The evolution of a city is significantly shaped by the design of its urban landscape. The advancement of artificial intelligence has substantially increased convenience for individuals. This research proposes an urban landscape layout model powered by artificial intelligence that automatically generates urban landscape design based on deep learning (URDDL) with two dimensions: emotional tendency and urban landscape appraisal. The input image represents land use and surrounding road conditions, while the output image depicts the selection of the main entrance and the internal spatial function layout. The Pix2Pix model is trained to learn the internal function layout based on varying land use and road conditions. Additionally, a domain-specific dictionary is constructed using an existing semantic resource vocabulary, where positive and negative sentiment words are compared with their corresponding sentiment values, focusing on categories such as Stimulate, Sense, and Action. Experimental results indicate that the absolute average error of the URDDL model is 91.31%, with a maximum error of 96.87%. The degree of fit is highly appropriate for evaluating the emotional prediction of urban landscapes. The findings demonstrate that the URDDL model outperforms traditional design methods regarding generated results, suggesting its potential for future applications in automated landscape design.

Wetlands are a crucial component of the earth's socio-ecological structure, providing significant ecosystem services to people. Changes in wetlands, driven by both natural and manmade causes, are altering these ecosystem services. Although Bangladesh is developing, natural resources like wetlands are changing in the country at different scales, with urban areas experiencing significant impacts.

Background: Assessing the current status and identifying the mechanisms threatening endangered plants are significant challenges and fundamental to biodiversity conservation, particularly for protecting Tertiary relict trees and plant species with extremely small populations (PSESP). Ulmus elongata (Ulmus, Ulmaceae) with high values for the ornamental application, is a Tertiary relict tree species and one of the members from PSESP in China. Currently, the wild populations of U.

With increasing urbanization pressures, there is an urgent need to improve the urban residents' well-being and achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Ecosystem services (ESs) are vital for human well-being (HW) and survival, providing essential benefits like clean water while supporting the SDGs. However, understanding the impact mechanism of urban ESs on the HW under the framework of the SGDs in a changing world remains challenging.

Urban flooding poses a significant risk to cities worldwide, exacerbated by increasing urbanization and climate change. Effective flood risk management requires comprehensive assessments considering the complex interaction of social, economic, and environmental factors. This study developed an innovative Urban Flood Risk Index (FRI) to quantify and assess flood risk at the sub-catchment level, providing a tool for evidence-based planning and resilient infrastructure development.

Urban stormwater management is crucial for mitigating the impacts of flooding in urban areas, as it plays a vital role in protecting infrastructures, ensuring public safety, and preserving environmental quality. In this study, we develop a new method to quantify urban flood risk (UFR) by integrating the components of hazard magnitude and vulnerability. The hazard is assessed using a coupled SWMM-HEC-RAS 2D model, where the flooding rate calculated by SWMM at each node is automatically fed into HEC-RAS-2D.
