Informing implementation of Nature-based Solutions in marine and coastal enviro...
Casal, Gema; Fonseca, Catarina; Allegri, Elena; Bianconi, Angelica; Boyd, Emily; CORNET, Cindy; Juan, Silvia; Córdova, Fabiola; Furlan, ElisaABSTRACT: Interconnected societal challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss and food security demand immediate and coordinated action across local to global scales, guided by coherent policies and management mechanisms. Reflecting on the critical need to address societal challenges, Nature-based Solutions in marine and coastal environments, known as blue NBS, have emerged as an important part of the ...
Framing adaptive capacity of coastal communities: A review of the role of scien...
Espinoza Córdova, Fabiola; Krause, Torsten; Furlan, Elisa; Allegri, Elena; O'Leary, Bethan C.; Degia, Karima; Trégarot, Ewan; Cornet, Cindy C.In the current context of climate and anthropogenic change, assessing the adaptive capacity of coastal communities, i.e., their ability to adapt, navigate and/or recover from the impacts of change is key in coastal management and decision-making processes. Framing in adaptive capacity assessments (i.e., what is highlighted) influences how coastal communities’ adaptive capacity is perceived and understood, carry...
A conceptual framework to help choose appropriate blue nature-based solutions
Pérez, Géraldine; O'Leary, Bethan C; Allegri, Elena; Casal, Gema; Cornet, Cindy C.; de Juan, Silvia; Failler, Pierre; Fredriksen, SteinBiodiversity loss and climate change have severely impacted ecosystems and livelihoods worldwide, compromising access to food and water, increasing disaster risk, and affecting human health globally. Nature-based Solutions (NbS) have gained interest in addressing these global societal challenges. Although much effort has been directed to NbS in urban and terrestrial environments, the implementation of NbS in ma...
