Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Australia. Urban nature (e.g. greenness, water, species diversity) is likely to protect against CVD, yet researchers lack knowledge about how this occurs. This project will develop new methods to measure urban nature and examine the relationships with different CVD risk factors (e.g. physical activity, air quality). The results of this project will inform urban planning policy, and help to create healthy cities that reduce CVD.

心血管疾病（CVD）是澳大利亚的主要死亡原因。城市自然（如绿化、水、物种多样性）可能会预防CVD，但研究人员缺乏关于这是如何发生的知识。该项目将开发新的方法来测量城市自然，并研究与不同CVD风险因素（如体力活动，空气质量）的关系。该项目的结果将为城市规划政策提供信息，并有助于创建减少CVD的健康城市。
