Urban Land Use Change and Its Effect from the Perspective of Urban Niche

Publication: ICCREM 2016: BIM Application and Off-Site Construction

ABSTRACT

Urban expansion has led to the land use/cover change along with the continuously human colonization. The production and development of biological material has influenced by land use change. In recent years, more and more researches have been done by scholars as it has become a serious issue concerning the resource and environment damage. In this paper, urban land use change has been taken as the core problem based on the niche theory, and the land use change and its ecological effect research framework has been put forward by analyzing the definition and connotation of urban ecological niche. It analyzed the state and efficiency of resources and land and took Shanghai as an example for empirical research.
