ABSTRACT

The rapid and unpredictable expansion of urban areas poses a major challenge to humanity in adapting to climate change in the coming decades. Therefore, the presence of urban forests promotes climate change adaptation through their geographic location in cities. This systematic literature review (SLR) analyzed the existing research on ecosystem services provided by urban forests for climate change adaptation. The bibliographic databases Web of Science and Scopus were used for the study according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement. There were 484 publications found that were published between 2011 and 2021 using specific terms in both search engines. However, there were only 59 articles from 26 different countries that met the inclusion criteria. When analyzing these 59 articles, the majority focused on carbon storage, while less than a quarter examined other services such as climate regulation and air purification. Hence,
