Monitoring and perception of allergenic pollen in urban park environments
Parallel pollen monitorings and a park visitors’ survey on park use and allergy symptoms were conducted. • ’Despite high pollen concentrations, most of the allergy sufferers did not change their park visitation routine. • Respondents with allergies rather seemed to regulate the pollen-related allergic symptoms through the use of medication. • Survey participants recommended urban green space planning should consider planting more non-allergenic t…
Pathways linking biodiversity to human health
Biodiversity is a cornerstone of human health and well-being. However, while evidence of the contributions of nature to human health is rapidly building, research into how biodiversity relates to human health remains limited in important respects. In particular, a better mechanistic understanding of the range of pathways through which biodiversity can influence human health is needed. These pathways relate to both psychological and social process…
Physiological and psychological effects of visits to different urban green and street environments in older people
Urbanisation and global ageing are both accelerating, posing older people’s mental and cardiovascular health at risk. A growing number of studies suggests beneficial health effects when having contact with urban green spaces. This study investigates the effects of short-term exposure of older people to different urban green and street environments on physiological and psychological parameters relevant for cardiovascular health. A sample of 33 old…
A methodological framework for the assessment of regulating and recreational ecosystem services in urban parks under heat and drought conditions
Climate change, urbanisation and demographic change affect urban areas and pose a range of health-related challenges to urban residents, including heat waves, drought periods, air pollution and densification processes. Urban green spaces provide ecosystem services that can help to mitigate the effects of these challenges. Urban green spaces such as parks, urban gardens and street trees regulate the microclimate and buffer noise as well as a varie…

Remote sensing in urban planning
Remote sensing has evolved to become a key tool for various fields of environmental analysis, thus actively informing policy across areas and domains. To evaluate the degree to which remote sensing is contributing to the science of ecologically-oriented urban planning, we carried out a systematic literature review using the SCOPUS database, searching for articles integrating knowledge in urban planning, remote sensing and ecology. We reviewed 186…
Physical activity patterns in two differently characterised urban parks under conditions of summer heat
Distant regions underpin interregional flows of cultural ecosystem services provided by birds and mammals
Incorporating threat in hotspots and coldspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services
Long-term agricultural land-cover change and potential for cropland expansion in the former Virgin Lands area of Kazakhstan
During the Soviet Virgin Lands Campaign, approximately 23 million hectares (Mha) of Eurasian steppe grassland were converted into cropland in Northern Kazakhstan from 1954 to 1963. As a result Kazakhstan became an important breadbasket of the former Soviet Union. However, the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 triggered widespread agricultural abandonment, and much cropland reverted to grasslands. Our goal in this study was to reconstruct and a…
