“…It includes adaptive strategies from climate change adaptation and ecological planning in a structured form to support different types of responses in planning at the same time and improve the convertibility and flexibility in planning and practice [9]. Green infrastructure (GI) planning was originally developed as an integrated approach to ecological and conservation planning.…”

In order to build a scientific and reasonable urban park green infrastructure network. Genetic Tabu hybrid algorithm is introduced into the field of urban park green infrastructure network construction, using ENVI5.5, ArcGIS10.2, Conefor2.6, and other software to construct the comprehensive green infrastructure network model and corresponding algorithm of a city park and improve and compare the genetic algorithm and Tabu search algorithm. Firstly, the ecological sensitivity of urban parks was evaluated, and 58 ecological source patches with high ecological value were selected. With the help of GIS platform, 71 potential corridors are simulated and generated by using the minimum cost path model. Then, select the index that can evaluate the importance of source patches in the ecological network to determine the importance ranking of source patches. Finally, according to the principles of clustering and network connectivity, select the ecological source with high patch importance, analyze the potential ecological corridor and current corridor, and combine and screen the factors of green infrastructure network. The results show that a city park green infrastructure network composed of 38 ecological source patches and 19 corridors is finally formed. Genetic algorithm has a potential application prospect in the construction of urban park green infrastructure network. By introducing genetic Tabu hybrid algorithm into the field of urban park green infrastructure network construction, it will change the mode of traditional urban park green infrastructure network construction.

“…Nonetheless, with Australian cities expanding their footprint, natural hazard-related disasters impact larger areas and populations and causes more vulnerability to communities [11][12][13]. In this sense, the adaptability of cities to climate change requires smart infrastructure and urban design that is resilient to natural hazard-related disasters impacts [14][15][16].…”

Detecting Natural Hazard-Related Disaster Impacts with Social Media Analytics: The Case of Australian States and Territories

Natural hazard-related disasters are disruptive events with significant impact on people, communities, buildings, infrastructure, animals, agriculture, and environmental assets. The exponentially increasing anthropogenic activities on the planet have aggregated the climate change and consequently increased the frequency and severity of these natural hazard-related disasters, and consequential damages in cities. The digital technological advancements, such as monitoring systems based on fusion of sensors and machine learning, in early detection, warning and disaster response systems are being implemented as part of the disaster management practice in many countries and presented useful results. Along with these promising technologies, crowdsourced social media disaster big data analytics has also started to be utilized. This study aims to form an understanding of how social media analytics can be utilized to assist government authorities in estimating the damages linked to natural hazard-related disaster impacts on urban centers in the age of climate change. To this end, this study analyzes crowdsourced disaster big data from Twitter users in the testbed case study of Australian states and territories. The methodological approach of this study employs the social media analytics method and conducts sentiment and content analyses of location-based Twitter messages (n = 131,673) from Australia. The study informs authorities on an innovative way to analyze the geographic distribution, occurrence frequency of various disasters and their damages based on the geo-tweets analysis.

Climate change is a global environmental problem. Increasing awareness in our country about climate change, strategies are needed to protect the natural and cultural resources of the cities which are most affected by climate change. Cities depend on natural and cultural ecosystems and their services. Developed as a new and innovative land planning approach that can contribute to mitigating the effects of climate change in cities, green infrastructure plays a role in increasing biodiversity and urban ecosystem services as well as increasing the density of natural systems in cities. In this study, the effects of climate change on urban biodiversity will be mentioned and the effects of climate change on the sustainability of urban ecosystem services will be given. Assessment of possible climate change effects will be interpreted by the framework of green infrastructure and ecosystem services.
