The significance of urban landscapes in safeguarding biodiversity is often disregarded, even though a considerable amount conservation focus directed toward hotspots where land conversion happening at the fastest pace. Maintaining areas not only benefits environment, but along with social, economic, and technological factors can increase stability systems to disturbance, concept known as “urban resilience”. In this synthesis paper, we explore ecological dimension resilience specifically on avian because birds are easy observe, relatively abundant, serve an indicator overall health environments. We first examine discuss role environmental stressors associated urbanization ongoing crisis. then provide overview characteristics environment that may promote birds, associations between social economic resilience. Finally, recommendations future research regarding strategies improve thus, whole, intersections ecology, ecosystem justice, planning. Since 68% world’s population projected live by 2050, it imperative scientists, planners, civil engineers, architects, others consider both cities natural anthropogenic stressors.

It is crucial to clarify the nonlinear effects of urban multidimensional characteristics on land surface temperature (LST). However, combined consideration green space (UGS), water bodies, buildings, and socio-economic factors limited. And diurnal differences in their thermal have been less considered. In this study, central Beijing was taken as study area. Local climate zones (LCZ) were firstly applied reveal spatiotemporal heterogeneity LST. Then, interpretable machine learning methods utilized quantitatively characteristics, i.e., UGS, building landscape features, features. The results indicated that built type LCZs a higher average LST compared natural LCZs. simultaneously influenced by buildings' density height characteristics. Daytime mainly affected proportions trees, while nighttime more key exhibit Whether during day or night, impact coverage greater than height, consistently exhibiting warming effect. While, body edge both exhibited reversal trend between night. Our also emphasized importance trees UGS provided recommendations for planning based sensitivity contribution considerations. These findings can help regulate promote sustainable development.

Urban Heat Vulnerability (UHV) has received increasing attention over the last two decades due to exacerbation of global warming and Island (UHI) effect, amid rapid urbanisation climate change. While there been a notable growth in UHV research, systematic reviews meta-analyses focusing on broader range issues research trajectories are notably absent. This study aims provide comprehensive understanding historical progression, current clusters, emerging trends by utilising scientometric method. It examines 2340 UHV-related scholarly articles published past fifty years (1970s 2020s). The major findings this analysis are: (a) is an area expected rapidly expand; (b) clustered around five interconnected key areas: planning architectural design; environment ecology; public health wellbeing; meteorology; remote sensing; (c) recent shift focus towards wellbeing perspectives studies highlights importance human-social interdisciplinary collaboration; (d) Remote sensing, particularly supported machine learning, significant technical tool research; (e) aligns with UN sustainable development goals contributes achieving urban sustainability resilience. Further advancements will require collaboration, technological innovations, targeted policies effectively address heat impacts protect vulnerable populations.

Abundant and diverse urban bird communities promote ecosystem human health in cities. However, the estimation of community structure requires large amounts resources. On other hand, calculating remotely sensed spectral indices is cheap easy. Such are directly related to vegetation cover, built-up temperature, factors that also affect presence abundance species areas. Therefore, can be used as proxies communities. We estimated abundance, taxonomic, functional, phylogenetic diversity at each 18 50 m radius survey stations core area Kavala, Greece. calculated eight (means standard deviations, SDs) around m, 200 500 spatial scales. The land surface temperature SD (LST) was most important proxy, positively At same time, mean green normalized difference index (GNDVI) negatively scale. Means SDs indices, such (NDVI), enhanced (EVI2), soil-adjusted (SAVI), atmospherically resistant (ARVI), were proxies, taxonomic functional all LST, moisture (NDMI), (NDBI) variously affected diversity. LST best scales, while NDBI NDMI results suggest several reliable various facets Using an easy efficient way informing successful planning management.
