The restorative effects of soundscapes on human physical and mental well-being are widely recognized, but their effectiveness is influenced by various factors, including external environments individual characteristics. Despite being a crucial element in environmental experience, the role behavior has been insufficiently studied. To address this research gap, we conducted survey five parks Fuzhou, China, using questionnaires to assess visitors’ evaluations soundscape characteristics, experiences, behavioral A total 419 valid responses were collected. Using these data, employed structural equation model conditional process analysis explore interaction between visitor experiences. results show that with pleasantness eventfulness promote static behaviors certain degree, while dynamic solely soundscapes. In which characteristics influence only mediating factor, accounting for 8% effect. Additionally, increased visit intensity enhances impact experiences weakening effect behavior. These findings provide strong support relevant design considerations.

Leisure walking can improve the physical and mental health of urban people. Especially, riverfront streets have a comfortable blue space that bring higher pedestrian benefits. Improving quality service (PQOS) is crucial. However, needs citizens for daily activities are rarely considered in streets. This paper established evaluation system PQOS from five aspects accessibility, attractiveness, comfort, safety pleasure, realized collection calculation indicators through syntax, semantic segmentation other methods. Taking Jilin Riverfront Streets as examples, was evaluated. Through establishment coordinate system, were divided into four categories: Advantage, Maintain, Opportunity Improvement The renewal strategies proposed. results showed great room improvement. natural openness ratio visual index improvement need to be enhanced. Most opportunity located residential, industrial biophilic districts. number types facilities increased. method assist designers update streets, provide data support that.

To alleviate the contradiction between high-density urban spatial environments and high-frequency citizens’ activities, it is vital to determine degree of openness waterfront space, figure out matching relationship vitality intensity, identify imbalanced zones divide order intervention, compensate for limitations subjective judgment in traditional planning decisions. This paper uses Changsha Xiangjiang River space as a research sample based on multi-source data. It constructs evaluation indicators system framework space. Then, by evaluating intensity adopting quadrant division method, with mismatched were identified. Finally, interventions are prioritized priority index. The results show following: (1) distribution characteristics “high middle low north south” east bank west bank”. (2) Fifteen low-quality “low openness” one severe imbalance openness–high intensity” These cannot meet requirements high-quality development (3) study delineates five levels interventions. Among them, three belong V, mainly distributed south River. Five belonging IV concentrated above areas need be improvement accurately promote overall balanced
