Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering focuses on the analysis of urban environmental challenges and engineering solutions. Recent articles examine urban planning, sustainable city development, and the management of urban green spaces. Topics include the impact of urban parameters on flooding and geological hazards, the role of urban trees in carbon storage, and the dynamics of urban heat islands. The journal also covers environmental engineering aspects such as municipal solid waste management, stormwater management using green infrastructure, and the assessment of soil and groundwater contamination from urban activities. Additionally, it explores the influence of transportation systems on urban sprawl and the removal of industrial pollutants from wastewater.
