Abstract

Nature-based solutions (NbSs) are recognised as relevant to spatial planning in addressing societal challenges, although their uptake is limited and fragmented to some case studies, and difficulties emerge from their implementation and operationalisation. The research developed a literature review to investigate how NbS has been considered for its implementation and operationalisation in spatial planning and how NbS has been included across different policy instruments and used to address climate change adaptation (CCA). The results highlighted: Firstly, the review contributed to bridge the gap in NbS implementation and operationalisation by proposing a novel three-dimensional categorisation system to guide the selection of suitable NbS principles to address societal challenges; secondly, this study still revealed gaps in some policy areas, despite the effort to extensively apply NbS across diverse policy instruments to CCA. Overall, the review further emphasises the need for future research focused on monitoring and evaluating NbS's effectiveness to CCA.

适应气候变化的空间规划和政策中基于自然的解决方案：文献综述。

人们认识到，基于自然的解决方案（NbSs）与空间规划在应对社会挑战方面具有相关性，尽管在一些案例研究中，这些解决方案的采用有限且零散，在实施和操作方面也存在困难。本研究通过文献综述，调查了在空间规划中如何考虑实施和操作 NbS，以及如何将 NbS 纳入不同的政策工具并用于解决气候变化适应问题 (CCA)。研究结果强调了以下几点首先，通过提出一个新颖的三维分类系统来指导选择合适的 NbS 原则以应对社会挑战，该审查有助于缩小 NbS 实施和操作方面的差距；其次，尽管努力将 NbS 广泛应用于 CCA 的各种政策工具中，但本研究仍揭示了某些政策领域中的差距。总之，本次审查进一步强调了未来研究的必要性，重点是监测和评估 NbS 对共同国家评估的有效性。
