Fuctions of Green belts Structural Functions (Carrier ES) Feeding function Separating cities from each other (Provisioning ES) To check the further growth of large built up area Preserving farmland, Preserving forest Preserve openness, Allows/controls some growth Preserving resources mineral extraction Yang, Jinxing, 2007 Ministry of Housing and Local Government 1955, Bengston, Youn 2006, Amati Yokohari 2006 Howard, Yang, Jinxing 2007 Amati Yokohari 2006 Environmental function (Regulation ES) Preserving natural environments Reduction of pollution, Flood prevention Yang, Jinxing 2007, Kahn , Abbasi 2000, Yokohari et all 2000 Recreation (Cultural ES) Recreation activities Amenity (leisure facilities) Bengston, Youn 2006, Amati Yokohari 2006 Other Ecological (Habitat ES) Local facilities (low-cost housing to promote community facilities) Landscape protection and Unavoidable urban fringe development Amati Yokohari 2006 Green corridor, green wedges Amati Yokohari 2006, Mortberg and Wallnuts 2000, Turner 1995, Frey 2000

- 15. Conclusions: - Idea of protection of open spaces within metropolitan areas reflect different structures / tools BUT - Beside feeding function that secure food / timber production There are many different functions: - Environmental: erosion control, flood control, local climate control, water resources - Ecological : biodiversity and connectivity protection - Cultural – recreation… Invisible in greenbelt strategies - Environmental function
