  • Will biodiversity actions yield healthy places? A systematic review of human health outcomes associated with biodiversity‐focused urban greening

    Open AccessErica N Spotswood, Myla F J Aronson et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2025

    There is growing interest in using urban greening projects to support biodiversity. While there are many potential co‐benefits, the health outcomes resulting from biodiversity‐supporting activities have yet to be synthesized. We conducted a systematic review of health outcomes associated with seven biodiversity‐supporting elements, including patch size, connections, matrix quality, habitat diversity, native plants, special resources and vegetatio…

  • Limitations of existing park quality instruments and suggestions for future research

  • Denser and greener cities

    Open AccessRobert I McDonald, Myla F J Aronson et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2023

    Green spaces in urban areas—like remnant habitat, parks, constructed wetlands, and street trees—supply multiple benefits. Many studies show green spaces in and near urban areas play important roles harbouring biodiversity and promoting human well‐being. On the other hand, evidence suggests that greater human population density enables compact, low‐carbon cities that spare habitat conversion at the fringes of expanding urban areas, while also allo…

  • Area is the primary correlate of annual and seasonal patterns of avian species richness in urban green spaces

  • Urban socioeconomic inequality and biodiversity often converge, but not always

    Open AccessEvan R Kuras, Paige S Warren et al.ARTICLELandscape and Urban Planning2020

    It is through urban biodiversity that the majority of humans experience nature on a daily basis. As cities expand globally, it is increasingly important to understand how biodiversity is shaped by human decisions, institutions, and environments. In some cities, research has documented convergence between high socioeconomic status (SES) and high species diversity. Yet, other studies show that residents with low SES live amid high biodiversity or t…

  • Biodiversity in the City

    Christopher A Lepczyk, Myla F J Aronson et al.ARTICLEBioScience2017

    As urban areas expand, understanding how ecological processes function in cities has become increasingly important for conserving biodiversity. Urban green spaces are critical habitats to support biodiversity, but we still have a limited understanding of their ecology and how they function to conserve biodiversity at local and landscape scales across multiple taxa. Given this limited view, we discuss five key questions that need to be addressed t…
