L’aqueduc de Fontanières : un cinquième aqueduc romain à Lyon ? by Jean-Yves Barbier

“…At La Mulatière, a well-preserved 19 m section of the canal is still visible within the Cave de la Fleurie, and 500 m further north, portions of its foundation were found in the Fontanières gardens, in proximity to numerous reused blocks of tile mortar that reveal the destruction of the pipe it was intended to support.Finally, diligent and unrelenting research, combining fortuitous location scouting and field surveys, tenacious consultation of archives and exploitation of a network of local contacts, led to the discovery, 1 km further north, in Lyon’s 5th arrondissement, of another section of the canal, over 18 m long, as far as the scree filling in its extension in the heights of the Montée Saint-Laurent, downstream from the Rue des Trois-Artichauts towards Choulans. …”

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

“…These strategies include: 1) At the site scale, for carbon sequestration and sink enhancement – carbon sink at the source, land balance, and ecological design; for emission reduction – symbiosis with buildings and integration into daily life. 2) At the community scale, for carbon sequestration – overall balance of revenue and expenditure, precise positioning, and proper interconnection of the carbon chain; for emission reduction – incorporation of cool islands and co-construction. 3) At the urban area scale, for carbon sequestration – enhancement of ecological space management and establishment of a carbon-safe pattern; for emission reduction – demand-based layout and organic dispersion. Finally, the research proposes five major research topics for the planning of UBGI’s carbon sink enhancement and emission reduction: How to construct unified measurement methods for UBGI’s efficiency in carbon sink enhancement and emission reduction across scales? …”
