As a core and long-established part of urban blue–green infrastructure (BGI), public parks play significant role in the sustainable development cities. In particular, they make major contribution to maintaining healthy ecosystems providing multiple benefits that support human health quality life as kind nature-based solution (NBS). Still, planning, design, management mostly rely on official standards technical guidelines, whereas societal perspectives use ecosystem services (ES) approach (and cultural (CES) particular) remain inadequately integrated. By assessing CES offered by Gorky Park Moscow (Russia), paper aims bridge this gap investigate flow its relation park visitors’ needs. For purpose, non-participant observation, field notes, photographs were used different functional zones. investigating visitor activities factors affecting them, variety provided have been detected. aligned with original idea, was for recreation, leisure, sports, socializing. Moreover, related aesthetic, educational, heritage values also partially utilized. The attractive younger generation (the highest number visitors), visitors over 60 years old hardly represented. Notably, men more interested sports (especially, team sports), women preferred walking (alone, family, friends), relaxation, playing spending time children, picnicking, etc., which indicated certain preferences among visitors. An interdependent relationship between supply found: infrastructural components identified, greater corresponding detected at observation points, could ultimately lead overcrowding overutilization ES capacity. Given government claims integrating into planning BGI one priorities city’s environmental policies, recommendations are provided. They address recent challenges creating integrated BGI, increasing demand multifunctionality, conflicting interests groups maximize diversity delivered park.

Phytosociology reached its peak development during the 20th century, particularly after 1992 with implementation of EU Habitats Directive, which incorporated plant associations into habitat classifications. The objective this study is to assess diversity Mediterranean grasslands using phytosociological methodology, focusing specifically on PBTs and BsHl associations. Although both types are interest for livestock farming, we emphasize those belonging Poetea bulbosae (PbTs), included in priority 6220 high value sheep grazing. results indicate that Vca-Vco = 0.390 0.525 BsHl, latter due absence companion species BsHl. A strong linear correlation was observed associations, R2 > 0.8 PbTs 0.9 BdHl. Given importance grassland research, teaching should be predominantly practical conducted outside classroom. To achieve this, an inquiry-based constructivist methodology employed, suitable learning method, allowing students take ownership their process. aim approach expose field research methodologies, enhancing scientific training. highly positive, a 100% success rate students’ comprehension two teaching-learning

The rapid pace of technological advancement presents cities with emerging socio-economic and environmental challenges. Drastic climate change threatens the viability biologically comfortable environments, compelling urban areas to adapt new conditions. This adaptation necessitates implementation various strategies maintain population’s well-being, including mitigating effects, which are characterized by rising average temperatures prolonged droughts. Addressing critical issues such as water scarcity extreme temperatures—particularly in Mediterranean regions, where summer can reach 48–50 °C—requires substantial energy consumption, must be met through clean sources reduce carbon emissions. Decarbonization efforts accompanied restructuring green spaces, expansion peri-urban parks, large-scale reforestation enhance sequestration. These measures, combined adoption energy, would mitigate impact elevated CO2 concentrations. In areas, spaces should prioritize biodiversity use native, water-efficient species while avoiding non-native, potentially invasive plants. Furthermore, societal engagement is essential achieving these objectives, education system playing a pivotal role fostering awareness promoting collective action.
