Tire wear particles (TWPs) are generated by the abrasion of tire tread in contact with the road surface. These particles, continually emitted by road traffic, have been found to permanently permeate ecosystems- making TWPs a major source of microplastics in the environment. TWPs contain various chemicals and additives which represent a proven risk ...

Urban parks have long played an integral role in community landscapes. Urban parks are great locations for green infrastructure because they are frequently highly visible, multipurpose public places with green features. As awareness of the benefits of green infrastructure has expanded over the last decade, its utilization has increased. However, in...

Trees are crucial elements for improving urban microclimates by providing cooling through shading, evapotranspiration, and windbreaks. To maximise their cooling effects, it is essential to strategically position the trees in optimal locations. However, research on optimising tree location and its impact on microclimates is limited owing to computat...

The Gore Glen pond is located in the forested floodplain of the Gore River, in the Mid-Lothian region near Edinburgh, Scotland. This work has considered in detail the hydrology, hydrochemistry, and biodiversity of the pond together with all their interactions and in addition interactions with the adjacent Gore River. It is important as it is one of...

Background Linear transportation infrastructures (roads, railways, oil and gas pipelines, powerlines and waterways) are recognized as important contributors to the fragmentation of species habitats. On the other hand, verges of linear transportation infrastructures (road and railway embankments, strips of grass under power lines or above buried pip...

Droughts are the most expensive climate disasters as they leave long-term and chronic impacts on the ecosystem, agriculture, and human society. The intensity, frequency, and duration of drought events have increased over the years and are expected to worsen in the future on a regional and planetary/global scale. Nature-based solutions (NBS) such as...

Effects of planned Highly Intensive Densification (HID) were investigated in southern Eriksberg, a residential area located four km from the city center, mainly built in the 1950s in western Uppsala, Sweden according to the planning ideal Houses-in-Park. Uppsala municipality has proposed a doubling of the number of apartments in the southern part o...

Urban stormwater runoff has posed significant challenges in the face of urbanization and climate change, emphasizing the importance of trees in providing runoff reduction ecosystem services (RRES). However, the sustainability of RRES can be disturbed by urban landscape modification. Understanding the impact of landscape structure on RRES is crucial...

Denna rapport utforskar effekterna av värmeböljor i urbana miljöer och utforskar användningen av olika stadsplaneringsverktyg för att mildra dessa effekter. Värmestress och värmerelaterade sjukdomar är betydande risker som orsakas av stigande temperaturer i städer, därmed analyseras gröna, blå och gråa lösningar i syfte att minska uppkomsten av vär...
