Spatial pattern, transportation, and air quality nexus in Iskandar Malaysia

Spatial pattern, transportation, and air quality are three development entities which affect one another thus forming a nexus. Deep understanding on the nexus between the entities provides possibility to create positive impacts on the societal living environment if the integration is well addressed....

Deep understanding on the nexus between the entities provides possibility to create positive impacts on the societal living environment if the integration is well addressed. The developing region of Iskandar Malaysia shows potential to prove the nexus with the current trends of urbanisation process.
