Context The pressure on remaining open spaces of urban green infrastructure (UGI) is high due to increasing urbanization and the multiple requirements of a diverse urban population. Thus, a good quality and high capacity for ecosystem services of UGI is crucial to support a good quality of life. Objectives This study analyses the influence of tree cover and other green parameters like species richness on ecosystem service use in urban parks and green brownfields. The outcomes contribute to design and management of resilient UGI. Methods We assessed the diversity of woody and herbaceous flowering species in 36 study sites with low, medium and high tree cover in the city of Leipzig, Germany. UGI users were counted, and randomly selected visitors (n = 1750) were interviewed about their use of ecosystem services. Results We found tree cover in urban parks negatively influencing physical interactions used by respondents. In parks with high tree cover, more respondents were benefitting from regulating services such as noise mediation or shade provision. Brownfield visitors preferred sites with low to medium tree cover, mainly for walking the dog but also for other ecosystem services. Plant species richness did not show significant influence. Conclusions Tree cover in parks and brownfields can be a predictor for a range of ecosystem services typically used by visitors, highlighting how vegetation or green structures in UGI can be employed to steer the use. Brownfields provide additional space for complementary ecosystem service use, thus contributing to the avoidance of potential use conflicts in managed UGI like parks.

城市绿色基础设施的绿色成分如何影响生态系统服务的使用?来自德国莱比锡的例子

背景 由于城市化进程的加快和多样化城市人口的多重需求,城市绿色基础设施 (UGI) 的剩余开放空间面临很大压力。因此,UGI 生态系统服务的高质量和高容量对于支持良好的生活质量至关重要。目标 本研究分析了树木覆盖率和其他绿色参数(如物种丰富度)对城市公园和绿色棕地生态系统服务利用的影响。结果有助于弹性 UGI 的设计和管理。方法 我们评估了德国莱比锡市 36 个具有低、中和高树木覆盖率的研究地点的木本和草本开花物种的多样性。UGI 用户被计算在内,随机选择的访问者(n = 1750)接受了关于他们使用生态系统服务的采访。结果我们发现城市公园中的树木覆盖对受访者使用的物理互动产生负面影响。在树木覆盖率高的公园,更多的受访者受益于调节服务,如噪音调解或遮荫提供。棕地游客更喜欢低到中等树木覆盖的地点,主要用于遛狗,但也用于其他生态系统服务。植物物种丰富度无显着影响。结论公园和棕地中的树木覆盖率可以预测游客通常使用的一系列生态系统服务,突出了 UGI 中的植被或绿色结构如何用于引导使用。棕地为补充生态系统服务的使用提供了额外的空间,从而有助于避免在管理的 UGI 等公园中的潜在使用冲突。
