متن کاملNature that Breeds Solutions
For at least half a century now, the field of natural computing has grown in popularity. This popularity is largely driven by the successful use of nature-inspired approaches, such as evolutionary algorithms, artificial neural networks, swarm intelligence algorithms, artificial immune systems and many others, in solving various problems. These techniques have proven their important role on many...
متن کاملNature-based agricultural solutions: Scaling perennial grains across Africa
Modern plant breeding tends to focus on maximizing yield, with one of the most ubiquitous implementations being shorter-duration crop varieties. It is indisputable that these breeding efforts have resulted in greater yields in ideal circumstances; however, many farmed locations across Africa suffer from one or more conditions that limit the efficacy of modern short-duration hybrids. In view of ...
متن کاملCharacterisation of Nature-Based Solutions for the Built Environment
Nature has provided humankind with food, fuel, and shelter throughout evolutionary history. However, in contemporary cities, many natural landscapes have become degraded and replaced with impermeable hard surfaces (e.g., roads, paving, car parks and buildings). The reversal of this trend is dynamic, complex and still in its infancy. There are many facets of urban greening initiatives involving ...
متن کاملDouble Insurance in Dealing with Extremes: Ecological and Social Factors for Making Nature-Based Solutions Last
Global urbanisation has led to extreme population densities often in areas prone to problems such as extreme heat, storm surges, coastal and surface flooding, droughts and fires. Although nature based solutions (NBS) often have specific targets, one of the overarching objectives with NBS design and implementation is to protect human livelihoods and well-being, not least by protecting real estat...
