It explores the interwoven relationships between the cultural meanings of places associated with water, the ecological conditions of a water-based landscape, techno-natural water infrastructures, everyday water practices, and rapid urbanization processes in a formerly rural landscape. The authors carefully weave together cartographic narratives about land use and industrialization, water scarcity, housing resettlements, and state administrative redistricting practices. This careful re-reading of the landscape raises questions about the sustainable water-based future development of the rurban landscape of the Yongning river plain. Visually narrative yet analytic in focus, the volume draws on historical cartographic records and extensive empirical field data to trace the dynamic interplay of technical visions, cultural heritage, ecological conditions, and migration in the creation of a water-based rurban landscape. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eReveals the intrinsic logic of a rurban landscape balanced between land and water \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive empirical field data and historical cartographic records of the Yongning river plain \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart of the \"Urban-Rural Assembly\" research project, funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSigrun Langner\u003c\/b\u003e is a Professor of Landscape Architecture and Landscape Planning, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, and one of the Principal Investigators in the \"Urban-Rural Assembly\" research project.　Her research focuses on \"rurban landscapes\" as an expression of complex urban-rural interrelationships, incorporating mapping methods as practices of knowledge and idea generation in climate- and water sensitive landscape design. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eYulin Zhang\u003c\/b\u003e is a Researcher in the \"Urban-Rural Assembly\" project and PhD candidate at the Chair of Landscape Architecture and Landscape Planning at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.
