Nature-based solutions (NBS) find increasing attention as actions to address societal challenges through harnessing ecological processes, yet knowledge gaps exist regarding approaches to landscape planning with NBS. This paper aims to provide suggestions of how planning NBS can be conceptualized and applied in practice. We develop a framework for planning NBS by merging insights from literature and a case study in the Lahn river landscape, Germany. Our framework relates to three key criteria that define NBS, and consists of six steps of planning: Co-define setting, Understand challenges, Create visions and scenarios, Assess potential impacts, Develop solution strategies, and Realize and monitor. Its implementation is guided by five principles, namely Place-specificity, Evidence base, Integration, Equity, and Transdisciplinarity. Drawing on the empirical insights from the case study, we suggest suitable methods and a checklist of supportive procedures for applying the framework in practice. Taken together, our framework can facilitate planning NBS and provides further steps towards mainstreaming.
基于自然的解决方案（NBS）作为通过利用生态过程应对社会挑战的行动，越来越受到关注，但在将NBS应用于景观规划的方法方面仍存在知识空白。本文旨在就如何将NBS规划概念化并应用于实践提供建议。我们通过融合文献见解和德国兰河景观的案例研究，开发了一个NBS规划框架。我们的框架涉及定义NBS的三个关键标准，并由六个规划步骤组成：共同定义背景、理解挑战、创建愿景和情景、评估潜在影响、制定解决方案策略以及实现与监测。其实施由五个原则指导，即因地制宜、证据基础、整合、公平和跨学科性。借鉴案例研究的实证见解，我们建议了在实践中应用该框架的合适方法和支持程序清单。总体而言，我们的框架可以促进NBS规划，并为将其纳入主流提供进一步的步骤。
