Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • World War II
  • Statistics
  • Artificial intelligence

Yuji Murayama mostly deals with Urban planning, Urbanization, Land use, Environmental resource management and Impervious surface. His work on Urban ecosystem as part of his general Urban planning study is frequently connected to Metropolitan area, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His research integrates issues of Remote sensing, Remote sensing and Ecosystem services in his study of Urbanization.

His Land use research includes elements of Fuzzy logic and Geographic information system. His Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Unavailability, AM/FM/GIS, Census and Emergency management. His Impervious surface research focuses on Urban heat island and how it connects with Hydrology and Physical geography.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of landscape composition and pattern on land surface temperature: An urban heat island study in the megacities of Southeast Asia. (302 citations)
  • Drivers of urban growth in the Kathmandu valley, Nepal: Examining the efficacy of the analytic hierarchy process (166 citations)
  • Land evaluation for peri-urban agriculture using analytical hierarchical process and geographic information system techniques: A case study of Hanoi (140 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Yuji Murayama focuses on Land use, Urbanization, Urban planning, Metropolitan area and Environmental resource management. His work deals with themes such as Cartography, Geographic information system, Cover and Physical geography, which intersect with Land use. Yuji Murayama has included themes like Remote sensing, Sustainable development, Spatial ecology, Megacity and Sustainability in his Urbanization study.

His Urban planning study incorporates themes from Urban heat island and Environmental planning. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Impervious surface and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. The Environmental planning study combines topics in areas such as Population growth and Environmental protection.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Land use (23.72%)
  • Urbanization (20.55%)
  • Urban planning (17.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Urbanization (20.55%)
  • Physical geography (9.88%)
  • Urban planning (17.39%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Urbanization, Physical geography, Urban planning, Land use and Urban heat island. His research in Urbanization intersects with topics in Remote sensing, Landscape planning, Protected area and Water resource management. Yuji Murayama has researched Physical geography in several fields, including Impervious surface, Land surface temperature and Scale.

By researching both Urban planning and Metropolitan area, Yuji Murayama produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His work on Land cover is typically connected to Estimation as part of general Land use study, connecting several disciplines of science. His study looks at the intersection of Urban heat island and topics like Subtropics with Infill, Temperate climate and Spatial variability.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spatial Analysis of Surface Urban Heat Islands in Four Rapidly Growing African Cities (43 citations)
  • Bibliometric analysis of highly cited articles on ecosystem services. (38 citations)
  • The future of Southeast Asia’s forests (34 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • World War II
  • Statistics
  • Artificial intelligence

Yuji Murayama mainly investigates Land cover, Urbanization, Physical geography, Land use and Impervious surface. His studies in Land cover integrate themes in fields like Cartography, Environmental protection, Agriculture, Urban sustainability and Megacity. His studies deal with areas such as Protected area, Land surface temperature and Water resource management as well as Urbanization.

His Land use study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Urban planning. His Urban planning research incorporates elements of Land tenure, Service, Analytic network process and Environmental planning. His work investigates the relationship between Impervious surface and topics such as Urban heat island that intersect with problems in Spatial distribution.
