Socio-Ecological Restoration of Cities Affected by Depopulation and Environmental Issues through the Development of Sustainable Green Infrastructure Managed at Multiple Levels

于2022年4月/2023年3月期间，第1阶段-研究保护已部分实施。研究成果总结如下：-绘制了现有的绿蓝基础设施，如传统的日本花园和神社和寺庙的神圣森林，其位置，类型和连通性。废弃的灰色基础设施位置，它们以前的使用情况及其所有权正在使用家庭Kankosha公司数字地图提供的信息在ArcGIS中进行映射和处理。城市绿色空间生态效益的计算。生物多样性的生产：通过捕捉物种，放置IC记录仪和红外线摄像机等，对五个日本花园进行调查，和2）。气候行动：在五个日本花园中计算了树种的潜在碳封存。为了保护现有的绿色基础设施，将评估绿色公共用地的多层次管理。在与公共行政人员、业主、社区和私营部门的研讨会上，为进行这一评估，采用了渐进式行动研究方法。通过生态旅游、公民科学野生动物调查和联合维护，PAR的规划和行动得以执行。文章“神圣森林和生态系统服务的最新技术和未来研究方向”作者：Alebel Melaku，Juan Pastor Ivars，Mesfin Sahle.出版于：Springer Environmental Management|第6期/2023

During April 2022/ March 2023, Stage 1-CONSERVATION of the research has been partially implemented. The summary of research achievements is as follows:-The mapping of the existing green-blue infrastructure, such as traditional Japanese gardens and sacred forests of shrines and temples, with its locations, typologies, and connectivity has been done.-The abandoned gray infrastructure locations, their previous use, and their ownership are being mapped and processed in ArcGIS using the information provided by household Kankosha company digital maps.-The calculation of urban green spaces' ecological benefits of 1). Production of biodiversity: surveying five Japanese gardens by capturing species, placing IC recorders and infra-red cameras, etc., and 2). Climate action: potential carbon sequestration by tree species has been calculated in five Japanese gardens.-For conserving existing green infrastructure, multi-level management of green commons will be assessed. The Participatory Action Research (PAR) method has been used in workshops with public administrators, owners, communities, and the private sector for this assessment. The planning and acting of the PAR have been executed through ecotourism, citizen science wildlife survey, and joint maintenance.The article "The state-of-the-art and future research directions on sacred forests and ecosystem services" Authors: Alebel Melaku, Juan Pastor Ivars, Mesfin Sahle.
