Question

Describe a Brownfield. What are they? Why do so many exist?

Answer 1

hi mate

The term brownfield was originally used in construction and development to reference land that at some point was occupied by a permanent structure. In a brownfield project the structure would need to be demolished or renovated. Today, the term brownfield project is used in many industries, including software development, to mean to start a project based on prior work or to rebuild (engineer) a product from an existing one.

Contrast with greenfield.

Answer 2

Heya mate... Here's your answer⬇

Brownfield➡Brownfield land is a term used in urban planning to describe any previously developed land that is not currently in use, whether contaminated or not. It is also used to describe land previously used for industrial or commercial purposes with known or suspected pollution including soil contamination due to hazardous waste

Reasons:

1.Evidence is there they are good for wildlife:

e.g. 12-15% of rare and scarce invertebrates live on brownfield sites - there is great biodiversity per square foot - on a par with ancient woodland

2. they are also good for wildlife (i.e. reason they have so many different plants , mammal, birds, bees, butterflies and other invertebrates)

complex habitats

nutrient poor,

stressed

disturbed

bare ground give a hot microclimate which insects like

The variety of flowers gives a variety of nectar source for insects

There is spatial variety - different types of substrate

There is temporal variety - different successional stages

3. They mimic habitat associated with many rare species. They mimic grassland, heathland and coastal scrub which are now rare habitats.
