Forest therapy is known to promote physical and mental well-being, but its specific impact on physiological psychological recovery in university students, particularly across genders, remains underexplored. This study examined the effects of a five-hour forest session involving sensory-based activities 48 students (30 males 18 females). The key outcomes measured included pulse rate, heart rate variability (HRV), mood states. Significant reductions anxiety were observed, with females showing greater emotional recovery. These findings suggest that may serve as an effective intervention for stress relief, females, highlight potential therapies promoting student well-being.

Noise level and atmospheric pollutants such as particulate matter (PM) combustion gases depend on car traffic. A highly circulated area in Cluj-Napoca City (Romania) was investigated based sustainable principles. The noise at the source about 77 dB due to intense traffic of 214 units/10 min including cars, buses, trucks pedestrians. It decreased slowly 62 proximity first wall from roadside (20 m distance) significantly 50 beyond buildings near road (135 source). correlated with a high pollutant emission source: 25 µg/m3 (PM2.5), 45 (PM10) 1.023 (total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs)). PM10 38 µg/m3, while PM2.5 remained 22 TVOC slightly 0.974 distance 10 road. levels 5 18 (PM2.5) 135 road, also 0.705 µg/m3. PM crystalline structure by XRD coupled mineralogical microscopy.

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.
