Measures of greenspace exposure and their association to health-related outcomes for the periods before and during 2020’s Lockdown: A cross-sectional study in the West of England (2023)
Journal Article
Fouad, A. Z., Sinnett, D., Bray, I., McClatchey, R., & Reece, R. (in press). Measures of greenspace exposure and their association to health-related outcomes for the periods before and during 2020’s Lockdown: A cross-sectional study in the West of England. Land,

Greenspaces are argued to be one of the important features in the urban environment that impact the health of the population. Previous research suggested either positive, negative or no associations between greenspaces and health-related outcomes. Th...
