Nature-based solutions are proposed as a valid way to address risk and adapt to climate change while increasing resilience through the multiple benefits they generate. However, in spite of the widespread academic and political support for NBS, their implementation is lacking. As key barriers to implementation there are institutional and regulatory barriers, an absence of clear evaluation of NBS performance, funding/financing barriers and knowledge and acceptance barriers. This Open Access book provides a hands-on guide to overcome these barriers, through the stepwise creation of nature-assurance schemes that operationalize the insurance value of ecosystems. At the basis thereof is an integrated biophysical, economic and social assessment which is integrated with implementation considerations through the generation of business models and blended funding and financing schemes. This book will be of interest to practitioners and researchers who want to better understand how to operationalize the insurance value of ecosystems. The book provides 9 DEMO examples on the application of this method across different scales: urban, medium and large catchments and target both floods and droughts. 410 0$aWater Security in a New World,$x2367-4016 606 $aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aUrban ecology (Biology) 606 $aGeography 606 $aNatural disasters 606 $aFreshwater ecology 606 $aMarine ecology 606 $aEnvironmental Studies 606 $aWater 606 $aUrban Ecology 606 $aRegional Geography 606 $aNatural Hazards 606 $aFreshwater and Marine Ecology 615 0$aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aUrban ecology (Biology) 615 0$aGeography. 615 0$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aFreshwater ecology. 615 0$aMarine ecology. 615 14$aEnvironmental Studies. 615 24$aWater. 615 24$aUrban Ecology. 615 24$aRegional Geography. 615 24$aNatural Hazards. 615 24$aFreshwater and Marine Ecology. 676 $a333.91 686 $aNAT023000$aSCI020000$aSCI030000$aSCI081000$2bisacsh 700 $aLópez-Gunn$b Elena$01363744 701 $avan der Keur$b Peter$01363745 701 $aVan Cauwenbergh$b Nora$01363746 701 $aLe Coent$b Philippe$01363747 701 $aGiordano$b Raffaele$01363748 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910720058703321 996 $aGreening Water Risks$93384785 997 $aUNINA
