Estimating water availability and demand for urban green with a minimal model Urban green infrastructure (UGI) is key in retaining stormwater and mitigating the urban heat island effect, thus complementing efforts in climate change adaptation. However, UGI itself is vulnerab...

Foto mit Gruppe, die vor einer Person steht und zuhört, zeigt Workshop an der Hochschule Anhalt Projekt KompetenzGrün zum Thema Saatgut für naturnahe Grünflächen

Saatgut, das zählt 🌱 In unserem Workshop zu Saatgutmischungen haben 23 Teilnehmende geplant, gemischt und ausgebracht: ausschließlich regionales, zertifiziertes Saatgut. Denn das ist ein Schlüssel zu mehr Biodiversität im urbanen Raum. #biodiversity #urbangreen #KompetenzGrün

New York City Rebuilds a Waterfront Park to Hold Back Rising Seas After a $1.45 billion makeover, East River Park promises to use massive sea walls and earthen berms to protect Lower Manhattan from flooding. But for how long?

Resilience in action! 🌊🏙️ NYC's massive flood protection project is showing how we can protect our communities from rising seas while creating green spaces for our kids. Adapting to the future is possible! #ClimateResilience #UrbanGreen #ClimateAction #NYC

5 Tage Weiterbildung an der Uni Hildesheim. 2024 hielt ich hier einen Vortrag über Blühwiesen. Nun soll eine Schattenfläche aufblühen. Kurz vorm Dunkelwerden mal schnell noch inspiziert – und meine Erfahrungen geteilt. 🌱

Assessing the role of environmental factors in shaping human thermal comfort within urban parks

"Urban Parks & Thermal Comfort" by Czarnecka et al. shows vegetation can reduce heat stress by up to 7°C, while built-up areas increase it. Highlights the importance of integrated park design for climate resilience.spkl.io/63321AU6cU #UrbanGreen

What Is a Miyawaki Forest? These small forests could have a mighty impact on local ecosystems.

Madrid, la única gran capital que cierra sus parques con calor extremo Barcelona, Sevilla o Bilbao mantienen accesibles sus zonas verdes y los adaptan como oasis climáticos

Increíble.., I can't believe it! #heatwave #madrid #urbangreen

Data and methods for assessing urban green infrastructure using GIS: A systematic review Comprehensive and visual assessments utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offer an empirical foundation for the planning, construction, and optimization of Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI), effectively promoting its sustainable development. A comprehensive review of this field clarifies the research methods, application scope, trends, and challenges associated with using GIS to advance UGI development. This study synthesizes research findings from the Science Citation Index (SCI) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) within the Web of Science (WOS) database, as well as from the Scopus database, for the period from January 1, 2020, to June 30, 2024. The initial dataset included 640 articles from WOS and 952 articles from Scopus. After removing 1,572 duplicates and irrelevant studies, the final selection consisted of 20 articles. The integration of both WOS and Scopus databases ensures a comprehensive capture of current trends and limitations in GIS-based UGI assessments. This study centers on the scope, data sources, theoretical models, analyses, and objectives of GIS-based UGI assessments. The research indicates that over the past five years, GIS-based UGI assessments have primarily focused on areas such as accessibility, ecosystem service potential, resilience, and environmental justice, in addition to non-ecological aspects such as social benefits and aesthetics. While the integration of diverse data and analytical indicators into GIS has enhanced assessment comprehensiveness, and AI technologies have deepened data analysis, field research with urban residents remains crucial, underscoring the importance of inclusiveness in the study. This study also reveals a significant increase in interdisciplinarity in GIS-based assessments of UGI. The integration of assessment methods from ecology, computer science, urban planning, sociology, aesthetics, and other disciplines demonstrates that research in this field has fully considered ecological, social, economic, and humanistic factors, thereby more comprehensively reflecting the integrated needs of sustainable urban development.

A systematic review shows how GIS is transforming urban green infrastructure! Integrating ecology, tech, and social insights, GIS boosts resilience and justice in city planning. #UrbanGreen #GIS #SustainableCities.
