Despite the increasing number of flood studies, interrelationships between urban form indices (UFIs) and resilience (FR) have received little attention hold miscellaneous perspectives. Consequentially, this study identifies how UFIs at various spatial scales affect FR by synthesizing article findings proposing insights for future research. Scientometric analysis has been used to analyze gathered peer-reviewed articles from nine research engines without time restrictions. One hundred eighteen relevant were included thoroughly investigated using Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol. Our indicate that divergent dialectical perspectives about efficacy are due multiple disciplines, methodologies, different case contexts. The studies classified according scale as macro (citywide), meso (districts), micro (block), multi-scalar 80.5%, 6.8%, 10.2%, 2.4%, respectively. Furthermore, categorized based on type into realistic literature reviews, modeling, hybrid analysis, with 74.6%, 7.6%, 14.4%, 3.4%, At macroscale, city density distribution degree most significant effect FR. same time, mixed uses, connectivity, coverage ratio, block arrangements, street characteristics scales.

The combination of urbanization and global warming leads to urban overheating compounds the frequency intensity extreme heat events due climate change. Yet, risk can be mitigated by green-blue-grey infrastructure (GBGI), such as parks, wetlands, engineered greening, which have potential effectively reduce summer air temperatures. Despite many reviews, evidence bases on quantified GBGI cooling benefits remains partial practical recommendations for implementation are unclear. This systematic literature review synthesizes base mitigation related co-benefits, identifies knowledge gaps, proposes their maximize benefits. After screening 27,486 papers, 202 were reviewed, based 51 types categorized under 10 main divisions. Certain (green walls, street trees) been well researched capabilities. However, several other received negligible (zoological garden, golf course, estuary) or minimal (private allotment) attention. most efficient was observed in botanical gardens (5.0 ± 3.5°C), wetlands (4.9 3.2°C), green walls (4.1 4.2°C), trees (3.8 3.1°C), vegetated balconies 2.7°C). Under changing conditions (2070-2100) with consideration RCP8.5, there is a shift subtypes, either within same zone (e.g., Dfa Dfb Cfb Cfa) across zones [continental warm-summer humid] BSk [dry, cold semi-arid] Cwa [temperate] Am [tropical]). These shifts may result lower efficiency current future. Given importance multiple services, it crucial balance functionality, performance, co-benefits when planning future GBGI. inventory assist policymakers planners prioritizing effective interventions overheating, filling research promoting community resilience.

This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) process to know the present status of research on urban Blue-Green Infrastructure (BGI) in lower-middle-income countries South Asian region, specifically India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, and Pakistan, which produced 77 relevant publications after detailed scanning published between 2013 2022. It was aimed analyze variations BGI's mentions different regions, identify BGI components found literature their promote sustainability, initiatives, priorities, knowledge gaps for future research. The review reveals significant differences distribution among countries, with majority articles focusing green spaces compared bluescapes concentrating topics like local inhabitant's perception spaces, advantages implementing nature-based solutions, role infrastructures minimizing heat island effect, air pollution, etc. Articles highlighted lack governance challenges designing network. However, discussing holistic methodology implement promoting sustainability were limited. Gaps still exist determining appropriate strategy scope identification, creation, management, integrating it existing grey infrastructure.

As cities grapple with rising temperatures, the integration of urban greenery has gained recognition as a viable solution to mitigate these effects and enhance outdoor thermal conditions. This paper identifies widely used emerging numerical models, highlights research gaps, addresses key insights from selected literature. Grounded in PRISMA-based review, it offers optimize strategies for mitigating heat islands enhancing livability. The study explores synergies trade-offs between green infrastructure built environment, aiming provide into optimizing elements sustainable development. In this research, mixed-methods approach was adopted by combining systematic review bibliometric using PRISMA 2020 VOSviewer 1.6.19 48 relevant studies. process led selection papers both qualitative synthesis analysis. results indicate significant increase output last decades marked focus on roofs, parks, vertical greening systems.

Aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals, nature-based solutions such as urban greening e.g. public gardens, forests, parks and street trees, which aim to protect, sustainably manage or restore an ecosystem, have emerged a promising tool for improving health well-being of ever-increasing population. While efforts undeniable benefits human biological communities inhabiting these green zones, disease vector populations may also be affected, possibly promoting greater pathogen transmission emergence infectious diseases dengue, West Nile fever, malaria, leishmaniosis tick-borne diseases. Evidence impact areas on vector-borne (VBD) is scarce. Furthermore, because vast disparities between cities, variation in landscapes differing scales observation, findings are often contradictory; this calls careful assessment how affects VBD risk. Improved understanding effect VBDs would support planning, monitoring management spaces cities mitigate risks surrounding populations.
