To address challenges associated with climate resilience, health and well-being in urban areas, current policy platforms are shifting their focus from ecosystem-based to nature-based solutions (NBS), broadly defined as societal that inspired supported by nature. NBS result the provision of co-benefits, such improvement place attractiveness, quality life, creation green jobs. Few frameworks exist for acknowledging assessing value co-benefits guide cross-sectoral project design implementation....
Abstract The beginning of the 21st century marks first time in history that more than half world's population lives urban areas. In Europe, 70% areas today. This number is likely to increase 84% by 2050. However, a shift from growth decline already present for growing cities. paper examines trends 158 European agglomerations and assesses dynamics behind one particular development or decline. Using data 1991 2004, we statistical evidence diversifying trajectories core cities fringe...

Challenges for a sustainable urban development are increasingly important in cities because urbanization and related land take come up with negative challenges the environment city residents. Searching successful solutions to environmental problems requires combined efforts of different scientific disciplines an active dialogue between stakeholders from policy society. In this paper, we present comparative assessment way policy-science dialogues have achieved knowledge co-production about...
Ecosystem services (ES) are gaining increasing attention as a promising concept to more actively consider and plan for the varied benefits of urban environment. Yet, have an impact on decision-making, must spread from academia practice. To understand how ES been taken up in planning discourses we conducted cross-case comparison documents Berlin, New York, Salzburg, Seattle Stockholm. We found: (1) explicit references were primarily Stockholm two cities countries that entered into early. (2)...
In European cities, the rate of population growth has declined significantly, while number households increased. This increase in is associated with an space for housing. To date, effects both a declining and decreasing household numbers remain unclear. this paper, we analyse relationship between development 188 cities from 1990–2000 2000–2006 to urban land area per capita living space. Our results support trend toward simultaneously increasing number. However, also found cites facing...
As rates of urbanization and climatic change soar, decision-makers are increasingly challenged to provide innovative solutions that simultaneously address climate impacts risks inclusively ensure quality life for urban residents. Cities have turned nature-based help these challenges. Nature-based solutions, through the provision ecosystem services, can yield numerous benefits people multiple challenges simultaneously. Yet, efforts mainstream impaired by complexity interacting social,...
Nature-based solutions (NBS) were introduced as integrated, multifunctional and multi-beneficial to a wide array of socio-ecological challenges. Although principles for common understanding implementation NBS already developed on landscape scale, specific are needed with regard an application in urban areas. Urban areas come particular challenges including (i) spatial conflicts system nestedness, (ii) biodiversity, fragmentation altered environments, (iii) value plurality, multi-actor...
