ispublished: pub
full_text_status: public
abstract: This study investigates how and to what degree the ESS Approach has been translated from science into strategic planning by comparing urban land use- and coastal –planning of the cities Hamburg (Germany) and San Francisco (USA). The success of the incorporation of the ESS Approach in the regions planning frameworks is investigated by analyzing policy, inter-institutional coordination, and planning instruments in regard to water-, land -use and urban development. Results show a strong emphasis on ESS within strategic planning especially these prescribed by higher legislation. Planning instruments also tend to be oriented towards specific ecosystem components. A coordinating agency may support greater ESS Approaches and their incorporation into (strategic) planning and legislation. Besides, vertical and horizontal cooperation, better- inter-institutional coordination and - consideration of land-sea processes is required in this regard. Finally, collaboration and the integration of innovative ideas on several scales is crucial for capacity building and ESS Approaches.
