In modern cities, urban public spaces, such as parks, gardens, plazas, and streets, play a big role in people’s social activities, physical mental health, overall well-being. However, the traditional post-occupancy evaluation (POE) process for spaces large parks is extremely difficult, especially long-term user experiences through observations, surveys, interviews. On other hand, media has emerged major outlet recording millions of to public, which provides opportunities inform how space...

The role of technology in landscape architecture (TLA) has significantly evolved since the 19th century, increasingly integrating with digital tools and technologies 21st century. Despite its growing importance, there is a notable deficiency scholarly literature regarding progression TLA trends their interplay core domains research themes within research. influence on remains ambiguous, especially concerning ability to generate new knowledge impact design sustainability practices....

Abstract Urban and community forestry is a specialized discipline focused on the meticulous management of trees forests within urban, suburban, town environments. This field often entails extensive civic involvement collaborative partnerships with institutions. Its overarching objectives span spectrum from preserving water quality, habitat, biodiversity to mitigating Heat Island (UHI) effect. The UHI phenomenon, characterized by notably higher temperatures in urban areas compared rural...

Over the past two decades, research on residential segregation and environmental justice has evolved from spatial assimilation models to include class theory social stratification. This study leverages recent advances in machine learning examine how environmental, economic, demographic factors contribute ethnic segregation, using Las Vegas as a case with broader urban relevance. By integrating traditional econometric techniques deep models, investigates (1) correlation between housing...

Very volatile organic compounds (VVOCs) are a group of important odor pollutants affecting indoor air quality that have been shown to be harmful human health. A 15 L environmental chamber, combined with multi-bed tube was used collect gases. Fifteen very (VVOCs), including 12 compounds, were identified from veneered medium density fiberboard coated water-based lacquer (WB-MDF) using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/olfactometry (GC-MS/O). The total compound (TVVOC) and intensity (TOI)...

The suburbs around Shanghai have a complex river network and unique Chinese water-town culture. riparian landscape in the rural Qingxi area has important regional, ecological, social significance; it serves as an part of local bioclimate, but existing studies on vegetation did not pay enough attention to countryside metropolis. goal this study was examine comprehensive evaluation model for plant surrounding high-density metropolis such face national policy revitalization low-carbon...

In China, traditional food is a significant element of culture that affects human behaviors. The point interest (POI) restaurants’ location and their volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions affect the urban ecology. Rather than examine potential development patch (PUDP) based on land use data, perspective this paper to PUDP, air quality, in ecology Chengdu, China. Methods: First, research identifies three types PUDP models (open landscape conflict PUDP) with weighted overlay then uses...

OverviewThis research seeks to explore the meaning of Technology in Landscape Architecture (TLA) as part (LA)'s body knowledge. It will investigate TLA and its emerging specializations, along with related core domains associated topical areas. This exploration also examine inter-relationships DTT methods within landscape a way analyze significance on 21st century LA domains. In this study context, draw from three realms knowledge: (1) Digital Tools (DTT) LA; (2) Core Domains; (3) Trends,...

Home renovation can improve our living environment, but it cause pollution and endanger human health. Wood-based panels are a main source of polluting volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This article studied the VOC concentration different types decorative particleboards (PBs) panel area–volume ratio, effect ratio on release various substances. In this study, experimental conditions as follows: temperature was controlled at 230.5°C; humidity 50%3%; rate ventilation once 1 h. And 15-L...

Unfinished, polyvinyl chloride-faced (PVC-faced), and melamine-finished particleboards were examined to determine the effects of VOCs released from these on indoor air quality. A climate chamber GC/MS was used analyze changes in concentration volatile organic compounds (VOCs) over a single cycle 28 days. The main pollutants unfinished particleboard esters, aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes ketones; PVC-faced ketones. had lowest impact When reached their stable floor-level values, quality...

Indoor air quality has become a focus of people’s attention. The emission characteristics and health risks volatile organic compounds (VOCs) the odor emitted from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) overlaid particleboard were investigated. A synthetic index-olfactory evaluation method was used to estimate PVC, caused by VOCs based on technology gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy/olfactometry. Olfactory analyses instrument detection implemented identify crucial odor-active compounds. results...

To solve the odor emission problem of lacquer veneer particleboards, as well to identify key compounds and their sources, alkyd resin enamel-coated particleboards were studied via gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy-olfactometry. A single-factor experiment was established under various environmental conditions. The odor-causing identified, effects factors on volatile organic (VOCs) emissions investigated. results showed that main substances released from particleboard aromatic compounds,...
