Data-driven predictions of summertime visits to lakes across 17 US states

Erik Nelson et al.

Summary: Using a large dataset of US lakes, the study examined the relationship between lake visits, water clarity, landscape features, and amenities using machine learning techniques. The research found that increasing water clarity by one meter was associated with at least a 7% increase in lake visits. Additionally, lake amenities such as beaches and boat launches were stronger predictors of visits than water clarity.

The spatial dimension of coal phase-out: Exploring economic transformation and city pathways in Poland

Weronika Dragan et al.

Summary: The article aims to illustrate the process and paths of reindustrialization in (post-) mining towns within the economic transformation of the Katowice conurbation. Economic transitions in post-socialist cities located in old industrial regions face the challenge of decarbonization aligned with the principles of sustainable development and just transition. The research focuses on cities characterized by different economic development models and applies a functional and spatial approach to examine brownfield investment potential. Cartographic analysis and index methods are used to analyze spatial and economic changes. The examples highlight the complexity of the reindustrialization process in the Katowice conurbation and the potential winners and losers resulting from initial transformation choices. However, achieving a relatively favorable economic situation does not guarantee its continuation in later stages of city development.

Is the Naturalization of the Townscape a Condition of De-Industrialization? An Example of Bytom in Southern Poland

Maksymilian Solarski et al.

Summary: This article discusses the emergence of shrinking cities in Central and Eastern Europe after 1990, focusing on how this phenomenon is a result of rapid de-industrialization. Using the example of spatial development in the (post-) mining city of Bytom in southern Poland, the need for a multifaceted approach to address this issue is highlighted. The article emphasizes the importance of analyzing these contemporary changes in the context of previous periods and introduces two methods to describe these changes, including a method by A. Macias which focuses on the degree of naturalization/anthropogenization of space.
