Zusammenfassung: | "It's time to think differently about cities and nature. Understanding how to better connect our cities with the benefits nature provides will be increasingly important as people migrate to cities and flourish in them. All this urban growth, along with challenges of adapting to climate change, will require a new approach to infrastructure if we're going to be successful. Yet guidance on how to plan and implement projects to protect or restore natural infrastructure is often hard to come by. With Conservation for Cities, Robert McDonald offers a comprehensive framework for maintaining and strengthening the supporting bonds between cities and nature through innovative infrastructure projects. After presenting a broad approach to incorporating natural infrastructure priorities into urban planning, he focuses each following chapter on a specific ecosystem service. He describes a wide variety of benefits, and helps practitioners answer fundamental questions: What are the best ecosystem services to enhance in a particular city or neighborhood? How might planners best combine green and grey infrastructure to solve problems facing a city? What are the regulatory and policy tools that can help fund and implement projects? Finally, McDonald explains how to develop a cost-effective mix of grey and green infrastructure and offers targeted advice on quantifying the benefits."--Publisher description. |

Understanding how to better connect our cities with the benefits nature provides will be increasingly important as people migrate to cities and flourish in them. All this urban growth, along with challenges of adapting to climate change, will require a new approach to infrastructure if we're going to be successful. Yet guidance on how to plan and implement projects to protect or restore natural infrastructure is often hard to come by. With Conservation for Cities, Robert McDonald offers a comprehensive framework for maintaining and strengthening the supporting bonds between cities and nature through innovative infrastructure projects. After presenting a broad approach to incorporating natural infrastructure priorities into urban planning, he focuses each following chapter on a specific ecosystem service. He describes a wide variety of benefits, and helps practitioners answer fundamental questions: What are the best ecosystem services to enhance in a particular city or neighborhood? How might planners best combine green and grey infrastructure to solve problems facing a city? What are the regulatory and policy tools that can help fund and implement projects? Finally, McDonald explains how to develop a cost-effective mix of grey and green infrastructure and offers targeted advice on quantifying the benefits."--Publisher description.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="t">Nature in an urban world --</subfield><subfield code="t">Figuring out what matters --</subfield><subfield code="t">Drinking water protection --</subfield><subfield code="t">Stormwater --</subfield><subfield code="t">Floodwater --</subfield><subfield code="t">Coastal protection --</subfield><subfield code="t">Shade --</subfield><subfield code="t">Air purification --</subfield><subfield code="t">Aesthetic value --</subfield><subfield code="t">Recreation value and physical health --</subfield><subfield code="t">Parks and mental health --</subfield><subfield code="t">The value of biodiversity in cities --</subfield><subfield code="t">Putting it all together.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">City planning</subfield><subfield code="x">Environmental aspects.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Environmental protection</subfield><subfield code="x">Planning.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008006893</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Urban ecology (Sociology)</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh88004757</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Sustainable development.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh92005743</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Écologie urbaine.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Développement durable.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">urban environments.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">sustainable development.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">The environment.</subfield><subfield code="2">bicssc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">BUSINESS & ECONOMICS</subfield><subfield code="x">Development</subfield><subfield code="x">Sustainable Development.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Environmental protection</subfield><subfield code="x">Planning</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">City planning</subfield><subfield code="x">Environmental aspects</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sustainable development</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Urban ecology (Sociology)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Conservation for cities (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCG8CQkGFjV33VgDYWctPKm</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Printed edition:</subfield><subfield code="z">9781597266444</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="z">9781610915212</subfield><subfield code="z">9781610915229</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2014958640</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)896601392</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1019268</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="l">CBO01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1019268</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH29060685</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

Washington, DC : Island Press, [2015] 1 online resource (268 pages) : illustrations, maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier text file PDF rda Online resource; title from e-book title screen (EbscoHost platform, viewed June 29, 2016). Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-258) and index. "It's time to think differently about cities and nature. Understanding how to better connect our cities with the benefits nature provides will be increasingly important as people migrate to cities and flourish in them. All this urban growth, along with challenges of adapting to climate change, will require a new approach to infrastructure if we're going to be successful. Yet guidance on how to plan and implement projects to protect or restore natural infrastructure is often hard to come by. With Conservation for Cities, Robert McDonald offers a comprehensive framework for maintaining and strengthening the supporting bonds between cities and nature through innovative infrastructure projects. After presenting a broad approach to incorporating natural infrastructure priorities into urban planning, he focuses each following chapter on a specific ecosystem service. He describes a wide variety of benefits, and helps practitioners answer fundamental questions: What are the best ecosystem services to enhance in a particular city or neighborhood? How might planners best combine green and grey infrastructure to solve problems facing a city? What are the regulatory and policy tools that can help fund and implement projects? Finally, McDonald explains how to develop a cost-effective mix of grey and green infrastructure and offers targeted advice on quantifying the benefits."--Publisher description.
