Editor for the Special Issue: Dr. Rocío Pineda-Martos
Dr. Rocío Pineda-Martos is an active participant of the Working Group (WG) 4 - Urban Farming of the COST Action CA17133 Circular City: Implementing nature-based solutions for creating a resourceful circular city, and member of its extended Core Team (eCT). She also participates as a member of the WG1 and WG5 of the COST Action CA20138 NEXUSNET: Network on water-energy-food nexus for a low-carbon economy in Europe and beyond. She is an Assistant Professor of Agricultural Engineering and Environmental Science and part of the NatUrIB research group on Urban Greening and Biosystems Engineering at the School of Agricultural Engineering (ETSIA), University of Seville (US), Spain. Professional member of the Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) Observatory in Spain, her main scientific research interests and expertise are in line with innovative urban NBS implementation to facilitate the circular economy system and to cope with major challenges in cities; together with her background in digitalization which supports the concept of introduction of new technologies and developments within a city for its sustainability assessment. Dr. Pineda-Martos has experience in the framework on NBS units and interventions related with the sectors of urban farming (food and biomass production; remediation, treatment, and recovery) and the built environment (vertical greening systems and green roofs; (public) green space).
