摘要

This study establishes a framework to assess greenspace supply-demand disparities related to thermal discomfort from the perspective of population mobility across urban functional zones (UFZs). High-resolution greenspace maps and location-based service (LBS) datasets for Nanjing, China, were combined with Spearman correlation analyses and a four-quadrant model to elucidate associations and matching patterns between greenspace exposure and thermal comfort. The findings indicate that population fluctuations affect the availability of actual greenspace, with correlations to thermal discomfort showing significant temporal variations among different UFZs. During morning workday hours, commercial zones have a significantly higher representation in Quadrant II (82.26%) compared to non-workdays (70.86%), which is characterized by high population density, low greenspace exposure, and pronounced thermal discomfort. In contrast, residential and public service zones maintain consistently high and stable proportions in Quadrant I across all periods. This spatial mismatch is primarily caused by differences in available greenspace quantities and population mobility. Planning adjustments should focus on ensuring sufficient greenspace provision in key areas during peak population mobility periods to mitigate thermal discomfort. Minimizing residents’ staying time in thermally uncomfortable zones, implementing time-specific greenspace access, and strategically increasing greenspace coverage are essential for improving the mismatch between greenspace supply and demand.
