“…Por un lado, el incremento de la calidad ambiental en el espacio urbanizado, actuando estos sistemas como un recurso estratégico para la mejora de la calidad del aire (Manes et al, 2014, Fusaro et al, 2015Kim et al, 2015), la gestión sostenible y eficiente de los procesos hidrológicos (Lewellyn et al, 2016) o la mitigación de la isla de calor urbano (Farrugia et al, 2013). En segundo lugar, y desde una perspectiva más global, la infraestructura verde se convertiría en un factor estratégico para dotar a las ciudades de una mayor resiliencia, sobre todo a través de su contribución a la adaptación y la lucha contra el cambio climático (Momm-Schult et al, 2013) y de su papel en relación a la seguridad alimentaria y la producción de alimentos (Magoni y Colucci, 2015). Por último, la infraestructura verde metropolitana atiende también a la dimensión social y económica de la sostenibilidad, aportando beneficios intangibles de orden estético, cultural y recreativo (Chiesura, Boletín de la Asociación de Geógrafos Españoles N.º 74 -2017 2004), contribuyendo a un ambiente más saludable para los ciudadanos (Tzoulas et al, 2007) y proporcionando funciones de carácter económico (Comisión Europea, 2013)vinculadas a la incorporación de espacios dedicados a la producción primaria y a la puesta en valor del patrimonio territorial local.…”

<p>La infraestructura verde se está asentando en los últimos años como una herramienta<br />clave para la planificación del espacio libre metropolitano desde una perspectiva estratégica<br />y multifuncional. Ante la gran diversidad de aproximaciones teóricas y aplicadas a este concepto que coexisten en la actualidad, el presente trabajo plantea como objetivos abordar una revisión crítica del mismo y explorar sus posibilidades de implementación a través la planificación territorial a escala metropolitana, para lo cual se realiza un análisis comparado de los planes de Barcelona, Bilbao y Sevilla.</p>

“…Peri-urban areas present opportunities to shape ecological networks and to foster productive economic activity [18]. For example, Magoni et al [68] describe how innovative integrated planning has addressed multifunctionality in peri-urban areas by bringing together food production with environmental and landscape planning.…”

Highly dynamic peri-urban areas, particularly in the Global South, face many challenges including a lack of infrastructure, ownership conflicts, land degradation, and sustainable food production. This study aims to assess spatial land use characteristics and processes in peri-urban areas using the case of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. A mixed-method approach was applied, consisting of expert interviews and spatial data analysis, on a local scale along an urban–rural gradient. Expert interviews were conducted during a field study and analyzed regarding the characteristics and processes of peri-urban land development. A GIS-based analysis of land use patterns was applied using satellite imagery and Open Street Map data to identify a number of variables, such as building density and proximity to environmental features. Results show specific patterns of land use indicators, which can be decreasing (e.g., house density), increasing (e.g., tree coverage), static (e.g., house size), or randomly distributed (e.g., distance to river), along a peri-urban gradient. Key findings identify lack of service structures and access to public transport as major challenges for the population of peri-urban areas. The combination of qualitative expert interviews and metrics-based quantitative spatial pattern analysis contributes to improved understanding of the patterns and processes in peri-urban land use changes.

“…It is to be noted that cultivating land in rural-urban fringe areas, characterised by low landscape quality (such as the low-value zone), can contribute to achieving sustainable territorial development. In fact, peri-urban agriculture supports the creation of more sustainable and resilient cities and food systems while addressing challenges such as climate change, ecological degradation, food insecurity and economic crises [70,71]. Moreover, establishing agricultural parks could be an effective strategy for revitalising and enhancing peri-urban agricultural landscapes [72] and rural buildings for agricultural or tourist activities [73].…”

The profound transformations of traditional rural landscapes have heightened attention towards the recovery and valorisation of their buildings, often abandoned, to accommodate new landscape usage needs. This aligns with the principles of sustainable landscape management. However, knowledge of the rural real estate market remains largely unexplored. This research aims to define and examine the key features influencing the purchase of rural buildings, for shedding light on their market. The objective is to provide useful new insight to the property appraisers and real estate agents involved in the sale of traditional rural buildings, even if in conditions of degradation or abandonment and in traditional landscape contexts. Furthermore, these results could serve as a valuable resource for policymakers, enabling them to indirectly evaluate the impacts of urban and landscape policies on buyers’ preferences regarding key features of rural properties. The research focused on the ‘trulli’, traditional buildings located in the Valle d’Itria (Puglia, Southern Italy). First, a detailed market analysis was carried out with the support of local real estate experts, to survey the transactions of trulli and identify the features influencing their purchase. Second, the obtained dataset was analysed through network analysis, which enabled us to explore the role and importance assigned by buyers to the identified features. The results highlighted that the quality of the landscape where trulli are located changed the buyers’ viewpoint on the purchase features. In greater detail, price, area, potable water accessibility and level of maintenance of trulli were the most crucial features, particularly in high and medium landscape value zones, compatible with touristic and recreational activities. On the other hand, the annex agricultural surface covered a central function in low landscape value zone for possible agricultural uses.
