Can trail spatial attributes predict trail use level in urban forest park? An examination integrating GPS data and space syntax theory

Understanding users’ spatial distribution in forest park is crucial for providing visitors with quality recreation experiences and for park planning and management. Utilizing users’ spatial distribution data, this study aims at investigating associations between trail use level and trail spatial attributes, through examining two large urban forest parks (Gongqing forest park and Paotaiwan forest park) in Shanghai, China. Users’ spatial distribution was measured utilizing GPS trackers with the interval of 10 seconds. This study conceptualizes trail spatial attributes as trail metric attributes and trail configurational attributes. Trail metric attributes include trail mean distance to gates, length, width and level of enclosure, which are calculated based on park map and on-site observation. We computed trail configurational attributes utilizing space syntax theory, which comprise measures of global integration, control, and connectivity. Trail connection with features/facilities, visual connection with water and shading are included as covariate variables. In total, we obtained 134 valid samples in Gongqing forest park and 210 valid samples in Paotaiwan forest park for analysis. Multivariate regression analyses indicate that when involving covariate variables, consistently in both parks, a greater trail usage is significantly related to trail shorter mean distance to park gate, trail width wider than 3 meters, higher global integration and higher control values. Collectively, these four trail spatial attributes explained 31.7 % (p < 0.001) and 27.3 % (p < 0.001) of the variances in trail use level in Gongqing forest park and Paotaiwan forest park. These findings provide direct implications to park designers and managers for providing visitors with different desirable social conditions, and ultimately improve users’ experiences and satisfactions.

桑悬浮细胞原生质体培养的研究

采用继代培养三个月后的桑子叶悬浮细胞为材料,进行了原生质体的分离和培养。桑悬浮细胞在纤维素酶、果胶酶、半纤维素酶的混合溶液中,酶解获得产量高、活力强的原生质体。原生质体在K8p(附加6—BA、NAA、2,4—D、LH)液体培养基中,再生细胞经多次分裂,得到肉眼可见的小愈伤组织。再通过增殖继代培养,获得浅黄色、具有明显颗粒结构的愈伤组织,转至各种激素含量的MSB固体培养基中,尚未获得绿苗分化。

Humble Opinion of Roof Gardens

1 GENERALRoof gardens can be extensively interpreted as ageneral designation, which means building variousrecreational garden on roofs, gazebos and terracesof both ancient and modern buildings, structures, andbridges (flyovers) (Jin Weiping, 1996). Cities aredensely populated and land is costly, so shortage ofland is one of the restrictive factors in green urbandevelopment. According to statistics, the green spaceis 2~3 m2 per capita in Chinese cities. As a result, todevelop roof gardens h…

新疆桑树雌蕊柱头表面超微结构观察与分类的探讨

应用扫描电镜技术观察了和田白桑、伽克1号桑、皮木1号桑的雌蕊形态结构。结果发现和田白桑、伽克1号桑的雌蕊无花柱,柱头内侧表面生有乳头状突起;皮木1号桑雌蕊无花柱,柱头内侧表面生有长毛。根据观察结果,结合其形态特征,和田白桑、伽克1号桑归类于白桑(Morus alba Linn.)较为合适;皮木1号桑有待今后进一步探讨。
