Abstract Climate change, such as temperature and precipitation changes, is becoming increasingly obvious, in this context, planting designs need to urgently consider future climate change advance. A field experiment was conducted Beijing, China, where the predicted increase, extra irrigation used simulate increase. The species richness of sown meadows, including spontaneous plants plants, adaptive strategies communities were recorded under different types design models substrates. results showed that increased diversity resource-demanding but had no significant effect on dry matter content entire community species. Moreover, interactions among substrate, especially models, significant. Of three-layer model highest least invasive plants. In addition, significantly changed functional strategy plant away from ruderals towards competitor-stress tolerant This study provides guidance for management naturalistic change.

To promote sustainability in urban green spaces, it is necessary to know the diversity of spontaneous species these spaces. Based on investigation and analysis relevant scientific literature, their importance was contextually discussed, along with assessment local biodiversity impact Studies flora, or ecosystem services, studies exotic adaptability were summarized. Finally, existing issues regarding urbanization, role plants restoring industrial areas discussed. research carried out, considered that spaces contain unique useful resulting from management. Spontaneous flora can be a generator aesthetic character, which grown an ecologically sound way private gardens natural town village zones, certain remarkable farming-biological characteristics (ecological plasticity, high hardiness, etc.). Biodiversity feature landscapes, offering multiple gains, conservation this fundamental requires integrated approach. However, urbanisation usually has detrimental influence species’ diversity.

The widespread decline of biodiversity due to increasing urban development raises the need timely identify areas most relevant conservation native species, particularly within cities where natural are extremely limited. Here, we assess multiple role local geomorphological features in shaping patterns and dynamics plant diversity, with aim identifying values priorities an urbanised area Southern Italy. Based on recent historical lists vascular plants, compared floristic composition different portions by considering species' value, ecological biogeographical traits. We found that landscape remnants, accounting for 5% study area, harbour over 85% whole diversity a considerable set exclusive species. Results Generalised Linear Mixed Models show outstanding remnants native, rare specialised compositional similarities among sampled sites resulting from hierarchical clustering, these linear elements also play key maintaining continuity potential connectivity throughout landscape. By comparing current data early XX century, considered significantly more likely host populations declining underlining their as refugia against past future extinctions. Taken together, our findings represent effective framework tackle challenging nature cities, namely providing valuable approach identification priority anthropogenic landscapes.
