- The value of Twitter data for determining the emotional responses of people to urban green spaces: A case study and critical evaluation (2019, background): “Contact with the natural environment is understood to be a fundamental component of human and societal well-being (Chiesura, 2004; Fuller and Gaston, 2009; Miller, 2005; Wilson, 1984).”
- Green Roofs and Green Walls for Biodiversity Conservation: A Contribution to Urban Connectivity? (2018, background): “Although an overall increase of the green space area was measured in European cities from 2000–2006 [69], cities remain often too sparsely vegetated [7].”
- Usage and perception of urban green space of older adults in the high-density city of Hong Kong (2021, background): “Moreover, with increasing urbanisation, it becomes more difficult for urban dwellers to leave the city and visit relatively larger natural environment (Fuller and Gaston, 2009).”
- Features and Functions of Multifunctional Urban Agriculture in the Global North: A Review (2020, positive): “The percentage of green space in the cities of EU varies from 3 to 4 m2 per person (Reggio Calabria, Italy) to more than 300 m2 per person (e.g., Liège, Belgium, Oulu, Finland, and Valenciennes, France) (Fuller and Gaston, 2009).”
- Magnitude of urban heat islands largely explained by climate and population (2019, background): “Green urban area and population have superlinear scaling in EU cities 52 , whereas sublinear scaling is found in the tropics (Supplementary Fig.”
