This edited volume, The Dynamics of Urban Landscapes: Growth, Sustainability, and Community Engagement, brings together interdisciplinary perspectives on the changing structure, function, and meaning of urban landscapes. The book examines urban landscapes through multiple lenses, including place identity, cultural heritage, globalization, urban revitalization, carbon storage, sustainable material use, light pollution, remote sensing, artificial intelligence, planting design, soil ecology, groundwater management, computational design, ecological architecture, climate-adaptive planning, landscape identity, and human well-being. Together, the sixteen chapters demonstrate that urban landscapes are not static spatial entities, but evolving systems that require integrated, evidence-based, and context-sensitive approaches.
