Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.

Combined storytelling and mapping approaches for increasing community engagement with woodland creation and expansion projects

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Forests and woodlands are important for biodiversity, climate change mitigation and the provision of services including recreation, timber and non‐timber forest products. Land use policies currently aim to increase forest cover while also maximising the benefits of forests for people and improving community engagement with the process of ...

Buildings as accidental habitat: Where animals nest, sleep and forage

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals have long inhabited human buildings alongside us, but our understanding comes from isolated studies, such as reports of a possum in the roof or a bat in our walls. What we lack is the building's perspective: which building features actually serve as habitat and for whom?

Theories of care help explain a peri‐urban tree diversity paradox

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Since diversity is often a management objective for peri‐urban tree communities on public land, one might expect to find greater diversity there than on private land, where such objectives are less common. However, this expectation rests on an assumption that people control diversity towards objectives, overlooking the role of relationships ...
