What Nature-Based Flood Protection Solutions Are Best Perceived by People? Lessons from Field Research in Czechia
Original language description
Nature-based solutions (NBS) can be used as alternatives to technical measures for mitigating the landscape impact of increasingly frequent and severe floods. This chapter aims to fill the existing knowledge gap regarding public preferences and awareness of the implementation of NBS and types of cultivated crops (TCC) that may be used to mitigate pluvial floods by exploring preferences of the residents in the Oleška river basin in Czechia. An image-assisted questionnaire survey and a discrete choice experiment were used, with focus also on residents? willingness to pay. Data were collected through face-to-face surveys (n = 256) with residents of the Oleška river basin. Among the 9 examined NBS (linear and point) and 3 TCC, afforestation and grassing along the stream were best perceived by residents from the purely aesthetical point of view and, together with dry polders, they were considered the most relevant solution for flood mitigation. Based on the discrete choice experiment, linear and point NBS are preferred over TCC measures. However, implementation of any studied NBS was perceived better than a situation without any NBS. Local residents? preferences should be reflected as one of the criteria in planning and selecting the available efficient measures that may be implemented in response to climate change.
