“…The results of the ES village comparisons revealed that hilly villages and gully villages had significantly greater preferences for most provisioning services than river villages did, which is similar to many ES studies on rural-urban differences (Aguado et al, 2018;Seda Arslan et al, 2021), for example, crops, firewood, and fodder. The importance of fruits differed significantly in all three types of villages, mainly due to farmers' biased understanding of the importance of fruits (Liu et al, 2022).…”

Introduction: Different land use patterns affect access to ecosystem services as well as differences in farmers’ well-being. Methods: The Loess Plateau, which has a fragile ecological environment, was chosen as the study region. On the one hand, information on the importance and accessibility of ESs, as well as the subjective and objective well-being of farmers, was obtained through semistructured interviews and questionnaires. On the other hand, regional differences for the impact of ESs on the well-being of farmers were explored based on a structural equation model.Results: The results indicated that the impact of ESs on farmers’ well-being was crucial for all three village types, but the extent of the impact varied, and the key ESs varied across villages. For hilly villages and gully villages, crops and firewood were the two common ES types that were important. However, water conservation was the key ES type for farmers in hilly villages, and pest control was the key ES type for farmers in gully villages. Fruits, water conservation and recreation were the key ES types in the river villages.Discussion: A focus on the regional differences for the impacts of ESs on farmers’ well-being is meaningful for policy practice. We can contribute to farmers’ well-being by optimising land use allocation and land ecological control to improve their ES access in different regions, which is effective in differentiating and enhancing the sustainability of different regions.

Na podstawie prac szczegółowych i zestawień dotyczących wielu miast z całego świata (Elmqvist et al, 2013) powstało kilka syntez (Haase et al, 2014;Arslan et al, 2021;Dell'Ovo i Oppio, 2021;Russo i Cirella, 2021), w których wskazywano na ograniczenia dotychczasowych podejść, w tym w szczególności na brak ujednoliconej metodyki badań. Podkreślano również, że istniejące wskaźniki mają ograniczoną użyteczność dla planowania i zarządzania miejskiego ze względu na to, że są to głównie wskaźniki zastępcze, których związek z poziomem określonej usługi nie zawsze jest jednoznaczny (La Rosa et al, 2016).…”

The concept of ecosystem services can contribute to improving the quality of life in cities, but it has to be operationalized before being implemented in spatial planning. The study aim is to present methodological solutions to assess and map urban ecosystem services on a nationwide scale, including methods for constructing and characterizing indicators. The selected examples cover all three CICES sections: provisioning, regulating and cultural, as well as the three most frequently assessed aspects of services: potential, use and unmet demand. Sample indicators were calculated for all 20 functional urban areas with the metropolitan status in Poland: as a whole and broken down into city core and commuting zone. The results show, among others, that the metropolitan area of Lublin has the highest potential for food production. In turn, the use of trees for air purification is the lowest in Rzeszów. Furthermore, the unmet demand for nature-based recreation is seven times higher in Częstochowa than in Olsztyn. Significant differences in the values of indicators show that nationwide mapping and assessing urban ecosystem services can be of great value when comparing urban centers and the quality of life of their inhabitants, as well as when drawing up urban development strategies.
