The journal "Urban Ecological Research" is published in continuation of the previous issues of the magazine "Geography and Regional Planning", which started its official activity in the field of press in 2009 with the publication of a pre-issue. This quarterly considers the urban ecosystem approach as one of the main approaches to sustainable development and tries to develop urban ecological studies and researches by defining new axes derived from urban ecosystem planning concepts.
