管理小组如何促进城市生态系统服务的管理？在本文中，我们将环境管理的研究与社会生态系统文献相结合，解释管理小组如何作为公共机构和民间组织之间的桥梁组织，跨规模和部门工作，以建立管理复杂的城市生态系统所需的灵活和多尺度的能力。通过对纽约市管理团队调查收集的数据进行分析，并结合与联系最紧密的公民“枢纽”组织代表的开放式半结构化访谈，我们采用混合方法来了解桥梁组织在保护当地生态系统服务过程中的具体活动。本文的结论是桥梁组织在纽约市的城市生态系统服务管理的作用正在增加，这些群体在网络中有一个特定的双模式的作用，以及最初存在的异质组织关系是至关重要的，在他们的发展。本文最后讨论了这些结果的影响。
How do stewardship groups contribute to the management of urban ecosystem services? In this paper, we integrate the research on environmental stewardship with the social–ecological systems literature to explain how stewardship groups serve as bridge organizations between public agencies and civic organizations, working across scales and sectors to build the flexible and multi-scaled capacity needed to manage complex urban ecosystems. Analyzing data collected from a survey of stewardship groups in New York City, combined with open-ended semi-structured interviews with representatives from the most connected civic “hub” organizations, we use a mixed-method approach to understand the specific activities of bridge organizations in the process of preserving local ecosystem services. This paper concludes that the role of bridge organizations in the management of urban ecosystem services in New York City is increasing, that these groups have a specific bi-modal role in the network, and that an initial presence of heterarchic organizational relations was crucial in their development. The paper ends with a discussion of the implications of these results.
