The Influence of Multi-Sensory Perception on Public Activity in Urban Street Spaces: An Empirical Study Grounded in Landsenses Ecology by Tianqi Han, Lina Tang, Jiang Liu, Siyu Jiang, Jinshan Yan

“…The findings reveal that street spatial characteristics, particularly the Water Surface Ratio (WSR) and Waterfront Density (WD), have a pronounced impact on behavioral traits, with higher public activity frequencies in areas with elevated WSR and WD. Notably, WSR significantly affects static behaviors, such as sunbathing (<i>β</i> = 0.371, <i>p</i> < 0.001), and dynamic behaviors, such as walking (<i>β</i> = 0.279, <i>p</i> < 0.001). …”
