Mobility viewpoint needs to be recognized in urban greening policies! 🚴🌳🏙️
New #GREENTRAVEL paper out!
A perspective paper by Silviya Korpilo et al., published in Ambio, describes how people’s contact with urban nature often happens when moving through space.

Järjestelläänkö nyt Titanicin kansituoleja? Miltä tuntuu tutkijoista, jotka näkevät tilanteen työpöydällään joka päivä? Kirjoitin aiheesta.
Schematic of the workflow in the article. Leftmost panel shows a representation of the input data with high diversity in the types of place names resulting from typographical errors, character encoding errors, language-specific spellings and use of different scripts. The centre panel shows the general workflow from preprocessing to geocoding and finally to validation. The rightmost panel shows the spatially enriched Erasmus+ mobility data on a map with edge-bundled flows representing different intensities of student mobility across NUTS 3 regions in Europe.
🚨🌍 NEW ARTICLE 🌍🚨
We geocoded the #mobility of over 2 million #Erasmus students across #Europe from 2014 to 2022 with @miladmzdh.bsky.social, Oula Inkeröinen & @ollejarv.bsky.social.

Two maps of US unemployment rates by county. They are identical except that the legend in the second has been converted into a histogram.
Your map’s legend can be turned into a histogram, helping your audience understand the distribution in addition to decoding the colours.
