過往都市地區綠地規劃的考量重點著重於休憩功能，將綠地視為服務人類的公共設施，本研究的主要目的是以生態平衡的角度進行竹北市的都市綠地選址。運用景觀生態學理論歸納都市綠地選址的評估因子；以層級分析法整合相關領域專家的意見，計算各評估因子的權重；利用地理資訊系統結合遙測影像與實地調查資料，計算候選綠地中各評估因子的得分；最後再以權重加總方式求得候選綠地的生態分數，並探討這些候選綠地設置為公園後，對竹北市整體生態功能的影響。 研究結果顯示，植物種類較多與接近綠網系統兩項評估因子的權重值最高。生態分數較高的五個綠地候選區設置為公園後，雖提昇生態功能指數中的面積及與水體距離，但卻減低形狀、與公園距離及與綠網系統距離指數，主因是竹北市行政區狹長形狀的限制。不過整體而言，設置後將使竹北市整體綠地資源提高，在維持都市環境生態平衡的同時，提供一個更宜人居的環境。

傳統之規劃準則法(Planning Criteria Method)係使用相關規劃準則以評比規劃提案，對每一項規劃準則給予分數，最後加總各項得分作為整體分數為排序的依據，此方法簡單易操作，但規劃準則缺乏權重值的考量，極可能導致評價結果不夠精確。

分析階層程序(Analytic Hierarchy Process, AHP)法係美國匹茲堡大學教授沙提(Thomas L. Saaty)於1971年首創，此法係將繁雜問題系統簡化成明確之元素系統，在分析過程中，以特徵向量代表階層中某層次各元素間之優先率，再求出特徵值，作為評定以名目尺度執行的對偶比較矩陣其一致性強弱程度之依據。若符合一致性，則特徵向量所代表的優先率，便是作為決策或評選之依據。本文利用分析階層程序(AHP)法探討景觀生態規劃方案之評選模式，結果顯示景觀生態規劃方案評估架構五個構面權重依次為「嵌塊體數量適宜性」>「嵌塊體大小適宜性」>「廊道、連接度及網路系統適宜性」>「嵌塊體形狀適宜性」>「邊緣適宜性」，此模式可提供決策者客觀評選出較優之景觀生態規劃方案。

傳統結構性措施改變原本不安全的環境，直覺地留下環境安全的訊息，普遍受到認同與接受。結構性措施不應為唯一的的地震災害防減災措施，隨著地震災害規模劇增挑戰結構性措施有限的耐震效果，非結構性措施中土地使用規劃憑藉限制開發區位、類型、強度，引導開發遠離已知災害風險地區，並將開發引導於相對安全地區。美國與紐西蘭面對大規模地震災害，儘管防減災土地使用規劃的公信力與信賴度受到挑戰，惟認知災害預防的重要性故仍逐步完成活動斷層的劃設與防減災土地使用規劃。現階段台灣各類直接管制、間接管制與資訊揭露法令規範仍趨一般性與通則性，參考美國與紐西蘭作法，有必要確實將災害風險資訊納入為開發計畫准駁參考，以及更全面性納入災害風險資訊與地質敏感資訊於土地使用規劃。是以，本文借鑒他國推動防減災土地使用規劃經驗，蒐集相關法令規範與防減災土地使用規劃措施，跨國比較省思與討論，期供未來臺灣修訂防減災土地使用計畫的參考。

眾所周知，矽谷聚集全球人才、技術、資金，形成全球最繁榮的科技產業群聚。但近年來，新創企業卻不再以矽谷為首選，反而朝向北邊的舊金山市聚集。這現象似乎與產業群聚理論中認為空間能不斷正向強化的解釋相悖。因此，本文嘗試從統計數據、文獻、創業實務，並就理論探討其成因。本文認為，其可能除了金融風暴造成地租誘因；都會區完善的資通訊基礎；創業環境支持發展之外，平台經濟模式特別適合在都會區發展，成為新創平台企業快速創造流量、擴充展銷規模的絕佳環境。

就理論解釋上，都會區因為空間鄰近性，多元異質性的交流帶來更多知識外溢、人際網絡的優勢持續佔有重要性，然而，不同的是，平台型的新創企業因為技術相近，彼此呈現獨立激烈競爭，必需透過不斷調整服務特色，快速軸轉商業模式來爭取優勢。而消費者在接受創新產品過程中，廠商間必須亦步亦趨地在都會聚集，共同開發共享市場，非默契地形成合作共識，與傳統理論中，強調地方網絡支持協力的制度模式截然不同。在都會空間意涵上，平台型新創企業的崛起，除了改變了生產與消費制度，也帶來調適修補都市負外部性的潛力，但同時卻也可能帶來社會隱憂風險，因此，如何平衡公共價值與創新驅力的治理亦是重要挑戰。
