“…Second, some studies investigated the preferences using a community perspective, typically by asking what benefits are the most important for a neighborhood (e.g., Camps‐Calvet et al, 2016; Elderbrock et al, 2020; Menconi et al, 2020), a community (e.g., Mao et al, 2020; Park, 2017), or a particular social group of people such as seniors (Artmann et al, 2017) or citizens from a specific area (e.g., Alves et al, 2018; Ncube & Arthur, 2021). Third, some studies have used a broader society or generally specified perspective, eliciting preferences by asking what benefits are the most important for society (e.g., Casado‐Arzuaga et al, 2013; Herivaux & Le Coent, 2021; Rodríguez‐Morales et al, 2020) or what ES are the most important without further specification (e.g., Badura et al, 2021; Palomo et al, 2013; Wei et al, 2020; Zhang et al, 2020). This individual, community, and society typology of well‐being is defined here as these different perspectives have not been explicitly defined by previous studies.…”

Ecosystem services (ES) provided by nature-based solutions (NBS) have been examined using various data collection techniques and preference elicitation methods to understand what ES are important to human well-being. This article provides a systematic review of 153 scientific publications, with a focus on data collection techniques and perspectives of well-being used when eliciting preferences toward multiple ES provided by NBS. ES provided by urban parks,urban trees, and community gardens are the most commonly examined; however, generally specified NBS such as "green spaces" or "green infrastructure" prevail. The review further shows that the questionnaire surveys is the dominant technique for bringing evidence about the most preferred ES, followed by semi-structured interviews and workshops. Only a limited number of studies use revealed or stated preference methods as a part of data collection efforts such as a choice experiment or contingent valuation. Additionally, the review defines three different perspectives of well-being considered but rarely discussed in existing studies: individual; community; and society well-being perspectives. As the concept of well-being is hardly discussed in NBS literature and still depends on a large degree of subjectivity, this review highlights the need for future research that looks more deeply at individual, community, and social well-being, which is influenced differently by the implementation of NBS.

“…The role of biodiversity and its positive effects on the urban environment is another important point in favor of creating new green spaces. Studies show that biodiversity is perceived and valued by residents [38]. In connection with this, there are not only opportunities for people to perceive nature and an improvement in well-being, but also improve climate change adaptation in urban environments [39].…”

“…Culture can also influence the interest in participation or engagement and sense of community [40], [41] and ownership of public space [42]. Recent research confirms this additional requirement focusing on participation [38], just distribution [43], a right to participate in design processes and possibilities to take action. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, these social issues have also been gaining prominence and been increasingly included in discussions on what NBS can add to urban environments [44].…”

“…Finally, we see a need for an integrated research equally considering ecological, economic and social aspects related to NBS. Badura et al [38] used a survey and choice experiment to investigate the preferences and valuation of citizens in the city of Prague. They found that respondents in general support the implementation of NBS, the support was even greater if they already had negative experiences with heat waves, which was reflected in their willingness to pay for NBS.…”

The establishment and improvement of nature-based solutions (NBS) to reduce impacts by climate change and improve air quality are a challenging task for urban planning and management. Despite the great interest and willingness to improve the situation, many concerns and questions arise when planning details for the implementation of NBS and green infrastructure. For example, to what extent can improvements be achieved with regard to microdust? Which green infrastructure brings the greatest particulate reduction or greatest temperature reductions for hot summer days? This paper investigates which NBS can be applied in European cities for which purpose based on current scientific literature. Based on an extended literature review the paper gives an overview and illustrates to what extent implemented NBS currently may contribute to tackling challenges regarding climate change. Against this background the paper gives recommendations for urban planning and development under conditions of climate change.

“…It mainly describes the process of the subject's continuous adaptation and evolution [4] in the stimulus-response model of the environment. At present, concepts of adaptability have been generally recognized [5,6]. Many major scientific programs around the world have adopted adaptability as an important criterion for mankind to cope with climate changes [7].…”

Serving as an effective tool for research on regional sustainable development, adaptive management has become the subject of global climate change and environmental economic research nowadays. Based on the perspective of the adaptability of the composite system, this article decomposes the adaptability into four aspects: sensibility, stability, compatibility and sustainability. We use the pressure-state-impact-response (PSIR) model to construct a Comprehensive Index Evaluation System for the adaptability of the Water-Energy-Food System in the Yangtze River Delta from 2010 to 2019. Our analyses show that: Firstly, the adaptability of the Water-Energy-Food System in the Yangtze River Delta fluctuates greatly, with the lowest value being only 33.35% of the highest value. Secondly, while sensibility shows an “M-shaped” development trend, the stability, sustainability and compatibility of the Water-Energy-Food System in the Yangtze River Delta changes simultaneously, showing a “U-shaped” development trend as a whole. Thirdly, there exists significant spatial differences in the adaptability of the Water-Energy-Food System in the Yangtze River Delta. Zhejiang Province has the highest level of system adaptability, while Anhui Province has the lowest. Based on that, we recommend to strengthen the coordinated management of various departments and natural resources in the Yangtze River Delta and implement strict red lines for resource utilization and environmental protection.
