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

在2022年4月至2023年3月期间，研究的第一阶段保护已经部分实施。研究成果总结如下：-对现有的绿蓝基础设施，如日本传统园林、神社和寺庙的神圣森林，进行了位置、类型学和连通性的映射。-使用家庭Kankosha公司数字地图提供的信息，在ArcGIS中绘制和处理废弃的灰色基础设施位置，其以前的用途和所有权。——城市绿地生态效益的计算生物多样性的生产：通过捕捉物种，放置IC记录仪和红外摄像机等对五个日本花园进行调查；气候行动：在日本的五个花园中计算了树种的潜在碳固存能力。-为保育现有的绿色基础设施，我们会评估绿色公地的多层次管理。参与行动研究（PAR）方法已在与公共行政人员、业主、社区和私营部门的讲习班上用于这项评估。保护区的规划和实施是通过生态旅游、公民科学野生动物调查和联合维护来实施的。文章“圣林和生态系统服务的现状和未来研究方向”作者：Alebel Melaku， Juan Pastor Ivars, Mesfin Sahle。已发表于：施普林格Environmental Management | Issue 6/2023

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.
