了解城市生态系统服务的动态变化是充分规划、管理和治理城市绿色基础设施的必要要求。通过为期三年的城市生物多样性和生态系统服务(URBES)研究项目,我们对欧洲和美国的七个城市的城市生物多样性和生态系统服务进行了案例研究和比较研究。回顾>50个来自该项目的同行评审出版物,我们提出并讨论了反映该项目累积结果的七个关键见解以及城市生态系统服务研究的最新知识。我们审查的见解表明,跨部门、多尺度、跨学科的研究正开始为在城市地区和土地管理中应用生态系统服务框架提供坚实的科学基础。我们的审查为寻求新颖的、基于自然的解决方案来应对新出现的城市挑战提供了基础,例如邪恶的环境变化问题。
Understanding the dynamics of urban ecosystem services is a necessary requirement for adequate planning, management, and governance of urban green infrastructure. Through the three-year Urban Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (URBES) research project, we conducted case study and comparative research on urban biodiversity and ecosystem services across seven cities in Europe and the United States. Reviewing >50 peer-reviewed publications from the project, we present and discuss seven key insights that reflect cumulative findings from the project as well as the state-of-the-art knowledge in urban ecosystem services research. The insights from our review indicate that cross-sectoral, multiscale, interdisciplinary research is beginning to provide a solid scientific foundation for applying the ecosystem services framework in urban areas and land management. Our review offers a foundation for seeking novel, nature-based solutions to emerging urban challenges such as wicked environmental change issues.
