    This investigation was conducted the relation between open space and distribution of air temperature for mitigating severe climate during summer in Minburi District, Bangkok, Thailand. The result showed that the maximum air temperature was more distributive than the minimum air temperature. Air temperature at built-up area increased about 2-4°C in the afternoon and up to 1-1.5°C at early morning which is warmer than suburbs. From the regression equations the results of cooling ratio was showed as follows; 1. In the afternoon:-0.11-0.23°C/10%(green coverage), -0.12-0.24°C/10%(open space). At early morning:-0.05-0.12°C/10%(green coverage), -0.05-0.13°C/10%(open space). 2. In the case of relation between each coverage elements [°C/10%(coverage of each elements)]; In the afternoon:-0.24-0.26°C/10%(forest), -0.12-0.19°C/10%(grassland), -0.12-0.20°C/10%(paddy field). At early morning:-0.18°C/10%(forest), -0.09-0.15°C/10%(grassland), -0.33-0.44°C/10%(water surface), -0.07-0.17°C/10%(paddy field).

    In the study of landscape and regional environment, 3D (three dimensional) visualization technique of the terrain is a powerful tool for recognizing complicate data. 3D perspective image of the terrain is made from 2D (two dimensional) distribution of surface texture data and 2D altitude data and the method is called 3D terrain rendering. It usually deals with a vast amount of data and takes much time of computation in the transformation of axis and the painting routine.
    In the present study, a fast algorithm for 3D terrain rendering was developed and a personal computer based system using this algorithm was also made. First part of the fast rendering algorithm is consists of processes of affine transformation and“trapezoidification” of the texture data and the altitude data. In the next part, both texture and altitude data are mixed and a 3D perspective image is produced. The algorithm avoids the complicated computation of axis transformation and painting routine and achieves fast 3D rendering of the terrain image.
    Images of each steps of the rendering processes and example 3D images are shown. The quality of the rendered images was decent and comparable to the one of the workstation based system. The good availability of the present system will possibly enlarge the application areas of the 3D terrain rendering.

    To discribe the relationship between natural vegetation types of Japanese Islands (classified into 9 major types) and its environmental factors, Logit models were constructed by the analysis on Evironmental Geographic Information System (EGIS).
    Through these Logit Models, the distributions of 9 potential natural vegetation zones in Japanese Islands were estimated, and classified into a database, which contain particular actual vegetation distribution patterns.
    Using this result, human impacts on each vegetation zone were evaluated. For example, alpine vegetation zone is occupied only by naturalvegetation, and on the otherhand, hilly warm temparate vegetation zone is characterized by the distribution of coppice forest and urbanized land use in its actual situation. Result of Analysis suggests the necessity of reestablishing the EGIS including more detailed environmental informations.

    The relation between wildbirds distribution and land use pattern was analyzed in the Sayama City, Saitama Pref., and the factors which influenced the avifauna were discussed. In this study multivariate methods based on grid cell data were used. Our results showed that avian species were classified into three categories, those are forest species, riparian species, and species occurring between forest and urban area, and that the species richness of forest or riparian species positivery correlated with each habitat area. It appeared that Species belonging to the third category utilized several types of habtat.
    From the viewpoint of avian conservation, the area of the Sayama City was divided into several parts based on the avifauna and land use should be the key of ecological management.

    The relationship between spatial variation of plant communities and microscale landform was surveyed and analyzed in the floodplain of the Kokai-gawa River, Ibaragi Prefecture. Environmental factors influencing the relationship was also discussed. In hollows in the floodplain, the distance between the surface of the earth and that of groundwater was short, and Miscanthus sacchariflorus or Phragmites communis was dominant in plant communities. On high grounds or slopes without hollow, the level of groundwater was low and woods or herb communities were established. The latter was often observed on the areas where trees were cut recently. The harder the soil was the less the frequency of species that occurred in woods were. From the results, it was indicated that the groundwater level and the hardness of the soil were major environmental factors influencing the plant communities in the floodplain. It was pointed out that the land use that was appropriate to the microscale landform and the management of human impact on the plant communities were essential.

    It is intended in this study to clarify the process of the designation of Green Zone in connection with the enforcement of the Owner-Farmer Establishment Special Measure Law. During the rehabilitation after World War II, many troubles were happened about the adjustment between City Planning and the Owner-Farmer Establishment. Therefore Green Zone System was provided in Special City Planning Law on Sept. 11, 1946. This system was planned, for the sake of the rehabilitation of a war damaged city like Tokyo, to prevent scattering, spotting and ribbon development, to restrict the development of the excessive great town and to offer the selfsufficiency of vegetables for inner dwellers. In Tokyo it was applied on the outer agricultural area which had been Air Force Open Space Belt Ring.

    Because of the “Architectural Design Style” applied to the design process, thesmall urban parks designed and built in the Tokyo during the reconstruction period after the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 have been given a critical position in the modern history of urban park development in Japan. A series of semantic analysis of the spatial form found in the plan view of the parks were conducted in this study. The result indicates that, in addition to their physical existence, the trees and facilities, major compositional elements of the parks, contain a complex meaning which requires a formal structure to be settled in relation with overall plan of the park. Also, a concept of formal structure originated in an internal formal composition of the plan was defined as a frame of reference to understand the complexity in the meaning of the compositional elements.

    Works of the environmental art installed in urban context have been recognized as a form of spatial design for the public space in the United States during 1980s and 90s. They enhanced a collaborative working relationship between the artists and landscape designers which would assume several major stages of the progrress. Investigating four outstanding projects that represent an evolving process of the collaboration revealed that the working relationship has already reached the stage of conceptual collaboration even though it was initiated on the basis of technical assistance by the landscape designers. It surely contributed to establishing an extended view of the profession of landscape design in the expertise of visual design expression.
