The article presents the conclusion of the practical experience as well as the results of the author's research in the field of airport management, formulated in the context of the implementation of the investment of the Central Polish Airport. The subject of the considerations and implications is the process of designing the Airport Master Plan – AMP, which in the current situation should be modified in order to ensure effectiveness and efficiency of implementation and quality of results. At the beginning, AMP was characterized on the basis of a study concerning legal acts and selected standard documents, and a study of the quality and risk issues of the AMP was carried out. On the basis of the results obtained, conclusions have been formulated regarding the need for standardization and integration of the dynamic process of AMP design.

With the worsening ecological environment, urban landscape begins to focus on ecology theory in order to develop with balance. According to the current situation of the urban development, this paper, based on the theory of ecology, shows several ecological principles during urban landscape design process and then puts forward the evaluation system for urban landscape with intention for people to distinguish landscape quality. By analyzing urban landscape design based on ecology theory , it could be possible to realize the modern urban landscape meeting the needs of urban development and creating the harmony between human and nature.

The Master Plan for the Loughborough University of Technology is a 143-page document that gathers the work undertaken by the institution to become a university, thus benefiting from the educational policies derived from the 1963 Robbins report in Britain. Arup Associates authored in 1966 a proposal whose main characteristic is its ascription to an infinite grid strategy and a systematized project. The different diagrams and growth schemes represent the geometric synthesis of some compositional and constructive rules: three grids overlap to produce a germ drawing to which a growth pattern is added for its territorial extension. For the sake of flexibility and adaptability, the project tries to avoid architectural obsolescence through the achievement of a “universal space unit”. Hence, a “discipline” is established whose definition turns out to be a succession of limitations. Through the reconstruction of the design process for the Loughborough University, the multiple meanings of the limit concept are portrayed in parallel to its idea of ​​a continuous and endless campus. A strict internal order, an intentionally open reading of the territory and a constructive standardization produce a kind of visual exhaustion of the whole that could be understood as a limit of spatial nature.

ABSTRACT Outdoor spaces are important to sustainable cities because they accommodate outdoor activities and contribute greatly to the quality of urban living.During the last decade, interest in the assessment of thermal comfort has increased because of climate changes and increased heat stress in cities. Greenspaces that provide a pleasurable thermal comfort experience for users effectively improve their quality of livability and productivity. However, current investigations lack a general framework for the use of thermal comfort assessment, such as in making master plan or designing better greenspace. This paper discusses greenspace of Sam Ratulangi University Campus relating to thermal comfort. It provides knowledge of thermal comfort investigation and landscape design review. The results of thermal comfort assessment, among 11 observed plots, only greenspace at FMIPA is categorized as comfortablespot. Greenspaces at FAPET and FEB are not really comfortable, those at BNI and FKM A and FKM B are not comfortable and those at FATEK, FAPERTA, FISIP, FH, FKM A are categorized as very uncomfortable spots. We suggest some options for redesigningof uncomfortable and very uncomfortable greenspace spots.Keywords: greenspace, outdoor, termal comfort

Purpose: This article aims to develop the landscape planning and design decisions of Derepazarı within the scope of the Eastern Black Sea Tourism Master Plan strategies. Method: The method of the study has been designed, taking into account the features of the district with three different landscape features. The first stage of the method is to examine the planning strategies over the area. The second stage is the natural-cultural data analysis. The third stage consists of developing landscape planning and design suggestions for the study area and examining the suggestions by the study groups. Findings: As a result of the studies, the following data were obtained: Derepazarı preserves its natural and cultural features, the tourism master plan is included in the scope of the plateau corridor, the presence of local flavours, the agricultural production is carried out with traditional methods, the intact coast, the presence of usable landscape character quality, the lack of tourism master plan of Derepazarı, the lack of different types of tourism activities, the lack of presentation, lack of urban image, the fact that recreational areas prevent different recreational activities, and individuals living in the city lack of urban living manners. Conclusion: The results of the study based on the hypothesis, which is the fact that “the natural-cultural data analysed successfully contributes to the tourism of the region by directing the landscape design process and enabling the development of original and sustainable designs,” showed that landscape analysis can positively affect the planning/design process and that natural and cultural landscapes can be included in planning/design by establishing a conservation-use balance. All kinds of planning/design to be carried out in this context will improve the tourism of Derepazarı while ensuring the sustainability of natural-cultural landscape values. While planning/designs made in line with the tourism planning strategies developed will contribute to the urban image of Derepazarı, it will also improve its economy by increasing its recognition under the influence of tourism.

While edible figs are grown agronomically for delicious fruit, many Ficus species have been commercialized for decorative, ornamental purposes. These horticultural Ficus varieties are used for interiorscape houseplant décor and for outdoor landscape design. This article provides guidelines for the identification and treatment of diseases that may be encountered during the commercial production of ornamental Ficus. This 7-page fact sheet was written by D. J. Norman and Shad Ali, and published by the UF Department of Plant Pathology, August 2013. http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/pp308
