The Intervention of Plants in the Conflicts Between Buildings and Climate
THE INTERVENTION OF PLANTS IN THE CONFLICTS BETWEEN BUILDINGS AND CLIMATE ─ A CASE STUDY IN SINGAPORE CHEN YU (B. Arch., M.A. (Arch.)) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2006 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I could not come this far without my supervisor, Associate Prof. Wong Nyuk Hien, who guided, encouraged, and supported me not only as a patient teacher but also a great friend. I did benefit a lot from the unrestricted research environment and the tradition of being productive in his team. My appreciation should also extend to my thesis committee members, Dr. Lim Guan Tiong and Dr Liew Soo Chin for their invaluable advices and interests in my research work. It is also my deep gratitude that I can work under many different research projects during the last few years with Dr Tan Puay Yok, Ms Ong Chui Leng, Ms Angelia Sia from National Parks Board (NParks), Mr Wong Wai Ching from Building and Construction Authority (BCA), Mr Wong Siu Tee and Mr Calvin Chung From JTC Corporation, and Ms Tay Bee Choo from Housing and Development Board (HDB). The invaluable experience and the related research findings are of great help in this dissertation writing. Of particular significant is the experimental environment and the plants provided by NParks in its Pasir Panjiang nursery. I am grateful to Ms Boo Chih Min, Dr Tan Puay Yok, and Ms Angelia Sia for their effort in expediting the process. Meanwhile, without the kind help provided by Madam Chua-Tan Boon Gek and Ms Sanisah Rasman on the spot, the tedious field work would exhaust my patience at the very beginning.

Sustainability of an Urban Forest: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Singapore
7 Sustainability of an Urban Forest: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Singapore Kalyani Chatterjea National Institute of Education Nanyang Technological University Singapore 1. Introduction Singapore, an island republic, is situated south of the Malay Peninsula, between 1º09Ń and 1º29Ń and longitudes 103º38É and 104º06É. The main island and 60 small islets cover an area of about 710.2 sq km and support a humid tropical type of vegetation. At the time of the founding of modern Singapore in 1819, practically the whole of the main island was forest covered. Land clearance for development was done in massive scale during the colonial times. After the first forest reserves were set up in 1883, efforts to conserve parts of the forested areas have evolved. In 1951 legal protection was given to Bukit Timah, Pandan, Labrador and the water catchment areas. When Singapore became an independent state in1965, there were five nature reserves in all (Wee & Corlett, 1986). Since its independence in 1965, in an effort to develop its economy and infrastructure, Singapore has continued to clear forests to provide land for industries, residential use, military purposes, and infrastructure. With one of the highest population densities in the world, pressure on land is the driving force that has influenced the extents of the forests. But Singapore has managed to provide legal protection to retain some land as reserve forests. Till the 90’s nature conservation was a mere governmental task to maintain the forested areas of the island. About 4.5% of the total land area is given to forests and there are a total of four protected nature reserves in Singapore.

Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore
SMART-FM Working Paper (not for quotation or citation) Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore Clio Andris, SMART Future Urban Mobility IRG PART 1: INTRODUCTION There have been many initiatives within the Singaporean government to improve quality of life for Singaporeans and visitors through transit infrastructure, transit demand management, land use planning initiatives and housing. The result of this investiture made by agencies such as URA, HDB, SLA, LTA, SMRT and others, transportation in Singapore seems to support widespread mobility for Singaporeans traveling to work, school, shopping districts and recreational activities, and plans have yielded one of the best transit systems in the world. Moreover, Singapore has provided its residents high levels of transportation mobility despite challenges of high population density and rapid changes in development. Nevertheless, in this time of advancing urbanization, we are interested in which aspects of life, movement and socialization are important for modeling Singaporean travel demand needs in the present and future, with respect to rising income levels, demographic changes, and increased need for redevelopment. Future densification and urbanization will require new attention to the impacts on travel patterns as well as a better understanding of physical and social forces. This predicament calls for richer modeling capabilities. Recently, a shift toward activity-based modeling has been successful in capturing more biographical, or true-to-life view of travel decisions of citizens. There is a rich literature on travel demand modeling and activity patterns. Further, understanding the implications of future improvements in mobility includes a need to address more than the traditional journey to work concerns.

Dynamics of an Urban Forest in Response to Urban Development and Management Initiatives — Case of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve
Chapter 3 Dynamics of an Urban Forest in Response to Urban Development and Management Initiatives — Case of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve Kalyani Chatterjea Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/61233 Abstract Singapore, a tropical island of only 716 km², has substantial land under forest. But rapid urbanisation coupled with the scarcity of land has also resulted in exten‐ sive land clearance. Though highly urbanised, Singapore has managed to retain 4.5% of the land area under nature conservation, and 2.9% under closed forest. Out of four protected areas, two of these, the Central Water Catchment Forest (CWC forest) and Bukit Timah Nature Reserve (BTNR), are protected under the Parks and Trees Act of 2005 with a total area of 3,043 ha. Though originally connected, these two forests were separated from each other by a major high‐ way, leaving BTNR, the smaller of the two, with a total land area of 163 hec‐ tares, surrounded by not just the highways, but also by a fast developing urban residential area. The forest boundaries have seen dense urban development as close as only 50 m from the forest edge. As a result, micro-climatic parameters such as atmospheric temperature, relative humidity, soil surface temperature, light conditions, wind velocity, all have seen significant changes over time and the gradient of such changes are drastic and steep along most forest verges. Current‐ ly some ameliorating steps are being taken by the forest management to counter the ill effects of too much encroachment and fragmentation.
