Functional Biodiversity for Urban Planning
The measure of access to urban green space (UGS) informs planning and expectations for implementation, leading to suggested strategies for optimising UGS integration to urban planning to counteract sprawl developments. The article studies the meaning of access to UGS and the importance of UGS type, selection and configuration for urban planning. A literature review guided by the refined wilding (RW) concept analyses common uses and understandings…
Refined Wilding for Functional Biodiversity in Urban Landscapes
Optimising existing knowledge sets and encouraging the integration of interdisciplinary study findings can facilitate the advanced functions of biodiversity required for sustainable urban landscapes. Urban Green Spaces (UGS) can reach across an urban landscape, including indoor environments. The existing and traditional knowledge sets and practices for urban development and greening provide extensive and pertinent guidance; they are however varia…
Ecological sensitivity within human realities concept for improved functional biodiversity outcomes in agricultural systems and landscapes
Sustainable agricultural landscapes seek to improve environmental, societal and economic outcomes locally and internationally. They depend on functionally biodiverse agricultural systems, i.e., systems that include diversity in plants and/or crops and maintain productive function. These systems are variably defined and are not adequately or consistently represented or ensured across agricultural landscapes. The variability results in inconsistent…
Variance in Approach Toward a ‘Sustainable’ Coffee Industry in Costa Rica
Dr. Melissa Vogt considers the influence of Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade in coffee farming communities of Costa Rica from 2009-2019. Sustainability certifications schemes are working amongst a range of sustainability efforts, unique by their intra market location. The intentions of each certification scheme must be clarified prior to evaluation and their influence considered amongst contextually specific historic and contemporary considerati…
