| A FEKETE-KÖRÖS ERDEINEK VíZPÓTLÁSA ÉS 15 ÉVES ÖKOLÓGIAI EREDMÉNYEI | Restoration of floodplain watercourse network to provide surface water supply to the forest from backwater of flood waves on the river Körös. During the execution of the job there came into being a 38.8 km long water-flow and a free water surface of 15.7 hectares. The work touched a forest area of more than 400 hectares with a direct positive ecological impact. During the execution of the system we were able to renovate partially a forest area damaged more than about 150 years ago. | Habitat Reconstruction in the forests of the Körös Valley, Hungary |
| Hopital cantonnal, zone sud; toiture végétalisée | In 1973, it has been decided to install green roofs on new buildings of the southern area of the Hospital City in Geneva. The aim was first to rebuild a biotope which had disapeared in the urban area; architects became aware of the benefits that green roofs could provide on water retention only later, in 1989. | Green roofs in Geneva, Switzerland |

| Pollutant Removal Efficiencies and Flow Detention of Infiltration Trenches |
The study is carried out by flow weighted sampling at the inlet and outlet of one infiltration trench in Kungsbacka south of Gothenburg, located under the parking lot of a supermarket. The observations and sampling were conducted during April to June 2012 and the results from five storm events were analyzed. | Infiltration trenches in Kungsbacka, Sweden |
| Climate Proofing Housing Landscapes | This is the website describing elements of the project urban climate proofing, a project in inner London, a Life+ project (2013-2016) who developed an integrated approach to climate adaptation in urban areas by undertaking a package of affordable, light-engineering climate change adaptation measures based around the retrofitting of blue and green infrastructure.
