“…For non‐material NCP, our results support our hypothesis that co‐production was predominantly associated with human and social capital. As we expected, physical capital, such as outdoor equipment, plays a minor role in the co‐production of non‐material NCP, although physical access to routes may be quite important to realise the actual use of non‐material NCP (Crouzat et al, 2022).…”

“…Often, co‐production is a mixture of both physical and cognitive processes. For example, the appreciation of nature's beauty may not only be the result of cognitive or psychological processes inherent in individuals, but also of physical management practices, such as tourism infrastructure (Crouzat et al, 2022; Palomo et al, 2016). Choosing and combining data collection methods that can capture information for both physical and cognitive processes remains a challenge that still needs to be addressed.…”

Nature's contributions to people (NCP) are fundamental for human life (Hill et al., 2021). Since the launch of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (2005), a vast amount of studies on NCP, ecosystem services, and related concepts has been published, mostly focusing on ways to value and map their supply (Schröter et al., 2021).Most of these studies assume that nature generates benefits for people while neglecting the contributions of human activities and other forms of anthropogenic capital to their co-production. Recent literature highlights that NCP are not solely nature-given but mostly co-produced by a combination of both natural and anthropogenic

“…While spontaneous urban plants have the great potential to aid in the restoration of ecosystem services and biodiversity in cities [37], unlike scholars who have recognized the values of spontaneous urban plants, the public has long neglected them for their unappreciated ornamental value and their consistent intrusion into the well-managed green space, regardless of their inherent ability to facilitate community resilience [45][46][47].…”

Traditional urban green spaces offer numerous benefits to the environment and residents, but their high social resource expenditure on exploitation and maintenance makes them insufficient to face the threats of global climate change and the rapid pace of urbanization, further raising numerous other socio-environmental issues. Spontaneous urban plants have a superior ability to mitigate urban environmental crises due to their ability to maintain urban biodiversity and provide ecological benefits with minor cost and effort of maintenance. However, these values are often overshadowed by their stigmatized image and aesthetic characteristics that are not widely appreciated by the general public. To promote the future utilization of spontaneous plants at the community level, this study explores how, from the perspective of individual psychology, aesthetic appreciation of spontaneous plants can serve as a pivotal element in motivating environmental participation, thereby fostering urban resilience. Public psychogeography, with its focus on the emotional and behavioral interactions between individuals and their urban environments, can be instrumental in promoting community climate resilience by enhancing place attachment and inspiring collective action towards sustainable urban living. Through study, the project conducted by Future Green Studio, based in New York City, raised public interest and awareness based on psychogeography theory and presented a way of using social media posts, not only as a reflection of the public’s aesthetic appreciation of spontaneous urban plants but also as a data collection instrument of their geo-location and ecological properties. The result of the social media engagement activities enabled the establishment of a growing interactive digital open database, covering all of New York City. This database succeeded due to its efficient data collection methods, which resulted in more robust stakeholder engagement as compared to conventional community engagement efforts. The research argues that when residents are empowered to document and learn about their environment, they can become active agents in the creation of sustainable, resilient, and aesthetically enriched urban ecosystems. The success of this initiative offers a replicable model for other cities and demonstrates the potential for collaborative efforts in environmental restoration and education.

“…Despite technological advances, using social media data to assess CES demand still has limitations (Ghermandi and Sinclair, 2019;Crouzat et al, 2022;Karasov et al, 2022). Social media primarily concentrates on younger, well-educated, and more-experienced people (Donahue et al, 2018;Erskine et al, 2021).…”

Cultural ecosystem services (CES) based on nature experiences substantially contribute to public health and human well-being. However, CES’s supply-demand methodology remains scarcely explored on the coastal beach, and the demand relating to public preferences has not been sufficiently unveiled in spatial assessment. Here, we selected recreation services as a lens of CES and applied the knowledge of multi-source big data to better reflect public preferences. Point of Interests (POIs) refer to particularly valuable or interesting places. We proposed to integrate POIs and social media data (Weibo check-in) to quantify the demand for beach recreation services (BRS). We also used socio-ecological indicators to quantify the BRS’s supply. The supply-demand balance of BRS was further identified by quadrant analysis and coupling coordination degree. Our methodology was applied to a typical coastal zone, Shenzhen Dapeng New District, in the Greater Bay Area of China. Over 80% of the beaches in the study area exhibited an imbalanced or barely balanced supply-demand of recreation services. We found that POIs density had a significant influence on a balanced supply-demand of BRS. Multi-source big data (POIs and Weibo check-in) provided an efficient, low-cost, and across-scale approach for public preference mapping than traditional questionnaire surveys. The proposed CES’s supply-demand framework can identify coastal beaches with imbalanced recreation and support sustainable coastal management. Coastal beach management prioritizes not only waste prevention and sufficient safety signs but also proper infrastructure development that contribute sustainably to the human well-being of nature experiences.
