This book gives an interdisciplinary overview on urban ecology.
Basic understanding of urban nature development and its social
reception are discussed for the European Metropolitan Area of
Berlin. Furthermore, we investigate specific consequences for the
environment, nature and the quality of life for city dwellers due
to profound changes such as climate change and the demographic and
economic developments associated with the phenomena of shrinking
cities. Actual problems of urban ecology should be discussed not
only in terms of natural dimensions such as atmosphere, biosphere,
pedosphere and hydrosphere but also in terms of social and cultural
dimensions such as urban planning, residence and recreation,
traffic and mobility and economic values. Our research findings
focus on streets, new urban landscapes, intermediate use of brown
fields and the relationships between urban nature and the
well-being of city dwellers. Finally, the book provides a
contribution to the international discussion on urban ecology.
