Abstract

Recently, the research on the relationship between geographical environment exposure and public health has attracted notable attention. The concept of geographical environment includes three dimensions, namely natural environment, built environment and social and humanistic environment. Whereas, health refers to a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. As a result, medical geography, which focuses on the association between disease and environment, is gradually shifting into the field of health geography. Differences in the effects of geographical environment exposure on health of different populations as well as the environmental justice research are important topics of health geography. The research on geographic environmental exposure and health effects, which couples spatiotemporal behavior and multi-source spatiotemporal big data, is deepening and developing rapidly. On the whole, the new research paradigm of “geographical environment exposurespatiotemporal behavior-health” will help to further expand the future research in the field of health geography.
