Along green streets nature based solutions contribute to control flooding, improve air and drainage water quality, increase the amount of water infiltrated, reduce the "urban heat island" effect and create pedestrian connections. The paper comments the chances to import good practices in the Mediterranean area, through an application on the open spaces constantly frequented by a large number of users around a University Luigi Vanvitelli venue in the city of Aversa (CE), within the work underway in a local unit of the PRIN 2015 research project on adaptive design for the resilient regeneration.

Abstract
Along green streets nature based solutions contribute to control flooding, improve air and drainage water quality, increase the amount of water infiltrated, reduce the "urban heat island" effect and create pedestrian connections. The paper comments the chances to import good practices in the Mediterranean area, through an application on the open spaces constantly frequented by a large number of users around a University Luigi Vanvitelli venue in the city of Aversa (CE), within the work underway in a local unit of the PRIN 2015 research project on adaptive design for the resilient regeneration. The research, aimed at a contribution for local administrations interested in applying the best international practices for urban and peri-urban open spaces redevelopment by implementing the vegetation heritage, verifies the potential hint to rainwater control and improvement of the wellbeing conditions, comparing climatic data and modeling, technical solutions and results.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
