Climate change, by altering precipitation and potential evapotranspiration, and urbanization, through reducing soil pore and infiltration capacity, both undermine soil water retention and increase flood risks. However, little is known about the combined impact of these factors on soil moisture dynamics. We assessed soil moisture dynamics in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area from 1985 to 2022. A flood resilience map was developed using a robustness index based on soil moisture. The findings indicate that urbanization has significantly reduced soil moisture in urban areas (β = −0.11). Regional soil moisture showed a slight increasing trend, and the estimated coefficients for precipitation and potential evapotranspiration were 0.33 and −0.37, respectively. Urbanization primarily reduced soil moisture in urban areas, while climate change increased soil moisture in regional and natural areas. Meanwhile, notable fluctuations were observed across urban cores, urban boundaries, and coastal areas, indicating the system’s low robustness. The flood resilience risk space exhibited a three-tiered structure, comprising high-risk cores, medium-risk belts, and low-risk points. The three-tier spatial planning framework is proposed to enhance flood resilience: (1) managing compact urban form with a compactness index range of 1.60–1.65, (2) developing a 6.5 km resilient sponge network within the urban boundary where the built-up area fraction remains below 41%, and (3) restoring permeable substrates along coastal areas. This framework evaluates regional resilience through the spatiotemporal dynamics of soil moisture, assessing regional robustness and mapping flood risk for high-density urban agglomerations facing extreme climate events.
气候变化通过改变降水和潜在蒸散量,城市化通过减少土壤孔隙和入渗能力,都破坏了土壤保水能力,增加了洪水风险。然而,这些因素对土壤水分动态的综合影响知之甚少。以1985 - 2022年粤港澳大湾区土壤水分动态为研究对象。利用基于土壤湿度的稳健性指数,建立了洪水恢复力图。结果表明,城市化显著降低了城市地区的土壤湿度(β = - 0.11)。区域土壤湿度呈轻微增加趋势,降水和潜在蒸散估算系数分别为0.33和- 0.37。城市化主要降低了城市地区的土壤湿度,而气候变化则增加了区域和自然地区的土壤湿度。同时,在城市核心、城市边界和沿海地区均观察到明显的波动,表明系统的鲁棒性较低。洪水恢复力风险空间呈现高风险核心、中风险带和低风险点的三层结构。为了提高城市的抗洪能力,提出了三层空间规划框架:(1)管理紧凑的城市形态,紧凑度指数范围为1.60-1.65;(2)在城市边界内建设6.5 km的弹性海绵网络,使建成区比例保持在41%以下;(3)恢复沿海地区的透水性基质。该框架通过土壤湿度的时空动态、评估区域稳健性和绘制高密度城市群面临极端气候事件的洪水风险来评估区域恢复力。

This study examines the environmental trajectories—in terms of overall greenness, tree canopy coverage, and new park space—in formerly redlined communities in Chicago between 2010 and 2020. Unlike prior research that examines green space disparities at a single point in time, we adopt a longitudinal approach to document post-redlining green investments. We find that neighborhoods with lower redlining grades (C and D) often showed greater increases in greening, although these increases declined in the latter half of the study period (2015–2020). Divergent greening patterns were also observed within C- and D-graded areas: census tracts characterized by an increase in homeownership after redlining showed higher greening investment than those where homeownership declined between 1940 and 2020. Overall, these results show substantial heterogeneity in greening trajectories among formerly redlined neighborhoods with the neighborhoods that continued to experience the strongest impacts of discriminatory housing practices receiving the least green investment.
本研究考察了2010年至2020年间芝加哥原红线社区的环境轨迹——总体绿化率、树冠覆盖率和新公园空间。与以往在单一时间点上考察绿地差异的研究不同,我们采用纵向方法来记录红线后的绿色投资。我们发现,红线等级(C和D)较低的社区往往表现出更大的绿化增长,尽管这些增长在研究期的后半段(2015-2020年)有所下降。在C级和d级地区也观察到不同的绿化模式:1940年至2020年期间,人口普查区的特征是房屋拥有率增加,而房屋拥有率下降的地区则显示出更高的绿化投资。总体而言,这些结果表明,在以前被划红线的社区中,绿化轨迹存在很大的异质性,继续受到歧视性住房做法影响最大的社区获得的绿色投资最少。

Urban green spaces are vital components of city landscapes, yet the role of visible greenery in promoting park use remains poorly understood due to limitations of static, correlational evidence. This study provides quasi-experimental evidence linking visual green exposure (VGE) to urban park engagement, specifically visit duration and physical activity intensity, using large-scale human mobility data and panoramic imagery across Tokyo’s 23 special wards. Employing propensity score matching (PSM), inverse probability weighting (IPW), and overlap weighting (OW), the analysis reveals that park visits with average VGE exceeding 30% are result in 3.36 min longer stays and 116.95 m additional walking distance relative to lower-exposure visits. However, these effects exhibit systematic spatial and temporal heterogeneity. Spatially, urban density mediates VGE’s impact, high VGE boosts engagement in dense city centers but shortens walking distance in peri-urban areas. Temporally, the positive influence of VGE on stat duration is most pronounced on weekends and during morning to midday hours, while declines in evenings. Seasonally, spring and fall amplify the influence of VGE’s on physical activity, while winter shows minimal effects despite year-round accessibility. These findings demonstrate VGE is influential yet context-dependent driver of park usage. By translating visibility into quantifiable engagement metrics, this study offers actionable guidance for planners, including optimized canopy placement and strategic vegetation configuration, to enhance public interaction with nature in dense urban settings.
城市绿地是城市景观的重要组成部分,但由于静态相关证据的限制,人们对可见绿色植物在促进公园利用方面的作用知之甚少。本研究利用东京23个特殊病房的大规模人类移动数据和全景图像,提供了将视觉绿色暴露(VGE)与城市公园参与度联系起来的准实验证据,特别是访问时间和身体活动强度。采用倾向得分匹配(PSM)、逆概率加权(IPW)和重叠加权(OW)分析发现,相对于低暴露率游客,平均VGE超过30%的游客停留时间增加3.36 min,步行距离增加116.95 m。然而,这些效应表现出系统的时空异质性。在空间上,城市密度调节了VGE的影响,高VGE促进了密集城市中心的参与度,但缩短了城郊地区的步行距离。从时间上看,VGE对状态持续时间的积极影响在周末和早上至中午时段最为明显,而在晚上则有所下降。从季节上看,春季和秋季对身体活动的影响放大,而冬季对身体活动的影响最小,尽管全年可达。这些发现表明,VGE是影响公园使用的因素,但与环境有关。通过将可见性转化为可量化的参与指标,本研究为规划者提供了可操作的指导,包括优化树冠布局和战略性植被配置,以增强密集城市环境中公众与自然的互动。

Background

Previous studies have suggested an inverse association between residential greenness and anxiety incidence, whereas exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and outdoor light at night (LAN) may elevate risk of anxiety. Nonetheless, their combined impacts, along with potential confounding, interaction, and mediation effects, merit further investigation.

Methods

This prospective cohort study was conducted in Yinzhou, China, comprising 27,882, participants aged over 18 years. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and enhanced vegetation index (EVI) were used to characterize greenspace around each participant’s residence. A land use regression (LUR) model was developed to estimate NO2 concentrations, and outdoor LAN was assessed using satellite-derived images. Cox proportional hazards models were employed to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs), and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were utilized to depict exposure–response curves. Additionally, we applied a cumulative risk index (CRI) to quantify joint effects of co-existing exposures and explored both additive and multiplicative interactions as well as mediating effects.

Results

Over a median follow-up of 5.10 years, a total of 3,272 incident anxiety cases were identified. In single-exposure models, HRs (95 % CIs) per interquartile range (IQR) increment were 0.73 (0.70, 0.77) for NDVI 250 m, 1.20 (1.10, 1.30) for NO2, and 1.21 (1.17, 1.24) for LAN, respectively. Both greenness and LAN exhibited notable deviations from linearity. Furthermore, the highest joint hazard ratio (JHR) of 1.42 (95 % CI: 1.30, 1.55) was observed when participants were simultaneously exposed to reduced greenness and elevated NO2. Additive and multiplicative interactions were observed between greenness and NO2, as well as between NO2 and LAN. Mediation analyses revealed that 28 % (95 % CI: 14 %, 45 %) of the relationship between NDVI 250 m and anxiety was mediated by reduced LAN.

Conclusions

Residential greenness was inversely associated with anxiety incidence, whereas exposure to NO2 and LAN may elevate risk of anxiety. The detrimental effects of NO2 may be alleviated by increased greenspace but exacerbated by greater exposure to nighttime illumination. Our findings underscore the urgency of integrating greening initiatives and curtailing NO2 and LAN within urban planning agendas to foster resilient and mental health-supportive cities worldwide.
以往的研究表明,住宅绿化与焦虑发生率呈负相关,而暴露于二氧化氮(NO2)和夜间室外光(LAN)可能会增加焦虑的风险。尽管如此,它们的综合影响,以及潜在的混淆、相互作用和中介效应,值得进一步研究。方法本前瞻性队列研究在中国鄞州进行,包括27,882名年龄在18岁以上的参与者。使用归一化植被指数(NDVI)和增强植被指数(EVI)来描述每个参与者住所周围的绿地。开发了土地利用回归(LUR)模型来估计NO2浓度,并使用卫星衍生图像评估室外LAN。采用Cox比例风险模型计算风险比(hr)和95%置信区间(95% ci),并采用限制性三次样条(RCS)描述暴露-反应曲线。此外,我们应用累积风险指数(CRI)来量化共存暴露的联合效应,并探讨了可加性和可乘性相互作用以及中介效应。结果在中位随访5.10年期间,共发现3272例突发焦虑症病例。在单次暴露模型中,NDVI 250 m、NO2和LAN的每四分位数范围(IQR)增量的hr (95% ci)分别为0.73(0.70,0.77)、1.20(1.10,1.30)和1.21(1.17,1.24)。绿度和LAN均表现出明显的线性偏差。此外,当参与者同时暴露于减少的绿化和升高的NO2时,观察到最高的联合危险比(JHR)为1.42 (95% CI: 1.30, 1.55)。绿度与NO2、NO2与LAN之间存在可加性和可乘性相互作用。中介分析显示,NDVI 250 m与焦虑之间的关系中有28% (95% CI: 14%, 45%)是由LAN减少介导的。结论住宅绿化与焦虑发生率呈负相关,暴露于NO2和LAN可提高焦虑发生率。增加绿化面积可以减轻二氧化氮的有害影响,但增加夜间照明会加剧二氧化氮的有害影响。我们的研究结果强调了在城市规划议程中整合绿化举措、减少二氧化氮和局域网的紧迫性,以在全球范围内培育具有弹性和精神健康支持性的城市。

The relationship between depression and urban environments is well-documented in existing literature, but less is known about the nuanced associations between varying degrees of depression severity and different types of urban environments. We analyzed data from a large-scale social survey of 5,346 urban participants in China in 2021 to examine the relationship between depression severity and urban built and natural environments. Depression was classified into five levels: no, mild, moderate, moderately severe, severe. Built environments were assessed using the indicators aligned with New Urbanism principles, while natural environments were measured by air pollution and greenspace morphology. We employed analysis of variance, multiple comparisons, and multinomial logistic regression, adjusting for individual-level and weather-related covariates. The results revealed non-linear associations. Built environments were primarily associated with moderate depression, showing both protective effects from higher urban density and land-use mix, and adverse effects from greater road density. Specifically, each 1% increase in urban density and land use mix reduced the relative risk of moderate depression by 9.0% and 10.0%, respectively, while higher road density increased it. In contrast, natural environments were mainly linked to moderately severe and severe depression, exhibiting adverse effects from long-term air pollution exposure but protective effects from largest patch index of greenspaces. A 1% increase in long-term air pollution exposure raised the relative risk of moderately severe depression by 34.8%, whereas a 1% increase in the largest patch index of greenspace reduced the risk of severe depression by 34.3%. These findings highlight nuanced, non-linear associations between depression severity and built and natural environments, lend support to the environmental sensitivity theory, and provide evidence-based guidance for health-oriented urban planning.
在现有文献中,抑郁症和城市环境之间的关系得到了充分的记录,但人们对不同程度的抑郁症严重程度和不同类型的城市环境之间的微妙联系知之甚少。我们分析了2021年对中国5346名城市参与者进行的大规模社会调查的数据,以研究抑郁症严重程度与城市建筑环境和自然环境之间的关系。抑郁症分为5个级别:无、轻度、中度、中度、重度。建筑环境使用与新城市主义原则相一致的指标进行评估,而自然环境则通过空气污染和绿地形态进行测量。我们采用方差分析、多重比较和多项逻辑回归,调整了个人水平和天气相关的协变量。结果显示出非线性关联。建成环境主要与中度抑郁有关,既显示出较高的城市密度和土地利用组合的保护作用,也显示出较高的道路密度的不利影响。具体而言,城市密度和土地利用组合每增加1%,中度洼地的相对风险分别降低9.0%和10.0%,而道路密度增加则会增加相对风险。相比之下,自然环境主要与中度和重度抑郁症有关,长期暴露在空气污染中会产生不利影响,而最大斑块指数的绿地则会产生保护作用。长期空气污染暴露增加1%,患中度抑郁症的相对风险增加34.8%,而绿地最大斑块指数增加1%,患重度抑郁症的风险降低34.3%。这些发现强调了抑郁严重程度与建筑环境和自然环境之间微妙的非线性关联,为环境敏感性理论提供了支持,并为以健康为导向的城市规划提供了循证指导。

A 1% increase in long-term air pollution exposure raised the relative risk of moderately severe depression by 34.8%, whereas a 1% increase in the largest patch index of greenspace reduced the risk of severe depression by 34.3%. These findings highlight nuanced, non-linear associations between depression severity and built and natural environments, lend support to the environmental sensitivity theory, and provide evidence-based guidance for health-oriented urban planning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54744,"journal":{"name":"Landscape and Urban Planning","volume":"268 ","pages":"Article 105581"},"PeriodicalIF":9.2,"publicationDate":"2026-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145939269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services, but their benefits are unevenly distributed. However, the extent of this inequality remains unclear. A quantitative accessibility–availability framework is developed to evaluate the spatial equality of PAs in China. Using data on 3,710 PAs, a county-level spatial distribution index is constructed by combining road-network accessibility (distance to the nearest PA) and availability (PA quantity and coverage) across 2,859 county-level divisions. Distributional equality is summarized with the Gini coefficient, supplemented by spatial clustering and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR). Results reveal four main patterns: (i) approximately one-third of county-level divisions lack any PA sites, and PA quantity is more unevenly distributed than coverage rates; (ii) accessibility analysis shows an average road distance of 56.57 km to the nearest PA (maximum 503.45 km), with half of all county-level divisions located within 40 km; (iii) pronounced regional asymmetries emerge—eastern, northeastern, and central China host 62.9% of PA sites but only 8.3% of total PA area, whereas western China contains 37.1% of sites and 91.7% of area—indicating fragmented, small PAs in the east versus large, sparse PAs in the west; and (iv) GWR identifies population, road length, GDP per capita, and biodiversity value as the dominant correlates of spatial equality, reflecting the combined demographic, infrastructural, economic, and ecological determinants shaping inequality. Policy implications for PA system planning: (i) integrating spatial equality into PA planning objectives; (ii) prioritizing new PAs near urban and densely populated regions; (iii) enhancing connectivity and gateway infrastructure in remote regions; (iv) supporting small and community-based PAs; and (v) integrating public health into PA planning. Embedding the Gini-based accessibility–availability metric in national and provincial planning can advance an inclusive, just, and ecologically effective PA system.
保护区对生物多样性保护和生态系统服务至关重要,但其效益分布不均。然而,这种不平等的程度仍不清楚。建立了一个定量的可达性-可用性框架来评价中国保护区的空间平等性。利用3710个PA的数据,结合2859个县级区划的路网可达性(到最近PA的距离)和可得性(PA的数量和覆盖范围),构建了县级空间分布指数。以基尼系数概括分配平等,辅以空间聚类和地理加权回归(GWR)。结果表明:(1)约1 / 3的县域区域缺乏PA站点,且PA数量的分布不均匀程度高于覆盖率;(ii)可达性分析表明,到最近的PA的平均道路距离为56.57 km(最长503.45 km),所有县级区划的一半位于40 km以内;(iii)明显的区域不对称性出现——中国东部、东北部和中部地区拥有62.9%的保护区,但仅占总面积的8.3%,而中国西部地区拥有37.1%的保护区和91.7%的面积,表明东部是破碎的、小的保护区,而西部是大的、稀疏的保护区;GWR将人口、道路长度、人均GDP和生物多样性价值确定为空间平等的主要相关因素,反映了形成不平等的人口、基础设施、经济和生态综合决定因素。对城市规划系统规划的政策影响:(i)将空间平等纳入城市规划目标;优先考虑靠近城市和人口稠密地区的新保护区;(三)加强偏远地区互联互通和网关基础设施建设;支持小型和以社区为基础的保护区;(五)将公共卫生纳入巴勒斯坦权力机构规划。在国家和省级规划中嵌入基于基尼系数的可及性-可获得性指标可以促进一个包容、公正和生态有效的PA系统。

Confronted with increasing urban heat stress risks, local governments need to reconcile expanding green infrastructure for urban cooling with urban densification goals. However, the impacts of incremental urban development in established neighborhoods on urban heat stress risks remain poorly understood. We demonstrate how decision support tools using Artificial Intelligence (AI) can assist complex urban land use and climate adaptation planning. Our findings are based on an inter- and transdisciplinary research project that developed and combined novel AI-supported simulation and prediction methods, namely 3D semantic models, AI-based outdoor thermal comfort models, and optimization and scenario-based AI models. Tool development was combined with transdisciplinary research to assess the real-world application potentials of AI-supported approaches in the City of Freiburg, Germany. The article demonstrates how AI-supported methods can aide and expedite urban land use and adaptation planning to support complex decision-making that needs to balance different strategic goals and interests.

Urban sustainability efforts increasingly rely on blue-green infrastructure (BGI) to deliver essential ecosystem services in response to climate change, urbanisation, and declining public health. However, the ecosystem service outcomes of private developers using cost-effectiveness as a paradigm to design BGI measures remains poorly understood, particularly in operational urban planning contexts. This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of BGI measures within Oslo’s Blue-Green Factor (BGF), a planning tool that mandates minimum ecological performance requirements for new developments. We combined cost-effectiveness analysis with expert-based weighting of ecosystem services for 12 common BGI measures.
Our findings demonstrate substantial heterogeneity in cost-effectiveness across BGI measures in relation to ecosystem services, driven largely by cost variation and expected lifespan. Measures with simple vegetation layers (e.g. lawns, sedums) emerged as most cost-efficient due to low implementation costs and long lifetimes but delivered limited ecosystem service benefits. In contrast, structurally complex measures, such as green walls, intensive green roofs, and rain gardens performed better in regulating air pollution, reducing runoff, and supporting biodiversity, albeit at higher costs. Sensitivity analyses revealed cost variation as the dominant factor influencing cost-effectiveness.
Importantly, our cost-effectiveness analysis highlights that the current BGF framework may bias design choices towards low-cost, lower-performing BGI. To more accurately reflect ecosystem service contributions, Oslo’s BGF could benefit from revised weightings and spatially differentiated performance criteria tailored to local socio-ecological priorities. This study provides the first assessment of the BGF’s incentive effects and offers guidance for improving urban BGI planning tools.
城市可持续发展的努力越来越依赖蓝绿色基础设施(BGI)来提供基本的生态系统服务,以应对气候变化、城市化和公共卫生水平下降。然而,私营开发商使用成本效益作为范例来设计华大基因措施的生态系统服务结果仍然知之甚少,特别是在可操作的城市规划背景下。本研究在奥斯陆的蓝绿系数(BGF)中评估了华大基因措施的成本效益,BGF是一种规划工具,规定了新开发项目的最低生态绩效要求。我们将成本效益分析与基于专家的生态系统服务权重相结合,用于12个常见的华大基因指标。我们的研究结果表明,与生态系统服务相关的华大基因措施的成本效益存在巨大差异,主要受成本变化和预期寿命的驱动。具有简单植被层(如草坪、景天)的措施由于实施成本低、寿命长而成为最具成本效益的措施,但提供的生态系统服务效益有限。相比之下,结构复杂的措施,如绿墙、密集的绿色屋顶和雨水花园,在调节空气污染、减少径流和支持生物多样性方面表现更好,尽管成本更高。敏感性分析显示,成本变化是影响成本效益的主要因素。重要的是,我们的成本效益分析强调,当前的BGF框架可能倾向于低成本、低性能的BGI设计选择。为了更准确地反映生态系统服务的贡献,奥斯陆的BGF可以从根据当地社会生态优先事项修订的权重和空间差异化绩效标准中受益。本研究首次对BGI的激励效应进行了评估,并为改进城市BGI规划工具提供了指导。

In response to rapid urbanisation, climate breakdown, and biodiversity loss, blue–green infrastructure (BGI) has emerged as a key strategy for addressing urban sustainability challenges. However, widespread adoption on private land remains limited, partly due to implementation barriers. Policymakers increasingly use incentive programs to overcome these barriers, yet their effectiveness is not well understood. This study addresses five research questions: (1) which types of incentives have been examined in the literature, either through model-based experiments and/or practical implementation, to promote BGI on private property; (2) how has the effectiveness of these programs been assessed; (3) who are the primary providers and target groups; and (4) which BGI types and ecosystem services are most frequently incentivised? We conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines, searching Web of Science and Scopus, which yielded 67 studies describing 104 incentive programs that met our inclusion criteria. The reviewed literature indicates a strong geographical bias towards North America and Europe, with limited evidence from low- and middle-income countries. Economic and fiscal instruments dominate the literature, while cooperative, agreement-based, and knowledge and communication instruments are less frequently examined. Publications further suggest that impact assessments often remain narrow in scope, with few studies evaluating long-term, social, or ecological outcomes. Evidence from the reviewed studies shows that private residential property owners were the most common target group, reflecting their central role in urban land management. The analysed publications reveal critical gaps in both geographic coverage and methodological rigour. We recommend that future research integrates more diverse incentive types and adopts standardised evaluation frameworks to strengthen the evidence base and support more effective BGI incentive design.
为了应对快速城市化、气候崩溃和生物多样性丧失,蓝绿基础设施(BGI)已成为应对城市可持续性挑战的关键战略。然而,在私人土地上的广泛采用仍然有限,部分原因是实施障碍。决策者越来越多地使用激励计划来克服这些障碍,但其有效性尚未得到很好的理解。本研究解决了五个研究问题:(1)通过基于模型的实验和/或实际实施,文献中考察了哪些类型的激励措施来促进私有财产上的华大基因;(2)如何评估这些项目的有效性;(三)谁是主要提供者和目标群体;(4)哪些大基因类型和生态系统服务最常受到激励?我们根据PRISMA指南进行了系统的回顾,检索了Web of Science和Scopus,得出了67项研究,描述了104项符合我们纳入标准的激励计划。文献综述表明,北美和欧洲存在强烈的地理偏见,来自中低收入国家的证据有限。经济和财政手段在文献中占主导地位,而合作、基于协议的以及知识和交流手段较少受到审查。出版物进一步表明,影响评估的范围往往很窄,很少有研究评估长期、社会或生态结果。检讨研究的证据显示,私人住宅物业业主是最常见的目标群体,反映他们在城市土地管理中的核心作用。经过分析的出版物揭示了地理覆盖范围和方法严谨性方面的重大差距。我们建议未来的研究整合更多样化的激励类型,采用标准化的评估框架,以加强证据基础,支持更有效的华大基因激励设计。
