Accelerated urbanization represents one of the most significant pressures on the urban environment. The transition from "green" to "grey" amplifies the vulnerability of cities to the effects of climate change (temperature rise, floods, droughts, and air quality degradation). In this context, urban green spaces, and public parks in particular, acquire a strategic role as nature-based solutions (NBS). NBS are capable of providing essential ecosystem services such as mitigating the urban heat island effect, stormwate...

From a lithological point of view, the studied territory - Central Heating System of Rovinari is made up of deposits and in the depression quaternary deposits are found, belonging to the holocene (gravel and sand). In the Jiu - Motru River the deposits contain 4-6 layers of lignite, of low thickness, so the area was affected by coal extraction. From the point of view of the hydrographic network, except those of the lower order, the waters passing through the region belong to the basin of Jiu and Tismana. These wat...
