Urban Forests and Green Areas as Nature-Based Solutions for Brownfield Redevelopment: A Case Study from Brescia Municipal Area (Italy)

چکیده
Urban areas are experiencing major changes and facing significant sustainability challenges. Many cities undergoing a transition towards post-industrial phase need to consider the regeneration of brownfield sites. Nature-Based Solutions (NBSs) increasingly considered as tools for supporting this promoting sustainable development by delivering multiple ecosystem services (ESs). Although potential NBSs cost-effective enabler urban has been recognized, their implementation faces numerous barriers. The effective assessment benefits delivered is existing literature one them. In order contribute filling knowledge gap, we analyzed two alternative NBS-based intervention scenarios—i.e., (1) an forest (2) meadows with sparse trees—for redevelopment area within municipality Brescia (Northern Italy). Nine ESs were assessed both in biophysical economic terms via combination modeling (InVEST, i-Tree ESTIMAP) traditional estimation methods. results show that scenarios improve ES stock flow compared baseline, ensuring annual flows ranging between 140,000 360,000 EUR/year. Scenario 1 shows higher values when single considered, while scenario 2 total values, it also accounts phytoremediation capacity not under first scenario. All all, regulating represent bulk estimated ESs, thus highlighting proposed improving resilience. valuation exercise presented paper example how research practice can be integrated inform management activities, provide inputs future decision making planning regarding developments.
