Inequalities of urban green space area and ecosystem services along urban center-edge gradients

Yi Chen et al.

Summary: Rising inequality poses a threat to human well-being. Urban green spaces, as an important type of green infrastructure, provide ecosystem services and contribute to human health. The inequalities of per capita urban green space area and ecosystem services are critical environmental justice and public health issues, and require comprehensive evaluations considering multiple indicators.

Equally green? Understanding the distribution of urban green infrastructure across student demographics in four public school districts in North Carolina, USA

Zhenzhen Zhang et al.

Summary: Green infrastructure is crucial for health, well-being, and sustainability in urban areas. However, its distribution is often uneven, leading to unequal access for low-income residents and underserved racial/ethnic communities. This study found that while green infrastructure was distributed more equitably in schoolyards, it was still less prevalent compared to surrounding neighborhoods. There is an opportunity for school districts to expand green infrastructure in schoolyards to provide more ecosystem services for all students.

Landscape service flow dynamics in the metropolitan area of Cordoba (Argentina)

Maria Victoria Marinelli et al.

Summary: Human decisions, policies, and management strategies have a significant impact on landscape patterns in metropolitan areas, particularly through land-use/land-cover changes and landscape service flow. The research analyzes LULC dynamics, the effect of change on landscape composition and configuration, and the flow of landscape services to identify hot-spots of service provision. Valuing where landscape service hot-spots are located helps managers identify suitable policies to preserve them and enhance landscape integrity, functionality, and resilience.

Assessing urban ecosystem services provided by green infrastructure: Golf courses in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area

Eric Lonsdorf et al.

Summary: With over half of the world's population living in urban areas, the potential for people to benefit from ecosystem services is mainly concentrated in cities. However, there is still a lack of a straightforward and replicable method to quantify multiple urban ecosystem services, leading to the undervaluation of nature in urban planning decisions. Through a study in Minnesota, USA, a replicable framework was developed to assess changes in urban ecosystem services and found that golf courses provide an intermediate amount of services compared to other land use options. This approach could be applied to other cities to help integrate the value of nature into urban planning.
