TL;DR: The synthesis of modelling methods can facilitate their selection that can maximise opportunities and refute the current political hesitation of NBS deployment compared with grey solutions for HMR management but also for the provision of a wide range of social and economic co-benefits.

Impact of best management practices on sustainable crop production and climate resilience in smallholder farming systems of South Asia
K. H. Anantha,Kaushal K. Garg,Jennie Barron,Sreenath Dixit,A. Venkataradha,Ramesh Singh,Anthony M. Whitbread +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesize the performance of BMPs and the existing data gap by reviewing 108 published studies from the Indian subcontinent which capture a diverse range of rainfall and cropping systems.

Understanding attitudes towards the adoption of nature-based solutions and policy priorities shaped by stakeholders’ awareness of climate change
Vera Ferreira,Ana Paula Barreira,Patrícia Susana Lopes Guerrilha Santos Pinto,Thomas Panagopoulos +3 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors assess the coherence of the policies emerging from stakeholders' perceptions of urban climate challenges and their preferred nature-based solutions to tackle them, in which stakeholders may make decisions that form a coherent policy in which acknowledgment of climate change effects interconnects with related priority interventions, suitable NBS and their benefits.

Urban climate resilience through hybrid infrastructure
Erik Andersson,Nancy B. Grimm,Joshua A. Lewis,Charles L. Redman,Stephan Barthel,Johan Colding,Thomas Elmqvist +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors ask what new opportunities hybrid infrastructure offers for building different layers of resilience critical for dealing with increased variation in the frequency, magnitude and different phases of climate-related disturbances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracing hotspots of soil erosion in high mountain environments: how forensic science based on plant eDNA can lead the way. An opinion
TL;DR: In this paper , the relevance of environmental DNA (eDNA) that originates from plant litter and fixes onto fine soil particles, as a targeted sediment fingerprinting method sensitive to vegetation that could potentially allow the identification of erosion hotspots and their relative importance from sedimentary deposits.

Contemporary Guidance for Stated Preference Studies
Robert J. Johnston,Kevin J. Boyle,Wiktor L. Adamowicz,Jeffrey Bennett,Roy Brouwer,Trudy Ann Cameron,W. Michael Hanemann,Nick Hanley,Mandy Ryan,Riccardo Scarpa,Roger Tourangeau,Christian A. Vossler +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for stated preference studies that are more comprehensive than those of the original National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Blue Ribbon Panel on contingent valuation, and reflect the two decades of research since that time.

Nature-based solutions to climate change mitigation and adaptation in urban areas: perspectives on indicators, knowledge gaps, barriers, and opportunities for action
Nadja Kabisch,Niki Frantzeskaki,Stephan Pauleit,Sandra Naumann,McKenna Davis,Martina Artmann,Dagmar Haase,Sonja Knapp,Horst Korn,Jutta Stadler,Karin Zaunberger,Aletta Bonn +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the various contexts in which nature-based solutions are relevant for climate mitigation and adaptation in urban areas, identify indicators for assessing the effectiveness of naturebased solutions and related knowledge gaps, and explore existing barriers and potential opportunities for increasing the scale and effectiveness of Nature-based solution implementation.
