Cymatic urbanism: A spatial modelling framework for urban noise resilience
Proposes NSC–NSI framework to quantify and spatialize urban noise severity. • Aligns with SDGs by linking health, ecology, and sustainable city planning. • Maps noise buffers, showing critical impacts on schools, hospitals, housing. • Highlights ecological risk, as tree habitats limit their use as sole buffers. • Recommends alternative absorbers to safeguard biodiversity and urban health. The rising health and ecological consequences of environme…
Promoting sustainable land management: An innovative approach to land-take decision-making
This is fine: Using memes to examine resilience, coping, and community for sexual minority men and nonbinary individuals during Covid‐19
Creative and humorous activism, both online and offline, has historically been important for queer communities during public health crises like the AIDS epidemic. Online activism and affinity became critical during the COVID‐19 pandemic due to reduced in‐person healthcare, social support, and resources. General functions of online meme humor expanded during COVID‐19, including using dark humor and defining in‐group political values and positions.…
Climate Change Resilience in the Urban Environment (Second Edition)
Climate Change Resilience in the Urban Environment provides a detailed overview of the risks of climate change for urban areas including those risks to human health. Of particular focus is the urban microclimate and how this can be modified to make cities more efficient, more comfortable, and healthier places to live and potentially offset climate change. This second edition provides fresh perspective to the material in the first edition, and inc…
A review of the impact of shelter design on the health of displaced populations
There are currently millions of displaced people encamped in low-quality shelters that jeopardise the health of these displaced populations. These shelters, which exhibit poor thermal regulation and air quality, are often inhabited by households for several years. Recently, the internal environment of shelters has been recognised as a determinant of the health of the occupants and the indoor air quality (IAQ) and internal temperatures have been i…
A parametric optimisation study of urban geometry design to assess outdoor thermal comfort
Utilising green and bluespace to mitigate urban heat island intensity
It has long been recognised that cities exhibit their own microclimate and are typically warmer than the surrounding rural areas. This 'mesoscale' influence is known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect and results largely from modification of surface properties leading to greater absorption of solar radiation, reduced convective cooling and lower water evaporation rates. Cities typically contain less vegetation and bodies of water than rural ar…
Climate Change Resilience in the Urban Environment
Between 1930 and 2030, the world's population will have flipped from 70% rural to 70% urban. While much has been written about the impacts of climate change and mitigation of its effects on individual buildings or infrastructure, this book is one of the first to focus on the resilience of whole cities. It covers a broad range of area-wide disaster-level impacts, including drought, heatwaves, flooding, storms and air quality, which many of our cit…
Thoughts of a design team: Barriers to low carbon school design
Text Messaging as a Tool for Behavior Change in Disease Prevention and Management
Mobile phone text messaging is a potentially powerful tool for behavior change because it is widely available, inexpensive, and instant. This systematic review provides an overview of behavior change interventions for disease management and prevention delivered through text messaging. Evidence on behavior change and clinical outcomes was compiled from randomized or quasi-experimental controlled trials of text message interventions published in pe…
