OpenNESS Synthesis paper: Human well-being
Human well-being (HWB) is a central component of the ecosystem services (ES) framework and in fact its major endpoint in terms of what the ES concept aims at. The question of what is meant by, and what specifically constitutes, HWB, is of major importance in any application of the ES concept.
Climate mitigation potential of large-scale nature restoration in Europe
This report, produced by the IEEP and commissioned by the WWF, explores the climate mitigation potential of restoring the habitats protected under the EU Habitats Directive. As part of this, the feasibility of ranking these habitats based on the climate mitigation benefits of their restoration is
Evaluating the impact of nature-based solutions: A summary for policy makers
Assessing the impacts of nature-based solutions is essential to understand their effectiveness in addressing current interrelated societal challenges. Robust impact evaluation supports practitioners to understand and document the outcomes of nature-based solutions, resulting in improved quality,

Az esővízhasznosítás és szürkevíz újrahasznosítás lehetőségei a klímaváltozás hatásainak csökkentésében
A klímaváltozás okozta hidrogeológiai kockázatok miatt az európai városok egyre gyakrabban szembesülnek a kapcsolódó problémákkal, akár hirtelen áradások vagy éppen a vízhiány képében. A Körforgásos Városi Vízgazdálkodás projekt (CWC) célja hogy segítse a városokat az elavult városi infrastruktúra
Virtual Landscape Theatre
The Virtual Landscape Theatre (VLT) is a mobile curved screen projection facility, in which people can be 'immersed' in computer models of their environment to explore landscapes of the past, present and future. This facility is the first mobile unit of its kind in the UK, and is used for
GIZ ValuES - Method Profile: Assessing flood prevention potential of wetlands
Wetlands can absorb excess water in cases of river flooding. This method can be used to estimate the retention capacity of wetlands for flood mitigation and thereby protecting downstream inhabitants. For this, the impact of water detention on peak flows is considered, as well as the extent and
TELEPÜLÉSI KLÍMAADAPTÁCIÓ: Útmutató a klímaváltozáshoz való alkalmazkodáshoz

Gaps and opportunities to sustainable urban development through nature-based solutions Policy Brief
The multifunctional character of nature-based solutions (NbS) enables them to provide responses to both social and environmental challenges. Analysis has shown that there is significant potential for NbS to help achieve sustainable urban development objectives. Nonetheless, challenges for
A Horizont 2020 kutatási projektjei TAM projektjei
A természetalapú megoldásokat (TAM) a természet inspirálja és támogatja. Ezek a megoldások költséghatékonyak, egyszerre nyújtanak környezeti, társadalmi és gazdasági előnyöket, és segítik a külső hatásokhoz való sikeres alkalmazkodás. A természetalapú megoldások a helyi adottságokhoz illeszkedő,
Collaborative decision-analytic framework to maximize resilience of tidal marshes to climate change
The article describes an application of collaborative decision analysis with a diverse team of stakeholders who preserve, manage, or restore tidal marshes across the San Francisco Bay estuary, USA, as a case study. A Bayesian decision network revealed that a strategy considering sea-level rise and
NetworkNature Knowledge Brief
The brief provides an overview of the NbS knowledge gaps resulting from an analysis conducted by NetworkNature of a large number of publications, online consultations and dialogues with stakeholders. To reflect the potential of NbS from an environmental, economic and societal perspective, this
Barriers and Enablers for Scaling NbS to the Landscape Level [Socio-Ecological Resilience: ‘Weaving’ to scale Nature-based Solutions (Master Thesis)]
Thus far, little research has been conducted on barriers and enablers for scaling NbS to the landscape level. In collaboration with the Bioregional Weaving Labs collective (aiming to restore, protect, and regenerate at least one million hectares of Europe’s land and sea by 2030), a student research
Local Ecological Footprinting Tool (LEFT)
LEFT presents a simple yet effective method for mapping ecological important landscapes beyond protected areas. The method uses existing globally available web-based databases and models to provide an ecological score based on five key ecological features (biodiversity, fragmentation, threat,
