Technical academia goes back to school
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the relationship between academia and society focusing on how technical universities perform Third Mission (TM) to promote knowledge outside the academic environment producing multiple benefits. Design/methodology/approach This investigation is performed through the conceptual approach. The theoretical background of the TM is explored through scientific literature review. It analyses a selected pool of exper…
Valuing the contribution of green roofs to pluvial flood risk mitigation
Cities in the 21st century face increasing pressures from population growth, urban sprawl, and emissions, while flood-related challenges exacerbated by climate change strongly intensify their vulnerabilities. Consequently, urban global change is becoming an urgent necessity globally. Nature-based solutions (NBS) have gained increasing attention as valuable sources of ecosystem services, which can also address these multiple societal challenges. G…
Integrating cultural ecosystem services in wildfire risk assessment
The impact of natural disturbances such as wildfires on ecosystem services and local communities is significant. Conventional assessments of wildfire risks often overlook the potential loss of ecosystem services, particularly cultural ones (CES). This study presents a methodology for integrating CES into wildfire risk assessment, combining expert CES participatory mapping with standard procedures based on fire hazard and vulnerability modelling. …
Integrating Biophysical and Economic Assessment
Over the last decade, the potential of nature-based solutions (NBS) has been recognized to support climate change adaptation, by promoting sustainable urban planning. Nevertheless, a wider uptake of such solutions in urban areas faces different challenges and barriers. A comprehensive mapping of available NBS impact assessment methods could help to accelerate this process. There is, however, a lack of comprehensive systematization of economic ana…
The combined use of Spatial Multicriteria Evaluation and stakeholders analysis for supporting the ecological planning of a river basin
An integrated framework to assess complex cultural and natural heritage systems with Multi-Attribute Value Theory
Exploring the environmental value of ecosystem services for a river basin through a spatial multicriteria analysis
