• Resumen

  • This study aims to analyze the relationships between the provision of ecosystem services,the various attributes of green spaces, and the characteristics of urban areas, by using the Italian cityof Cagliari as the primary focal point of investigation. Within the urban environment, a set of regulating ecosystem services has been identified as particularly significant, and its interplay with thespatial configuration of green spaces within urban environments is assessed in detail. These ecosystem services encompass crucial facets such as heat regulation, carbon sequestration and storage, and the effective management of surface runoff, of outmost importance to mitigate flood events.
