Mapping changes in ecosystem wealth associated with cities expansion: the case of 9 Asian countries (2026) · Scientific Reports · doi
Further research is needed to develop cities that align with green, resilient, and inclusive pathways. Studies should investigate the impacts of urban expansion on ecosystems in other regions and contexts. Research should focus on developing coordinated policies and strategic investment decisions at both national and local levels to address the environmental footprint of urbanization.
