城市特别容易受到气候变化的影响。城市适应气候变化的一种方法是加强绿色基础设施(GI),以减轻热浪和洪水的影响。虽然存在其他的GI设计选项,但是对于各种选项的公众支持存在许多未知因素。本研究旨在通过对城市地理标志进行气候适应的社会文化评估来填补这一空白,该评估包括多个维度:人们对气候影响的概念和关注,人们承认地理标志减轻气候影响的程度,以及人们对不同地理标志措施的偏好,包括他们的支付意愿(WTP)。数据是通过对荷兰鹿特丹居民的照片辅助面对面调查(n=200)收集的,并与GI GIS数据相关联。受访者对气候影响有概念和担忧,但不一定承认地理标志可以帮助解决这些问题。然而,当居民被告知不同地理指标的适应能力时,他们的偏好转向了最有效的选择。然而,人们的WTP对GI没有信息效应,这主要与收入和种族有关。我们的研究表明,单独的经济评估会错过本文中应用的社会文化评估可以揭示的细微差别。该方法揭示了对特定适应设计的偏好,并有助于发现气候适应政策可能受到阻碍的原因。了解人们对气候影响和适应方案的看法,对于确定应对气候变化的有效政策的优先顺序至关重要。(C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.版权所有
Cities are particularly prone to the effects of climate change. One way for cities to adapt is by enhancing their green infrastructure (GI) to mitigate the impacts of heat waves and flooding. While alternative GI design options exist, there are many unknoWns regarding public support for the various options. This study aims to fill this gap by performing a socio-cultural valuation of urban GI for climate adaptation that encompasses multiple dimensions: people's notion of and concerns about climate impacts, the degree to which people acknowledge the benefits of GI to alleviate such impacts, and people's preferences for different GI measures, including their willingness to pay (WTP). Data were collected through photo-assisted face-to-face surveys (n=200.) with residents in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and linked to GI GIS data. Respondents had a notion of and concerns about climate impacts, but did not necessarily acknowledge that GI may help tackle these issues. Yet, when residents were informed about the adaptation capacity of different GI measures, their preferences shifted towards the most effective options. There was no information effect, however, on people's WTP for GI, which was mostly related to income and ethnicity. Our study shows that economic valuation alone would miss nuances that socio-cultural valuation as applied in this paper can reveal. The method revealed preferences for particular adaptation designs, and assists in detecting why policy for climate adaptation may be hampered. Understanding people's views on climate impacts and adaptation options is crucial for prioritizing effective policy responses in the face of climate change. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
