As a new form of landscape designing, the garden nightscape is an important part of the urban landscape planning and design. The scientific and reasonable method of design technology for the city garden nightscape can provide foundations and technical supports for the design of garden nightscape and the creation of excellent landscape. The study analyzes and summarizes the application of lighting source, landscape lamps and the landscape lighting technology in the garden. It is indicated that the modern garden nightscape shows the trend of comprehensive utilization of high efficiency, energy saving, low carbon ecology, lighting and decoration, and high technology.

With the development of the city, the urban parks of the red revolutionary culture have been gradually recognized by people. Red culture can arouse people's special memory for a period and a city, thus gradually applying to the urban landscape planning. Based on this, in this paper, in terms of terrain, water, artificial structure, light and shade, color and so on, the urban park landscape of the red revolutionary culture was planned and studied. At the same time, by using a large number of successful cases of domestic red landscape and foreign commemorative landscape, a way of thinking and method for the design of red landscape was explored. In addition, taking the Wuzhishan red cultural theme park as an example, the study was carried out, and the problems faced by the red culture theme park in the planning and design stage were expounded. Finally, the theory was applied to practice, thus providing an example for reference.

The landscape industry has become one of the industries with higher resource and energy consumption, and the implementation of urban low-carbon landscape construction is of great significance to improve the ecological environment. In this study, the method of low-carbon landscape construction was studied from two aspects including the carbon source control and carbon sink, as well as both direct and indirect effect. The results showed that the low-carbon landscape construction can be controlled from five aspects including landscape planning, landscape design, low-carbon landscape technology, low-carbon landscape behavior and low-carbon policy. Through a series of low-carbon measures, carbon emissions can be controlled at a reasonable level during the urban landscape construction, which also promotes the sustainable development of urban ecological environment.

In recent years, China’s urbanization process is accelerating day by day, as a part of urban construction, urban landscape design is of great significance to promote the healthy development of the city, especially the application of low-carbon concept to landscape design can highlight the era theme of green and environmental protection. This paper mainly discusses the relationship between low-carbon and urban landscape, the specific embodiment of low-carbon concept in landscape design and the application of low-carbon concept in urban landscape design for reference.

Abstract Context Urbanisation is an environmental filter for many species that leads to community homogenisation, with a few species inhabiting isolated patches (e.g. public and private gardens and parks) embedded within the urban landscape. Promoting biodiversity in urban areas requires understanding which species traits allow species to survive the urban landscape. Objectives The objective of this study was to assess how species traits and landscape factors combine to allow species functional groups to live in the city. Methods We used butterfly count data collected by volunteers in 24 gardens of Barcelona city, during 2018 and 2019. Species were clustered in functional groups according to their traits. We applied a multinomial choice model to test for the effect of the landscape on the different functional groups. Results Three functional groups became prevalent in the city while a fourth, containing most sedentary specialist species, was filtered out. Although the observed groups had similar species richness, abundances varied depending on urban landscape characteristics. Specialist sedentary specialists and medium mobile species were all favoured by patch connectivity; while the presence of mobile generalist species was only enhanced by habitat quality. Our results indicate that butterfly communities are more diverse in highly connected gardens. Conclusions Our study highlights the need of contextualised management with actions accounting for the species functional groups, rather than a management focused on general species richness. It demonstrates that urban landscape planning must focus on improving connectivity inside the city in order to diversify the community composition.

As the demand for visual quality of environment increases, visual analysis therefore plays progressively important role in current urban landscape construction and management. Guided by the City Image theory, this paper presents a covered scene index “X” to describe the visibility of the target scene, and formulates a digital analysis model based on ArcGIS and 3D simulation. This method is applied to the viewpoint analysis from the East Daming Road of the North Bund to the Oriental Pearl in Shanghai and optimized solutions are proposed according to the results. It turns out that this simple and objective technique can serve as a good tool for the reference of urban landscape planning and management.

Chapter 2 describes the Roman Empire in the fourth and early fifth centuries and important emperors of the period. Among imperial reforms was the introduction of a new form of coinage, the gold solidus. The chapter introduces the emperor Honorius’ important general of the western imperial troops, Stilicho, and his wife, Serena, who will figure in Melania and Pinian’s attempts at divestment. It describes the life of cities in that era, especially the city of Rome, and the role of Christianization in changing its urban landscape. Rome’s inhabitants were dependent on food brought from elsewhere and distributed to them by a system called the annona; disruption of the supply could lead to food riots, one of which plays a role in the couple’s attempts to divest. The building of churches and martyr shrines in and around Rome, importantly spurred by the emperor Constantine and his family in the early fourth century, later often became a cooperative venture between bishops (especially Damasus) and local elites. The cult of Saint Lawrence plays a significant role in the life of Melania: at his shrine or church, Pinian was persuaded to adopt a life of ascetic renunciation with her.

China is undertaking an unprecedented development of rapid urbanization, and a large number of rural people are pouring into cities. It is estimated that the proportion of China's urban population will reach 60% in 2030. In fact, China's ecological environment has already been severely damaged. To be specific, large areas of river basin have been polluted, and a great deal of farmland has been replaced. However, current landscape planning and design are not trying to solve these urban issues, on the contrary, it costs huge in pursuit of one-sided visual effects. It merely accelerates the deterioration of our living environment. Thus, returning to the basic production of land, returning to the original landscape design as the art of survival, bringing food planting back to people's daily lives, and creating a productive landscape in the city are the strategies of survival for human being. The article focuses on urban productive landscape, which reflects several issues, such as agricultural production, current urban lifestyles, environmental quality, etc. It summarizes that the urban productive landscape plays a positive role and has a great potential in terms of enhancing the environmental, social, and economic status. Problems faced in the specific process of implementations and corresponding solutions are also given in the end.
