Mainstreaming nature-based solutions in human-dominated landscapes: from isolated interventions to evidence-based landscape governance

  1. 1School of Agriculture and Food Sustainability, The University of Queensland, St Lucia, QLD, 4072, Australia; Corresponding authors at: Forest Ecology & Climate Change Division, Indian Council of Forestry Research & Education-Forest Research Institute (ICFRE-FRI), Ranchi 835 303, Jharkhand, India.

Abstract

The editorial of the Special issue “Strategies for Mainstreaming Nature-based Solutions (NbS) for Holistic Mangement of Human-Dominated Landscapes” synthesizes 34 articles. The special issue identifies six major themes: Urban NbS; Risk reduction and adaptive restoration; Ecosystem services, prioritization and ecological compensation; Soil carbon, biogeochemical processes and restoration; Biodiversity, forest ecosystems and conservation evidence; and Socio-ecological coupling, human-land governance and policy. The synthesis collectively demonstrates that mainstreaming NbS should be evidence-based and should address the challenges of human-dominated landscapes with focus to ecological functions, social needs, spatial planning and governance institutions.
