Insufficient space
Individual tree growth models were used to test canopy cover in new developments. • Optimizing tree planting locations can increase canopy cover by 5–7%. • Rainfall differences in the same city can impact mature crown area of tree species. • No tree planting scenarios achieved 30 % canopy cover after 30 years. • These developments have insufficient public space to achieve canopy cover targets. The benefits associated with urban forests have led m…
Residential tree canopy configuration and mortality in 6 million Swiss adults
National Research Foundation, Prime Minister's Office, Singapore under its Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise programme and ETH Zurich
Changes in the associations between heatwaves and human mortality during two extreme hot summers in Shanghai, China
Higher levels of greenness and biodiversity associate with greater subjective wellbeing in adults living in Melbourne, Australia
The seven lamps of planning for biodiversity in the city
Cities tend to be built in areas of high biodiversity, and the accelerating pace of urbanization threatens the persistence of many species and ecological communities globally. However, urban environments also offer unique prospects for biological conservation, with multiple benefits for humans and other species. We present seven ecological principles to conserve and increase the biodiversity of cities, using metaphors to bridge the gap between th…
Green space context and vegetation complexity shape people’s preferences for urban public parks and residential gardens
Landscape preferences shape decision-making and drive the ecological outcomes of urban landscapes. We investigate how people’s landscape preferences are shaped by the green space context (public park vs private residential garden landscapes) and by physical features such as vegetation complexity. A postal questionnaire was sent to households near seven urban parks in Melbourne, Australia. Results showed that landscapes were grouped into four cate…
