Governing Sponge City Transitions: Policy Objectives and Socio‐Technical Change
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In theory, climate adaptation policy cycles can be framed as being harmonized and goal‐oriented governance processes. Yet any examination of climate adaptation in cities reveals persistent tensions between this logic and the diverse forces shaping adaptation in practice.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...
