Research Progress in and Planning Strategies for Multi-scale Measurement of the Efficiency of Urban Blue-Green Infrastructure in Carbon Sink Enhancement and Emission Reduction by Song LIU, Zhaocheng BAI, Dizi LIU, Peiyu SHEN

“…Conclusion The carbon sink pathway of the strategy framework requires “carbon sink at the source – precise positioning – safe pattern”, and the emission reduction pathway requires “symbiotic integration – co-construction and sharing – organic dispersion”. The key trade-offs between these two pathways at three spatial scales may provide theoretical support and practical guidance for UBGI construction and management. …”
