Ecological Corridors and Green Space in the City of Poznan, Poland
Green space is widely recognized to be key to sustainable urban planning. The basic functional functions of green corridors have been distinguished: noise insulation, absorption of atmospheric pollutants, enhancing biodiversity, improving the microclimate, and improving the visual quality of the cityscape. In contrast to earlier findings, these results suggest that the best combination of these ecological principles with local planning is the concept of green corridors inside urban areas. These green networks include not only natural habitats but also significantly transformed zones, including settlements. The results of this study suggest that Poznan City green networks are needed on two scales. First, they should be linked to ecological networks at the regional level. Second, green networks are required on a local scale to ensure that greenery is present in urban areas and in consequence improve the quality of life.
