Designing multifunctional NbS in cities requires insights in how NbS contribute to biodiversity, since biodiversity supports ecosystem stability and resilience, and benefits for people. While knowledge of urban biodiversity has increased, a comprehensive understanding of how NbS contribute to biodiversity is still lacking. We analyzed the outcomes of 185 urban NbS cases in 87 cities across 33 countries, based on data collected in a systematic literature review. Our results show that 78% of NbS cases contribute positively to improving biodiversity when compared to non-NbS. In some cases, their performance was comparable to that of natural reference sites. Twenty-eight NbS cases evaluating multiple outcomes, beyond biodiversity, predominantly demonstrate win–win solutions for biodiversity and human well-being, although the evidence base remains limited. We showed that current evidence is limited to specific taxa (mostly animals), NbS types (e.g., gardens, forests), and commonly used metrics (e.g., species richness, abundance). We also found that only 39% of cases integrated baseline data, highlighting a lack of comparative studies effectively assessing NbS contributions to biodiversity. Our research provides insights for indicator selection to facilitate the evaluation of NbS for biodiversity and beyond, advancing the understanding of multifunctional NbS, and expanding NbS evaluations to provide accessible information for decision-making and policy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11459,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Indicators","volume":"175 ","pages":"Article 113523"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143878615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cooccurrence of pines (<em>Pinus</em> species) and oaks (<em>Quercus</em> species), separated by ∼ 100 million years in the evolutionary history, and hence differing conspicuously in life history, morphology and adaptation to environment, has immense ecological importance. However, ecology of many species and several geographical areas has hardly been investigated. Here, we discuss why “pine and oak type” is an important ecological entity of global significance with regard to (i) evolutionary time scale, and (ii) diversification of the genera, (iii) environmental responses of species, and (iv) co-occurrence of pine and oak despite their contrasting responses to drought and fire. Furthermore, given their long term persistence, and resilience and successional linkage we have (v) discussed a few aspects of their potential for Nature based Solutions (NbS). While the pines’ basic strategy is to keep a ‘wide safety margin’, both in terms of hydraulic parameters and protection of stem with thick bark to deal with water stress and fire respectively, oaks depend on effective recovery after the damage caused by drought or/and fire. To achieve it, oaks’ strategy is to maximise resource (carbohydrate) capture by keeping stomata open in dry conditions and use resources to recover by resprouting. There is a need to extend research to many more species of pine and oak to understand this ecological system. Pine and oak forests have contributed to the sustenance of organic agriculture in several parts of Himalayas as an example, and hold potential for NbS in a changing world.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11459,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Indicators","volume":"175 ","pages":"Article 113536"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143881478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, we conducted a field survey in natural secondary forests and collected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) LiDAR data. Traditional diversity indices were calculated using relative density and importance value, and their correlations with LiDAR features were analyzed. These analyses incorporated assessments of different spatial resolutions and heterogeneity metrics for estimating tree diversity. The results revealed that (1) the diversity indices calculated with importance value correlate better with LiDAR features than with relative density; (2) among heterogeneity metrics, Rao’s Q outperformed the coefficient of variation (CV), and heterogeneity metrics overall performed better than structural features in estimating tree diversity; (3) the LiDAR data provided fine-scale structural information, with the highest accuracy for estimating tree diversity achieved at a 1 m spatial resolution; and (4) features from the cover category, including canopy cover (CC), cover of the herbaceous layer (CH), and cover of the tree layer (CT), demonstrated greater robustness and stronger correlations with tree diversity across different spatial resolutions.

Instead of distilling soil health to one metric, the framework enables simultaneous comparison of the delivery and trade-offs between different ecosystem services that are delivered by soils, accounting for inherent capability determined by soil type and land use. The framework has potential to explore a whole systems approach, ascertaining soil system response in real time that can detect emergent properties of the system. Initial development of the framework ranked salient soil properties known to be linked and pertinent to the delivery of ecosystem services. These key soil properties, together with other environmental variables were used to create simple conceptual models representing a causal network for soils’ contributions to the ecosystem services of climate regulation, food production, water regulation and below-ground biodiversity. The conceptual models were developed into Bayesian Belief Networks populated with relevant national data and expert judgement. The resulting outputs gave an indication of how well (i.e. healthy) a soil can deliver each ecosystem service at a land parcel scale presented in a dashboard app. The output at a specific location can be contextualised or benchmarked against to the range of values for areas with similar soil and land use types. The idea was to build the model with readily available data and knowledge but with flexibility for iterative development to refine the framework and models and improve outputs over time. This enables indicator updates using inputs of local knowledge of land management, or when additional soil data becomes available, or when soil policy drivers change, or our understanding of the conceptual and statistical models are improved.

Investigating the influence of the water supply on vegetation dynamics in this basin is crucial, particularly in light of the challenges posed by climate change. However, the response of vegetation to different water sources remains poorly understood. To address this gap, this study explores the influence of precipitation, surface runoff, and soil water on vegetation growth in the YRB via hydrologic modelling and remote sensing data from 2003 to 2021. The results revealed a decreasing trend in drought-prone areas. The overall vegetation growth has progressively improved despite challenges posed by water scarcity. More areas in the YRB are affected by water shortages than surpluses in terms of vegetation growth. During the growing season, vegetation is primarily affected by water shortage, although in exceptional cases, it is constrained by excess water, which typically occurs during the nongrowing season. In the upper and middle Jinsha River Basin, vegetation growth is primarily restricted by water surpluses, while in the middle and lower YRB, constraints commonly arise from water deficits. Additionally, surface runoff and soil moisture play more significant roles in influencing vegetation growth than precipitation.
