Low impact development (LID) practices are able to mitigate the detrimental effects of
urbanization and climate change due to their salient design features. LID can restore the …

Green roof is one of the main infrastructures used in Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems
(SUDS). Detailed design and the correct choice of materials to be applied in this type of roof …

The subject of the article concerns vertical urban farms that play an important role in nature-
based solutions and ecosystem services for the city. In the face of a changing climate …

Green roofs are an effective green infrastructure tool to reduce stormwater runoff in cities, but
their considerable weight is a constraint on widespread uptake. Consequently, lightweight …

The capacity of extensive green roofs (EGRs) in runoff reduction and pollutants control
significantly decreased with increasing rainfall intensity. This is attributed to most of EGRs …

Abstract According to the European Research and Innovation Policy Agenda, nature-based
solutions (NBSs) are key technologies to improve the sustainability of urban areas. Among …

Despite the significance of urban landscapes, there are limiting factors like spaces and
water resources to expand them across the world. These limitations necessitate the …

Extreme meteorological and hydrological phenomena, including high air temperatures and
rainstorms, are becoming increasingly dangerous, causing floods and inundations, as well …

The article presented methods of urban development in terms of the application of the
'sponge city'concept, as well as the possibility of introducing different hydro-engineering …

Green roofs are nature-based solutions with multiple benefits for the urban environment, but
they have specific polymeric components in their structure that cause a carbon footprint. This …
