“…Among them, the spatial physical environment dimension refers to the physical landscape composed of natural elements and artificial elements that represent all landscape elements in the forest park and their spatial forms that directly affect the senses of tourists. Existing research has found that the urban forest park landscape quality (LQ) is an important resource that increases residents' quality of life [29], and the evaluation of research on the role of landscape quality is relatively comprehensive and systematic. Most urban forest park attendees are non-professionals; therefore, environmental preference is used in this concept.…”

The positive behaviors that urban forest parks encourage in urban residents (such as recommendations, repeat visits, etc.) are important considerations in the planning and construction of such forest parks. Recreators’ environmental preferences and perceived satisfaction with urban forest parks are responses to individuals’ perceptions and attitudes toward the external environment. Clarifying the interactive relationship between the two is of great significance to improving positive behavioral intentions in urban forest parks. In this paper, the concept of the urban forest park recreational environment is proposed, and in this concept, the three dimensions of the spatial physical environmental preference, regional cultural characteristics, and service experience that the urban forest park recreational environment has on tourists’ perception are separated out. A model of the structural relationship between park environment perception, perceived satisfaction, and post-tour behavioral intention was tested using Tongzhou Grand Canal Forest Park as an example. The psychological path of tourists’ behavioral intention after visiting the urban forest park can be divided into two categories: the direct influencing path is “urban forest park recreation environment → post-tour behavioral intention”; the indirect influencing path is “urban forest park recreation environment → perceived satisfaction → behavioral intention after the trip”. This shows that tourists’ preference for the urban forest park recreation environment will promote the generation of perceived satisfaction and then stimulate in-depth comprehensive experience evaluation after visiting. By enhancing tourists’ experience of the urban forest park recreational environment through their environmental preference perception and improving tourists’ perceived satisfaction with the urban forest park recreational environment, urban forest parks can improve tourists’ positive behavioral intentions. Clarifying these complex psychological processes provides a new perspective for understanding people’s cognition of urban forest parks, the physiological and psychological benefits produced, and the resulting behavioral tendencies. At the same time, it also provides a new perspective for the planning and design of similar types of urban forest parks. It provides a certain reference value for forest park management.

“…In recent years, many microclimate and thermal comfort related research mainly focused on the thermal environment in different urban environmental sites in inland areas [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Such as indoor and outdoor buildings [10], urban parks [14][15][16][17][18][19], streets [20][21][22][23][24], and the influence of plant species and forest types on thermal comfort [25][26][27][28]. Amani-Beni, M et al [25] confirmed the cooling impact of large urban parks on their surrounding architectural environment in summer by measuring air temperature and relative humidity; Blachowski, J et al [26] took Wroclaw as a case to evaluate the cooling effect of four urban parks at different scales in the temperate continental climate zone; Santiago, JL et al [28] investigated the impact of forests on urban thermal comfort and air quality; Yang Shimin et al [10] used Envimet software to assessing the residential thermal environment in summer in Hangzhou; Hu Yang et al [23] comprehensively simulated the impact of urban street greening on air quality and microclimate.…”

Urban forests can improve human comfort by improving the near-surface microclimate. Exploring the microclimate characteristics of urban forests and their impact on human comfort is particularly important to improve the urban thermal environment through scientific urban forest design. Since most previous studies were conducted under typical inland urban climates and little is known about the thermal regulation services of coastal urban forests, this study field measured the thermal surface radiation temperature of 16 open spaces in the urban forest site in Qinhuangdao. Then the ENVI-met software was used to simulate and analyze the microclimate characteristics before and after the park’s building-up, and compare the differences in the human comfort index in different scenarios. Results indicated that: (1) Vegetation have a significant cooling effect on surrounding environment. The farther away from vegetation area, the higher the average surface temperature. (2) Water bodies have the best cooling and humidifying effect on the 9–18 m surrounding environment with the best human comfort index. (3) In summer, air temperature in park decreased by 0.4~1.4 °C, and the relative humidity increased by 0.07~2.81%. (4) After the park’s built-up, the average human comfort index was optimized by 0.02~1.87. Arranging the leisure open space around the water bodies and forest edge space of the deciduous broad-leaved forest could improve human comfort. This research is expected to provide a scientific basis and planning inspiration for the construction of coastal urban forests in the same latitude area.
