A quantitative review of relationships between ecosystem services
These are the figures that are published in "A quantitative review of relationships between ecosystem services" in Ecological Indicators in 2016. In this publication, we analysed 67 case studies that studied 476 pairwise ES combinations. The relationships between these pairs of ES were
A catalogue of Nature-Based Solutions for urban resilience
Despite the growing demand for nature-based solutions (NbS) in cities, many people who make planning, financing, and technical decisions for urban resilience building have little knowledge of when and how to build with nature. It creates a need for better guidance, more real-world examples that
Using nature based solutions to foster synergies between biodiversity and climate: Missed chances and new opportunities for a sustainable future
