City parks, important environments built for physical activity, play critical roles in preventing chronic diseases and promoting public health. We used five commonly used park indicators to investigate the spatiotemporal trend of city parks in mainland China between 1981 and 2014 at three scales: national, provincial and city class. City parks in China increased significantly with a turning poi...

Heavy metals in urban soils continue to attract attention because of their potential long-term effects on human health. During a previous investigation of urban soils in Galway City, Ireland, a pollution hotspot of Pb, Cu, Zn and As was identified in the sports ground of South Park in the Claddagh. The sports ground was formerly a rubbish dumping site for both municipal and industrial wastes. I...

These lectures are devoted to nodal geometry of eigenfunctions φλ of the Laplacian ∆g of a Riemannian manifold (M, g) of dimension m and to the associated problems on L norms of eigenfunctions. The manifolds are generally assumed to be compact, although the problems can also be posed on non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. The emphasis of these lectures is on real analytic Riemannian mani...
