Greenspace and human health: An umbrella review [PDF]
Innovation(China), 2021 Multiple systematic reviews on greenspace and health outcomes exist, but the overall evidence base remains unclear. Therefore, we performed an umbrella review to collect and appraise all relevant systematic reviews of epidemiological studies on greenness exposure and health. We searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science from inception to June 28, 2021,

A spatial analytic approach for classifying greenspace and comparing greenspace social equity [PDF]
Applied Geography, 2017 Urban planners frequently adhere to ‘park minimum standards’ to ensure that public health and environmental benefits associated with greenspace are socially equitable. These standards denote the extent and placement of greenspaces, but rarely consider their form and function.

Greenspace and Depression in LASI [PDF]
Innov AgingAbstract Greenspaces, such as parks, gardens, and natural vegetation, are increasingly recognized as protective against mental health challenges among older adults. However, findings have primarily emerged from high-income, urbanized contexts, and evidence from low- and middle-income countries remains limited.

GPS-based street-view greenspace exposure and wearable assessed physical activity in a prospective cohort of US women [PDF]
International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical ActivityBackground Increasing evidence positively links greenspace and physical activity (PA). However, most studies use measures of greenspace, such as satellite-based vegetation indices around the residence, which fail to capture ground-level views and day-to ...

GREENSPACE AND COGNITION: EXPLORING SPECIFIC GREENSPACE MEASURES
Innovation in Aging, 2022 Abstract Increased exposure to greenspace is potentially associated with lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders (ADRD) through increased physical activity, decreased stress, cleaner air, and social cohesion. Previous studies have primarily used global measures of greenspace, thus specific aspects of different types of ...

Beyond green environments: Multi-scale difference in human exposure to greenspace in China
Environment International, 2022 Greenspace exposure metrics can allow for comparisons of green space supply across time, space, and population groups, and for inferring patterns of variation in opportunities for people to enjoy the health and recreational benefits of nearby green ...

Capturing the Sounds of an Urban Greenspace [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018 Abstract. Acoustic data can be a source of important information about events and the environment in modern cities. To date, much of the focus has been on monitoring noise pollution, but the urban soundscape contains a rich variety of signals about both human and natural phenomena. We describe the CitySounds project, which has installed enclosed sensor
