2 European Conferences on Biodiversity and Climate Change Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President 2011: 2013: Proceedings Proceedings Scientific study 2015:
3 Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President Starting Point of the Conference 2015 Severe effects of climate change on urban inhabitants and urban nature: high temperatures ( heat-island-effect ), heatwaves drought stormwater runoff, flooding (invasive) alien species Picture: Alice Schröder AIMS of the conference: foster linkages between science, policy and practice regarding nature-based solutions to meet the challenge of climate change in urban areas + further multiple-benefits Picture: Jens Schiller
4 BfN's Role as Science-Policy-Interface Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President BfN as scientific advisory body of the German Ministry for the Environment (BMUB): International: e.g. National European: e.g. Policy Science
5 BfN Research Project: Awareness of Urban Nature Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President How important is nature in the city for the following aspects? (Source: Nature Awareness Study 2015, BfN, to be published 01/2016) for the well-being of city inhabitants as habitat for animals and plants for the townscape for cc mitigation and adaptation for the city s prestige for property value Very important Important Unimportant Not important at all No comment
6 Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President BfN Research Project: Urban Nature and Climate Change Green spaces can support adaptation to climate change Big green spaces have higher cooling effect than small ones. Cooling effect increases with amount of green volume. Different climatic effects of urban vegetation during day and night. Open space system with large connected open spaces can have slightly higher cooling effect than one with many single small open spaces. Network of small open spaces important for bioclimatic functions. Distribution of green volume and maximum cooling effect in the city of Dresden (Source: Mathey et al. 2011)
7 BfN Research Project: Ecosystem-Based Approaches Nature-based Solutions to Climate Change in Urban Areas, Bonn/Germany, Nov. 2015, Prof. Dr. Beate Jessel, BfN President Ecosystem-based approaches to climate change adaptation and mitigation success factors and obstacles encountered Collection and analyses of casestudies from Europe and Germanspeaking countries Scientific studies Online project database (German only) Information broschures Guidelines for project managers (German only)
