Green pathways to mental health: Relationships between treescapes and well‐being and distress
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract We aimed to evaluate the mental health benefits and possible mechanisms of objective and subjective treescape exposures whilst also accounting for relationships with residential area greenspace in general. Independent variables were objective measures of residential neighbourhood tree cover density and woody linear features, and a subjective ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Background. Fostering healthy urban living conditions is a critical public health objective. One efficient approach lies in the contact to nature, as numerous studies have shown that urban and peri‐urban natural elements both indoors and outdoors carry a large potential in buffering typical urban threats to mental health.

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.

Recovering nutrients from urine – A golden opportunity for sustainable fertiliser production
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Agricultural industrialisation has led to levels of nutrients in the environment that are well above safe operating limits, yet fertiliser use is necessary to feed a growing population. The recovery of nutrients from human urine in large, developed cities may offset some of the ecological and economic impacts associated with fertiliser production, as ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The global decline in biodiversity can be partly ameliorated by sympathetic design of green spaces within urban environments. This includes roundabouts on road systems. This study utilised a combination of approaches to assess levels of plant and bacterial diversity in roundabouts of varying size, soil characteristics and habitat complexity.
