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.

Benefits of restoring ecosystem services in urban areas
Thomas Elmqvist,Heikki Setälä,Steven N. Handel,S. van der Ploeg,James Aronson,James Aronson,James Nelson Blignaut,Erik Gómez-Baggethun,David J. Nowak,Jakub Kronenberg,R. de Groot +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of an analysis of benefits of ecosystem services in urban areas and show that investing in ecological infrastructure in cities, and the ecological restoration and rehabilitation of ecosystems such as rivers, lakes, and woodlands occurring in urban area, may not only be ecologically and socially desirable, but also quite often, economically advantageous, even based on the most traditional economic approaches.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reflect on the current debate of the social effects of greening using selected examples and discuss what trade-offs between social and ecological developments in cities mean for the future debate on greening cities and a socially balanced and inclusive way of developing our cities for various groups of urban dwellers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesize the growing body of literature on ecosystem services relationships and identify the following four main study objectives: identification and characterization of co-occurrences of ES, identification of drivers that shape ES relationships, exploration of biophysical constraints of landscapes and limitations to their multifunctionality, and support of environmental planning, management and policy decisions.

Non-native species in urban environments: patterns, processes, impacts and challenges
Mirijam Gaertner,John R. U. Wilson,Marc W. Cadotte,J. Scott MacIvor,Rafael D. Zenni,David M. Richardson +5 more
TL;DR: The papers in this special issue of Biological Invasions show that patterns and processes of urban invasions differ in many ways from invasions in other contexts, and that managing invasive species in cities poses unique and increasingly complex challenges.

Ecosystem services in urban areas
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the ecosystem services generated by ecosystems within the urban area and concluded that the locally generated ecosystem services have a substantial impact on the quality of life in urban areas and should be addressed in land-use planning.
