Urban heat island mitigation by green infrastructure in European Functional Urban Areas

Federica Marando et al.

Summary: The Urban Heat Island effect is a harmful environmental hazard for urban residents, and its intensity is expected to increase with climate change. Urban Green Infrastructure can help reduce the intensity of the UHI effect, contributing to resilient urban environments and climate change adaptation and mitigation. It is necessary to integrate UGI into urban planning and legislation, supported by widely applicable and easily accessible quantitative evidence.

Prioritizing the provision of urban ecosystem services in deprived areas, a question of environmental justice

Wissal Selmi et al.

Summary: The distribution of urban ecosystem services is often uneven, leading to environmental justice issues. This study focused on the provision of UES by urban trees and found no significant association between UES delivery and social deprivation. It suggests that mapping associations between UES delivery and social deprivation should be integrated with future development plans for equitable distribution.

How to quantify the cooling effect of urban parks? Linking maximum and accumulation perspectives

Jian Peng et al.

Summary: This study proposed a comprehensive approach to measuring park cooling effects with both maximum and accumulation perspectives, which can guide urban park planning and design to maximize the ecological benefits. The results showed that different types of urban parks have different cooling capacities, with comprehensive parks exhibiting more efficient cooling effects. The study highlights the importance of considering spatial continuity and cumulative impact in exploring urban park cooling effects.

Exploring the equality of accessing urban green spaces: A comparative study of 341 Chinese cities

Longfeng Wu et al.

Summary: This study addresses the gap in investigations on equality of access to green space in urban areas by developing two indexes based on the Gini Coefficient to compare the inequality in urban green spaces across all 341 prefecture-level cities in China. The research findings show significant disparities in urban green space equality, which are related to GDP per capita, population density, and urban land area.

Heterogeneity in the subjective well-being impact of access to urban green space

Farahnaz Sharifi et al.

Summary: The impact of urban green spaces on residents' subjective well-being varies across different well-being levels, with individuals with lower levels of SWB showing less responsiveness to proximity to UGS compared to those with higher levels. Furthermore, the design of UGS, such as green corridors, can help enhance dimensions of well-being in already built-up areas.

Disproportionate exposure to urban heat island intensity across major US cities

Angel Hsu et al.

Summary: The study shows that people of color and those living in poverty are disproportionately affected by urban heat exposure in nearly all major cities in the continental United States. This highlights the unequal distribution of heat exposure across different income groups and racial backgrounds and its potential impacts on public health and economic outcomes.

Estimating the cooling potential of irrigating green spaces in 100 global cities with arid, temperate or continental climates

Pui Kwan Cheung et al.

Summary: Modern agricultural irrigation can provide extensive cooling effects to offset global climate change. Research shows that irrigating urban green spaces can significantly reduce air temperatures, with the greatest cooling potential observed in arid cities.

Greenery as a mitigation and adaptation strategy to urban heat

Nyuk Hien Wong et al.

Summary: Urban green infrastructure is crucial for reducing urban heat, alleviating heat stress, and includes ground greenery and greenery on buildings. While these strategies can effectively cool the environment, the cooling potential varies depending on factors such as scale, extent of greenery, plant selection, and placement.

Examining the Spatial Coordination between Metrorail Accessibility and Urban Spatial Form in the Context of Big Data

Jingming Liu et al.

Summary: This study clarifies the spatial relationship between metro accessibility and urban form, revealing a monocentric structure in Shanghai where both accessibility and urban form values decrease gradually from the city center to suburban regions, with regional differences being significant. The research also highlights a time lag effect in the development of metro stations on urban form and a pattern of expanding catchment areas from city center to suburbs. Coordination between accessibility and urban form around metro stations is strong but varies by region.
