观变化的行动。景观在本质上越来越城市化，并且在生态和文化上对当地乃至全球范围内的变化都很敏感。需要多学科和多视角来理解景观并调整社会和生态价值，以确保景观的可持续性。该杂志的前提是与规划和设计相关的景观科学可以为人和自然提供相互支持的成果。

景观科学将景观生态学和城市生态学与其他学科和跨学科领域结合起来，以识别模式并了解影响景观变化的社会生态过程。景观规划将景观设计、城市和区域规划、景观和生态工程以及其他面向实践的领域引入到识别问题以及分析、综合和评估景观变化的理想替代方案的过程中。景观设计带来了规划、设计、管理方案、政策和其他活动以及赋予形式的产品来影响景观变化。景观规划和设计的实施还为进一步研究提供了新的证据和假设模式，提供了与景观科学的完整联系，并鼓励跨学科合作以建立强大的知识和解决问题的能力。
