| Sumari: | Cities face sustainability challenges that make it necessary to generate environmental information through the use of indicators. This paper analyzes the availability and distribution of ecological infrastructure in the city of Mar del Plata (Argentina), and its peri-urban area, in order to build a necessary information base to assess the availability of Urban Ecosystemic Services. For this, environmental indicators were used that evaluate these attributes on the public green surface, the surface of non-waterproofed soil and the vegetation cover. The results show an unequal distribution of these elements, which could have implications for opportunities for direct contact with nature by the urban population, this being a determinant in the generation of a large part of the Cultural Ecosystemic Services. |
