Overview

Examines carbon sequestration and ecosystem services in southern Italy, indicating spatial planning benefits for climate neutrality.

Key Points

  • The main aim is to identify spatial planning approaches that enhance climate neutrality in diverse regions.
  • Developed a methodological framework for evaluating ecosystem services and carbon sequestration.
  • Applied geographically weighted regression to analyze spatial relationships across regions.
  • Assessed environmental, landscape, and socio-cultural features in three southern Italian regions.
  • High carbon sequestration capacity was linked to habitat quality and climate regulation.
  • Recreational and agricultural ecosystem services showed low elasticity in response to carbon sequestration changes.
  • Insights from the analysis can inform climate neutrality planning strategies.
