Expanding urban life and urbanizing people's interactions have drastically increased and resulted in more stressful circumstances. Unfortunately, the role of nature and nature-based design in our urban societies as an alternative ...

With nature-based offsets emerging as a core strategy for meeting near-term climate targets, it is essential they deliver real and verifiable mitigation gains. However, the interventions that generate can have unintended effects cause carbon leakage ultimately reduce mitigation. Although "old news" various anti-leakage measures been considered, there little evidence current practices to address...

Large-scale nature-based solutions (NBS) contribute to the change in large-scale landscapes and ecosystems for which continuous monitoring activities would be necessary reflect constantly changing environment. To fill existing gap design-making process of implementing NBS, a framework that incorporates landscape dynamics into design NBS is expedient beneficial. This research addresses above kno...
