“…In particular, the predictions of the monocentric models describe an equilibrium condition which also reflects additional sources of spatial heterogeneity over which households have specific preferences (Irwin, 2010 p77). Such preferences are related, for instance, to the presence of local public goods such as open spaces (Turner, 2005;Wu and Plantinga, 2003), environmental amenities (Tajibaeva et al, 2008;Wu, 2006), or a combination of both (Kovacs and Larson, 2007), and agricultural amenities (Coisnon et al, 2014), and are likely clustered in space. Since we do not observe such features in our data, we are confident that unobserved spatial heterogeneity is an important issue in the econometric estimation and should be considered appropriately.…”

“…One way of accounting for scattered development is to assign an amenity value to public open space, so that individuals may be willing to incur the additional commuting costs associated with living further away from the CBD in order to have open space near their home (Newburn and Berck, 2011;Tajibaeva et al, 2008;Turner, 2005;Wu, 2006;Wu and Plantinga, 2003). Similarly, Cavailhe`s et al (2004) and Coisnon et al (2014) showed that the spatial heterogeneity of agricultural amenities can also lead to leapfrog development within a suburban area.…”

This paper provides empirical evidence that helps to answer several key questions relating to the extent of urban sprawl in Europe. Building on the monocentric city model, this study uses existing data sources to derive a set of panel data for 282 European cities at three time points (1990, 2000 and 2006). Two indices of urban sprawl are calculated that, respectively, reflect changes in artificial area and the levels of urban fragmentation for each city. These are supplemented by a set of data on various economic and geographical variables that might explain the variation of the two indices. Using a Hausman-Taylor estimator and random regressors to control for the possible correlation between explanatory variables and unobservable city-level effects, we find that the fundamental conclusions of the standard monocentric model are valid in the European context for both indices. Although the variables generated by the monocentric model explain a large part of the variation of artificial area, their explanatory power for modelling the fragmentation index is relatively low.

“…Lack of awareness on sprawl issues from some areas cause the efforts to contain sprawl sometimes resulted in increasing another (Coisnon, Oueslati & Salani, 2014Galster et al, 2001;Gottlieb, 1999;Ngoran & Xue, 2015;Wu et al, 2006). Besides, the analysis of the pattern of urban sprawl publications also indirectly explain why there are so many unintegrated methods and tools to measure sprawl.…”

After more than half century has passed, urban sprawl remains as one of the most important and unresolved matters in the urban development process. This paper adopts "Bibliometrics Analysis" technique, which is a statistical analysis of scientific publications to review the studies on urban sprawl from the year 1996 till 2015 in order to identify the fundamental issues and problem of urban sprawl. This method allows the researcher to review the literature of topic of interest critically, not only based on national and international networks but includes the multi-disciplinary fields of science and technology relating to urban planning. The publications on urban sprawl were retrieved from the two largest scientific databases namely Scopus and ScienceDirect. The sampling of publications was based on the "Most Cited Articles" indicator. The findings on urban sprawl issues and problems are presented in four categories, which are the lack of consensus in defining urban sprawl, unavailability of method to quantify urban sprawl, access to data and tools, and varying urban sprawl patterns based on area. The findings of this study provide the gap for future research on urban sprawl.Keyword: Urban sprawl, sprawl issues and problem, urban sprawl planning, bibliometric analysis.
