Evaluation and Influencing Factors of Urban Blue-Green Space Publicness in Changsha by Zhang Chen, Zhang Nan, Zhu Peijuan, Qin Shuqian, Zhang Yong

“…The study results are as follows: 1) A UBGS with high publicness should have three significant characteristics: accessible elements, selectable functions, and shared structures, which promote and expand public life and support other social connections. 2) The comprehensive indicator of UBGS publicness in Changsha showed a circular pattern, decreasing from the core to the periphery and a fan-shaped expansion relying on the water system. Regarding element accessibility, spatial accessibility was high in the core area and low in the suburbs. …”

Intraurban socioeconomic inequalities in life expectancy: a population-based cross-sectional analysis in the city of Córdoba, Argentina (2015–2018) by Ana V Diez Roux, Usama Bilal, D Alex Quistberg, Kari A Moore, Harrison Quick, Santiago Rodríguez López, Natalia Tumas, Binod Acharya, Gabriel E Acevedo

“…Mean differences in life expectancy between the highest versus the lowest decile of area characteristics in men (women) were 3.03 (2.58), 3.52 (2.56) and 2.97 (2.31) years for % adults with high school education or above, % persons aged 15–17 attending school, and % households with water inside the dwelling, respectively. Lower values of % overcrowded households and unemployment rate were associated with longer life expectancy: mean differences comparing the lowest versus the highest decile were 3.03 and 2.73 in men and 2.57 and 2.34 years in women, respectively.Conclusion Life expectancy is substantially heterogeneous and patterned by socioeconomic characteristics in a mid-sized city of a middle-income country, suggesting that small-area inequities in life expectancy are not limited to large cities or high-income countries.…”

The impact of drought on forest spring phenology in northern China by Haowen Hu, Pengcheng Xue, Shaodong Huang, Zong Wang, Nina Xiong, Liang Shi, Boyi Liang, Jia Wang

“…In humid region, drought causes an advance in the SOS for most areas, whereas in semi-arid region, the forests experience a pronounced delay in SOS due to drought conditions. (3) We further explored the different impact patterns of spring phenology during drought years across various hydroclimatic regions: in humid regions during dry years, SOS is primarily driven by elevated temperatures; conversely, in arid and semi-arid regions, SOS is predominantly influenced by water deficiency resulting from drought conditions. …”
