In order to build a scientific and reasonable urban park green infrastructure network. Genetic Tabu hybrid algorithm is introduced into the field of urban park green infrastructure network construction, using ENVI5.5, ArcGIS10.2, Conefor2.6, and other software to construct the comprehensive green infrastructure network model and corresponding algorithm of a city park and improve and compare the genetic algorithm and Tabu search algorithm. Firstly, the ecological sensitivity of urban parks was evaluated, and 58 ecological source patches with high ecological value were selected. With the help of GIS platform, 71 potential corridors are simulated and generated by using the minimum cost path model. Then, select the index that can evaluate the importance of source patches in the ecological network to determine the importance ranking of source patches. Finally, according to the principles of clustering and network connectivity, select the ecological source with high patch importance, analyze the potential ecological corridor and current corridor, and combine and screen the factors of green infrastructure network. The results show that a city park green infrastructure network composed of 38 ecological source patches and 19 corridors is finally formed. Genetic algorithm has a potential application prospect in the construction of urban park green infrastructure network. By introducing genetic Tabu hybrid algorithm into the field of urban park green infrastructure network construction, it will change the mode of traditional urban park green infrastructure network construction.

“…Such processes can encourage successful collaboration between stakeholders beyond the time‐scale of the project, therefore promoting social learning (Jager et al, 2020), and long‐term community engagement and ownership of projects (Mostert et al, 2008). The use and development of bespoke tools for data examination and decision making indicates that a range of additional support and skills can be utilised when working in collaboration with academic researchers (#43 Bush et al, 2021; #42 Campbell‐Arvai & Lindquist, 2021; #12 Delevaux et al, 2018; #21 Lopes & Videira, 2019). However, in some cases, the development of elaborate tools that do not offer transferability could form some barriers to involvement for stakeholders.…”

Using natural capital and ecosystem services to facilitate participatory environmental decision making: Results from a systematic map

et al. 2022

The rights all people have for involvement in environmental decision making has long been established yet collaborative resource management has had mixed success. Natural capital; the renewable and non‐renewable natural assets that benefit societies, and the flow of ecosystem services these assets provide, are increasingly promoted as approaches that ensure consideration of the environment in decision making. Natural capital and ecosystem services concepts can facilitate participation in decision making by explicitly describing the role of the environment in sustaining society. Increased promotion of these approaches requires consideration on how best to involve stakeholders, those involved and affected by a decision, in the process. We conducted a systematic search to identify where stakeholders have participated in natural capital, ecosystem services and nature’s contributions to people decision making, creating a systematic map of 56 case studies. While many papers discussing stakeholders and these concepts were found, few actively engaged stakeholders in a decision‐making process that used the concepts and therefore were included in the map. Where stakeholders were involved, engagement methods included focus group discussion, stakeholder negotiation and scenario development, as well as ecosystem service ranking and mapping. Ranking for prioritisation of ecosystem services was common, with a bias towards using services with a direct tangible economic benefit; food production and tourism, are both prominent examples. A limited number of case studies performed robust participatory methods evaluations, offering little indication of how best to use natural capital or ecosystem services in participatory approaches. Therefore, the work highlights need for greater evaluation of participatory processes involving natural capital to ensure stakeholder engagement is efficient, productive and useful to all involved.

“…They are also more likely to participate economically and coproduce outcomes such as ecotourism opportunities [59,61]. Conservationists and planners also have a responsibility to retain social access to these environments, since the phenomena of 'green gentrification' and elitist enclaves further entrench existing inequalities and access restrictions [59,[62][63][64][65][66].…”

Towards a More-than-Human Approach to Smart and Sustainable Urban Development: Designing for Multispecies Justice

2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The term ‘sustainability’ has become an overused umbrella term that encompasses a range of climate actions and environmental infrastructure investments; however, there is still an urgent need for transformative reform work. Scholars of urban studies have made compelling cases for a more-than-human conceptualisation of urban and environmental planning and also share a common interest in translating theory into practical approaches and implications that recognise (i) our ecological entanglements with planetary systems and (ii) the urgent need for multispecies justice in the reconceptualisation of genuinely sustainable cities. More-than-human sensibility draws on a range of disciplines and encompasses conventional and non-conventional research methods and design approaches. In this article, we offer a horizon scan type of review of key posthuman and more-than-human literature sources at the intersection of urban studies and environmental humanities. The aim of this review is to (i) contribute to the emerging discourse that is starting to operationalise a more-than-human approach to smart and sustainable urban development, and; (ii) to articulate a nascent framework for more-than-human spatial planning policy and practice.
