- dc.description.abstract In a rising urban age planning for cities around the globe is increasingly based on assessments of ecosystemservices, making enhanced considerations of ecosystem service justice critically important. Yet, justice remains a‘blind spot’in urban ecosystem service models and research, which can be traced back to the ecological andeconomic legacies of the concept itself. This legacy reproduces the normative focus on natural capital as aguarantee of sustaining ecosystem services, enforces a static understanding of nature that insufficiently considershuman agency, and conceptualizes ecosystem serviceflows from nature to humans in a way that does not reflectthe social-ecological structure and constantly shifting priorities of the urban realm. In response, this conceptualpaper aims at broadening the analytical foundation for justice in urban ecosystem service assessments by pre-senting a model that links the co-production of urban ecosystem services (including infrastructure, institutions,and perceptions) with established lines of recognition, procedural, and distributional justice. It further highlightsthe need to embed these classical dimensions of justice within both spatial (downscaled and inter-scalar ap-proaches) and temporal (interrelated past, present, and future conditions) justice frames. Relying on urbanenvironmental, social, spatial and temporal justice theory as well ecosystem service scholarship, we outlinetheoretical entry points and provide practical examples for weaving notions of justice into urban ecosystemservice research and practice, while highlighting future research needs.
