Do We Need More Urban Green Space to Alleviate PM2.5 Pollution? A Case Study in Wuhan, China
Urban green space can help to reduce PM2.5 concentration by absorption and deposition processes. However, few studies have focused on the historical influence of green space on PM2.5 at a fine grid scale.

Spatiotemporal analysis of the impact of urban landscape forms on PM2.5 in China from 2001 to 2020
Urban landscape forms can be effective in reducing increasing PM2.5 concentrations due to urbanization in China, making it crucially important to accurately quantify the spatiotemporal impact of urban landscape forms on PM2.5 variations.
