A performance-based planning approach integrating supply and demand of urban ecosystem services

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed and tested an innovative performance-based planning approach built around the assessment of ecosystem service supply and demand, which moves from the overall objective of enhancing the provision of relevant ecosystem services in the city of Trento, Italy, to a performance assessment aimed at limiting the negative impact on the current ecosystem services supply and promoting the integration of ecosystem-based actions.

Spatial correlations among ecosystem services and their socio-ecological driving factors: A case study in the city belt along the Yellow River in Ningxia, China

TL;DR: Using the city belt along the Yellow River in Ningxia, northwestern China, as a case study, this article quantified the spatial distribution of six ecosystem services (ESs) (food production, carbon sequestration, carbon storage, nutrient retention, sand fixation and recreational opportunity), analyzed the synergy and trade-off relations among them through correlation analysis, classified ES bundles through a self-organizing map method (SOM), explored the impacts of socio-ecological factors on the ESs through Ordinary Least Square regression (OLS) and Geo-detector analysis,
