DOI: 10.1007/s10584-019-02557-9
Abstract: Scholars and practitioners are increasingly promoting so-called nature-based approaches for urban climate change adaptation. There is widespread consensus that they both support and require transdisciplinary approaches, notably by involving citizens in the change process and… read more here.
