Climate change causes sudden and unexpected weather events on earth. Cities are the areas where the effects of climate change are felt most intensely. These effects occur in cities as the increase in the heat island effect, air pollution, heat waves and water scarcity, changes in precipitation regime, an increase in the number of dry days, and rainwater causing floods or inundations. The effects of climate change will affect all kinds of land use, ecosystem services and human behavior. It is necessary to accept that the world's climate is already changing and will continue to change for decades. Considering the emerging effects on land use and biota, the option of adapting landscapes to reduce the undesirable effects of climate change is now on the political and research agendas. Therefore, the adaptation of landscape systems to climate change is an emerging topic in science.
This study focuses on the important role of regulatory ecosystem services provided by positive design against the threat of climate change and increasing the resilience of cities. Climate regulation, improvement of air and soil quality, reduction of the effects of problems such as floods and landslides, protection of pollination and biodiversity were mentioned with landscape management and sustainable landscape design. It was revealed that it is possible to adapt various landscape works to eliminate or mitigate the negative effects of climate in urban areas.
