Terrain: A Journal of the Built & Natural
Environments
http://www.terrain.org/default.htm
A quarterly online journal searching for that interface-the integration-among

It is not definitely about urban form, nor solely about natural landscapes.
It is not precisely about human culture, nor necessarily about ecology. It
is, rather, a celebration of the symbiosis between the built and natural environments
where it exists, and an examination and discourse where it does not.
