With a keen interest in everyday landscape experiences and human perceptions of ecological landscape design, her research focuses on the human dimensions of ecological design, with the goal of informing nature-based solutions that enhance climate resilience and adaptation while creating enjoyable outdoor environments in local communities. Currently, Jiayang integrates design thinking and social science methods to work on three topics: (1) Perceived social and cultural benefits of novel nature-based solutions; (2) Risk perception and sense of security in the context of urban flooding and adaptation; and (3) Community engagement in interdisciplinary and action research projects.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Her work has been supported by UF internal research funds and external agencies like the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.

One completed study examined NBS adoption in 58 public parks across major US cities and explored the relationships between NBS typologies and the park\u2019s surrounding landscape and sociodemographic contexts. Another ongoing study focuses on living shorelines in Florida coastal communities and their social-cultural benefits.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div><div class=\"swiper-button-prev\"><\/div><div class=\"swiper-button-next\"><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Jiayang Li Assistant Professor Research Specialization(s): Office: 440 AH Contact: jiayangli@ufl.edu Jiayang is an interdisciplinary scholar working at the intersection of landscape architecture and climate change adaptation.
