摘要
雖然城市綠化能夠有助于身心健康這一觀點已在景觀和城市規劃中得到了廣泛認可,但是其仍缺乏具體的研究成果來支持。本文探討“綠色植被”和健康之間的關聯如何在景觀和城市設計的歷史進程中得到發展,并提出以明確實證為支持在城市中創建更多更高品質的綠色植被基礎的迫切需要。我們就增加城市綠色植被和改善公共健康之間的諸多假設性的因果關聯進行了討論,并根據廣泛的文獻綜述,對那些發現了這二者之間關聯方面的近期研究予以了著重闡述。除此之外,本文還對未來的研究方向提出了建議。

Abstract
The doctrine that urban greenery is positively associated with physical and mental health is widely acknowledged in landscape and urban planning, but is not underpinned by specific research findings. This paper examines how the association between “greenery” and health has developed through the history of landscape and urban design, and sets out the need for clear evidence based research as the foundation of credible arguments for the provision of more and better quality greenery in the city. We discuss the many hypothetical causal pathways between increased urban greenery and improving public health, and from a broad literature review we highlight recent research studies that have found associations between them. Directions for future research are suggested.

重要卻被低估的景觀功能—提升專注力
A Significant but Under-Appreciated Benefit of Landscape Architecture: Supporting People’s Capacity to Pay Attention
作者:威廉·C·蘇利文 William C. SULLIVAN
摘要
專注力—即將注意力集中在某一想法或任務上,同時屏蔽大腦中諸多刺激與思緒—是所有人類成就的基礎。但是這項能力卻是一種有限的資源,我們會在專注過程中變得疲勞而無法集中注意力。科學家們最近發現:接觸綠色空間,即便是高密度城市中的綠色空間,也是恢復專注力的一種有效方法。因此,公園、相互連通的綠色廊道、行道樹、雨水花園、綠色屋頂、綠色景觀墻等綠色空間的功能不止局限于提供生態系統服務,它們還能幫助人們集中注意力,并在保持專注的過程中實現人生活中的目標。這項研究成果意味著我們應該加倍努力在每一扇門前營造出綠色自然環境。

Abstract
Our capacity to pay attention — to direct our focus toward one idea or task while excluding from our minds a host of competing stimuli and thoughts — is key to every human achievement. But our ability to pay attention is a limited resource, it fatigues with use. Scientists have recently discovered that having contact with green spaces, even in otherwise dense urban settings, is an effective way to restore our ability to focus. Thus, green spaces in the form of parks, interconnected green corridors, street trees, rain gardens, green roofs and green walls do more than provide ecosystem services. They help people concentrate their attention and in doing so, help us achieve our goals in life. One implication of these findings is that we should re-double our efforts to ensure that we provide nature at every doorstep.

健康的城市生態與健康的人
Connecting Healthy Urban Ecology with Human Health
作者:張俊彥,唐宜君 Chun-Yen CHANG, I-Chun TANG
摘要
我們的城市建設已將人類隔離于生態世界之外。然而,近期實驗證據表明,自然環境是影響人類健康,尤其是城市居民健康的一個重要因素。在本文中,我們提出了“健康的城市生態與健康的人”的概念框架,倡導健康的城市生態可以支撐健康城市生活的觀點,通過對生態及人類健康兩個方面的綜合考慮,我們可以形成健康城市發展的可行途徑。我們建議以實證為基礎的療愈性景觀設計。創造一個健康的城市需要考慮城市居民的身心健康,同時也需要考慮生態建設,包括綜合考慮空間解決方案、自然格局和生態流,以及文化和環境的社會經濟條件。也就是說,建立一個健康的城市必須同時考慮人類健康與生態建設,發展兩者兼備的城市環境。雖然我們不能創造一個具有這兩方面所有品質的城市綠地空間,但至少應采取行動,尋找機會,在城市環境開發中至少滿足這些目標的某些方面。我們應為了人與自然世界的和諧尋求機會以創造健康城市環境。借由所提出的框架,我們建議城市規劃師和景觀設計師利用所介紹的理論和環境因子來創造出健康城市。這一目標的實現對個人和城市都將帶來有利影響。

Abstract
Our cities have been created to isolate humans from the ecological world. However, recent empirical evidence shows that the natural environment is a crucial determinant of human health, especially for urban dwellers. In the current article, we propose a conceptual framework of “healthy urban ecology and healthy people” to advocate the idea that healthy urban ecology can support healthy urban living, and by considering both aspects, we might reach a feasible approach to developing healthy cities. We suggest an evidence-based therapeutic landscape design. Creating a healthy city requires spatial development that considers both the physiological and psychological health and wellbeing of urban dwellers. A healthy city also needs ecological construction that considers a spatial solution, natural patterns and ecological flows, and the culture and socioeconomics of the environment. Moreover, the creation of a healthy city must include the idea of ecological construction with human health to develop an urban environment that includes both features. Although we cannot create a green space that has all of these qualities in both features, actions should be taken to find opportunities to fulfill at least some aspects of these goals in the development of urban environments. We should make every attempt to create a healthy city for humans and the natural world. With the proposed framework, we suggest city planners and landscape architects to use the introduced theories and environmental factors to create healthy cities. Achieving this goal will benefit both individuals and cities.

親自然的景觀設計對改善健康與福祉的作用
The Role of Biophilic Design in Landscape Architecture for Health and Well-being
作者:喬·克蘭西,雷康玲 Joe CLANCY, Catie RYAN
摘要
截至2007年,全球50%以上的人口生活在城市。隨著城市居民越來越多,全球城市化的水平不斷提高,而城市中心的綠色空間與自然環境卻不斷減少。親自然設計的目的是在我們建造與設計的環境中恢復自然刺激,以保護、維持、恢復、提高我們與自然世界在生理、認知和心理上的聯系。作為助益健康的一種途徑,親自然設計可以催化景觀設計在改善城市環境中的公眾健康方面發揮核心作用。

Abstract
As of 2007, over 50% of the global population is now urban. With more global urbanites, has come increased urbanisation and displacement of green space and natural environments from our urban centres. Biophilic design aims to restore natural stimuli in our built and designed environments to protect, maintain, restore and enhance our physiological, cognitive and psychological connections with the natural world. As part of a wider salutogenic approach to health, biophilic design has the potential to catalyze landscape architecture into playing a central role in public health of urban environments.

Abstract
Through territorial and simple place-making moves, the project establishes a landscape framework for the growth of Hopley Farms, an informal settlement in Harare, Zimbabwe. The provision of social hubs that informal dwellers usually do not build on their own become the centerpiece infrastructures that complement the future self-built city. A territorial growth pattern, rainwater management and an agroforestry system are linked to create a healthy community by tackling issues that plague Harare and its future growth.

農業都市主義:城郊地區的發展
Agro-Urbanism: Peri-Urban Developments

摘要
隨著農業科技的進步、景觀同質化和城市發展,那些為不斷提升工業模式效率而進行的研究和開發使我們的土地成了犧牲品。隨著人口的不斷增長,城市周邊的土地不斷被開發。土地開發之所以帶來負面影響是由于缺乏健康的導則和監管標準。為了應對食物和生態資源的喪失,“農業都市主義”這項研究試圖為位于美國地理中心的內布拉斯加州林肯市的城郊地區(城市周邊地區)的發展提供一種全新的、健康的城市框架,這一框架建立在對公共空間系統和基本農田(土壤等級I-II)的保留和保護基礎之上。

Abstract
Research and development devoted to streamlining our inherently progressive industrial model sacrifices the land with the advancement of agricultural technologies, mono-cultured landscapes and the urban development. As our population increases, land continues to be developed around our cities. The negative connotations of land development are due to a lack of healthy guidelines and regulation standards. In an effort to combat against food and ecological resource losses, this research Agro-Urbanism① attempts to provide a new healthy city framework for peri-urban (urban perimeter) development in Lincoln, Nebraska, the geographic center of the United States, based on the conservation and preservation of open space networks and prime farmland (Soil Class I-II).

墨西哥城:重組過程中的水景改造
Mexico City: A Transformed Waterscape in the Process of Reconfiguration
作者:洛蕾塔·卡斯特魯·雷古拉-曼塞拉 Loreta Castro REGUERA-MANCERA
摘要
墨西哥城建立于1325年,古名“特諾奇提特蘭”,它位于一個內流盆地湖泊系統的中心。其所在的地理位置對于城市的形態起著決定性作用:這里由疏浚過的渠道和“水中田畦”——即人工地塊,這種田畦系統對于城市的居住和功能等各個方面有著決定性的作用——組成。作為一個大都市,其充滿矛盾的歷史發展,深刻影響了它的景觀和城市形態。如今,城市發展已經完全不再倚仗水景,而是被改造成由土和石構成的系統,而伴隨這一突變而來的卻是嚴峻的后果。由于建造在一個動蕩的湖床上并持續受到洪水的影響,這個有著2 200萬人口的大都市已經使得自身淡水資源逐漸枯竭,還面臨著土地下沉等相關問題。所幸的是,上文所提及的渠道系統并沒有完全喪失。在盆地的南側,那片曾被稱為“索奇米爾科”(那瓦特語,意為“播種鮮花的土地”)和提拉霍克(那瓦特語,意
為“水之地”)的古鎮,還依舊保留著一種通過理解原始景觀所蘊藏的益處而生活的方式,他們在經濟上、社會上都依賴于水中田畦系統。盡管在盆地各地恢復這一類型的城市肌理的想法不太實際,但它提供了一種與水完全融和的城市設計范式。除此之外,世界上其他城市在處理水景方面也有著成功經驗,
這使得我們意識到,水可以成為城市的資產而非威脅。這種情況對設計相關的專業人士而言既意味著機遇,也意味著責任,因為提供能夠保證城市未來生存力的解決方案是他們所應關注的范疇。本文探討了墨西哥城在干旱的景觀條件下,如何以水為基礎并依水而設計。

Abstract
Mexico City was founded in 1325, under the name of Tenochtitlan, in the center of the lake system of an endorheic basin. Its geographical position was fundamental in the conception of its form: a settlement of dredged channels and constructed pieces of land, called chinampas, which determined every aspect of habitability and use. The history of this metropolis has been a conflicting one, profoundly affecting its landscape and urban form. Today, far from having a waterscape, the development of the city has transformed its context into an earth and stone setting with severe effects resulting from this mutation. The 22 million-megalopolis, built upon the unstable ground of a lakebed, continuously floods, has depleted its freshwater sources, and suffers from profound ground subsidence related problems. However, not all traces of the above mentioned city of channels are lost. The southern part of the basin, the former towns of Xochimilco and Tlahuac, still have a lifestyle that relies on the understanding of the benefits that the original landscape provided, economically and socially dependent on the system of chinampas. Despite the fact that it is impossible to recover this type of urban fabric around the basin, these burrows set a paradigm of an urban design fully blended with water. Beyond these examples, several other cities around the world have managed to successfully deal with their waterscapes, making of water an asset instead of a menace. This condition raises an opportunity and an obligation for the design related professionals as it is in their sphere to provide solutions that guarantee the city’s future viability. This article tells the story of an ongoing effort to design for and with water in the apparently dry landscape of Mexico City.
