Climate change is increasingly affecting the livability and functionality of urban environments, particularly public open spaces (POSs), impacting user behavior in complex ways that require a comprehensive, multi-perspective approach to understanding. This study reviews current progress, methodologies, findings POS research by proposing critical analytical framework focused on key spatial temporal factors contribute design climate adaptive solutions. Overall, 62 significant influencing were identified categorized into four subject areas, environmental factors, attributes, population society, behavioral perceptions, which further divided 12 themes. These analyzed through two-dimensional using co-occurrence matrix examine interactions. The reveal dimensions do not operate independently but interact significantly influence usability. also indicate such as temperature, solar radiation intensity, wind speed when combined with like site facilities, greenness, walkability. Understanding these interactions essential for optimizing enhance adaptability long-term By promoting principles based empirical research, this review offers insights practical guidance future planning address change.

How to design, renovate and upgrade urban green space (UGS) meet the human needs of changing population is a globally increasing emphasis. However, there no systemic consistent framework assess how UGS meets needs. This study develops four hierarchal levels (nine-indicator) for assessing in meeting surrounding groups applies it twenty UGSs Southeast Queensland (SEQ), Australia. The conceptual developed this categorizes into levels—prerequisites (accessibility, security, legibility), basic (privacy sociality), higher-level (education, health, special needs), highest-level (personal identity). It was found that SEQ region lack sufficient attention legibility, convenience, education needs, design Anzac Park, Rock Riverside Riverdale Les Atkinson Gold Coast Regional Botanic Garden, Alexander Clark Park have significantly deviated from today's requirements they should be focus future renovation upgrades.

Rapid urbanisation has highlighted the importance of urban green spaces (UGS) in promoting environmental sustainability and human wellbeing, yet gap between planning practices community preferences remains a significant challenge. This study investigated residents’ perceptions attitudes towards UGS neighbourhood an Italian city (Quartiere Marconi, Imola), focusing on understanding both strengths limitations existing public from users’ perspectives. Through comprehensive questionnaire survey 126 residents, we examined associations socio-demographic characteristics four aspects utilisation: visiting purposes, barriers to visits, satisfaction levels, suggestions for improvement.

Particularly, 31–45 46–60 age groups, characterised by family-caring career responsibilities, showed distinct social activities, while individual users focused more nature enjoyment. Although accessibility was generally sufficient, levels varied significantly based living arrangements, with families emphasising facility-related issues prioritising natural features. These findings suggest successful requires attention high-quality elements user-oriented facilities meet diverse needs different stages. represents preliminary phase project, which concerns redevelopment area under study, order create inclusive UGS, taking into account resident population.
