Nature-based solutions (NBS) are increasingly employed to address urban challenges. Typically, NBS planning emphasizes environmental impacts and ecosystem services, often overlooking their role in addressing vulnerabilities. Our objective is to develop a framework assessing the extent to which NBS alter urban vulnerabilities. For this, we relate ecosystem service and urban metabolism analyses to spatially explicit vulnerabilities. The framework relies on multi-criteria decision analysis to integrate diverse impacts. It follows a stepwise approach including the development of land-use scenarios, selection of vulnerabilities and indicators, normalization and aggregation of indicators, and stakeholder weighting. We apply the framework to the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona to assess the impacts of increasing (peri\u2011)urban agriculture in terms of critical vulnerabilities: heat, lack of recreational space, biodiversity loss, and lack of local food. Results show that agricultural expansion decreased the vulnerability of lack of local food, increased the vulnerability of biodiversity loss, and increased the heat vulnerability in terms of night temperatures for sensitive areas. Results reveal diverse spatial outcomes and trade-offs in urban vulnerabilities due to shifts in (peri\u2011)urban agriculture. The framework innovatively evaluates NBS impacts by linking multiple evaluation methods through spatially explicit vulnerabilities, fostering the strategic planning of NBS at the urban metropolitan scale.<\/p>\n

Les solucions basades en la natura (NBS) s’utilitzen cada vegada m\u00e9s per abordar els reptes urbans. Normalment, la planificaci\u00f3 NBS posa l’\u00e8mfasi en els impactes ambientals i els serveis ecosist\u00e8mics, per\u00f2 sovint passen per alt l’abordatge de les vulnerabilitats associades. El nostre objectiu \u00e9s desenvolupar un marc que avalu\u00ef fins a quin punt les NBS alteren les vulnerabilitats urbanes. Per a aix\u00f2, relacionem els an\u00e0lisis de serveis ecosist\u00e8mics i metabolisme urb\u00e0 amb les vulnerabilitats espacialment expl\u00edcites. El marc es basa en l’an\u00e0lisi de decisions multicriteri per integrar m\u00faltiples impactes. L’enfoc de l’estudi inclou els seg\u00fcents passos: el desenvolupament d’escenaris d’usos del s\u00f2l, la selecci\u00f3 de vulnerabilitats i indicadors, la normalitzaci\u00f3 i agregaci\u00f3 d’indicadors i la ponderaci\u00f3 de les parts interessades. Hem aplicat aquesta metodologia a l’\u00c0rea Metropolitana de Barcelona per avaluar els impactes que l’augment de l’agricultura (peri)urbana podria tenir en termes de vulnerabilitat als seg\u00fcents indicadors: calor, manca d’espai recreatiu, p\u00e8rdua de biodiversitat i manca d’aliments de proximitat. Els resultats mostren que l’expansi\u00f3 agr\u00edcola disminueix la vulnerabilitat cap a la manca d’aliments locals, augmenta la vulnerabilitat a la p\u00e8rdua de biodiversitat i augmenta la vulnerabilitat a la calor en termes de temperatures nocturnes en zones sensibles. Els resultats revelen difer\u00e8ncies espacials en les vulnerabilitats urbanes a causa dels canvis en l’agricultura (peri)urbana. El marc avalua de manera innovadora els impactes de NBS mitjan\u00e7ant la vinculaci\u00f3 de m\u00faltiples m\u00e8todes d’avaluaci\u00f3 a trav\u00e9s de vulnerabilitats espacialment expl\u00edcites, fomentant la planificaci\u00f3 estrat\u00e8gica de NBS a escala metropolitana urbana.<\/p>\n
