Assessment of urban ecosystem service provisioning under climate change and urbanisation

Thesis topic for Bachelor/ Master, supervisor Prof. Dr. Nadja Kabisch

This topic seeks for Masters Thesis’ efforts to assess quantitatively with primary or secondary data the provision of regulating and cultural ecosystem services under challenges of climate change and/or urbanisation. Questions may include: how is the provision of recreational ecosystem services changing under heat and drought conditions or how is the provision of regulating ecosystem services such as carbon storage or climate regulation or flood regulation impacted by urbanisation related developments such as soil sealing.
