Core Tip Nature-based interventions, in the context of global urbanization, are a new approach for preventing and alleviating adolescent depression. However, there are, notably, both opportunities and challenges in obtaining a systematic understanding of their mechanisms and applying them effectively. To mobilize the full potential of the natural environment and truly empower adolescent mental health, it is necessary to obtain a clear understanding of the core influencing factors and to comprehensively explore the standardized integration of nature into mental health protection systems.
