In response to the escalating challenges posed by climate change, this study investigates the critical role of ecological engineering principles in informing urban planning processes. Urbanization exacerbates climate change impacts, necessitating innovative approaches to mitigate environmental degradation and enhance climate resilience within urban areas. By synthesizing ecological insights, this research explores strategies for integrating biodiversity conservation, green infrastructure development, and ecosystem service enhancement into urban planning frameworks. Through literature review and case study analysis, the study elucidates practical applications of ecological engineering principles to address climate-related challenges such as extreme weather events, rising temperatures, and sea-level rise. The objective of this study is to examine the efficacy of integrating ecological engineering principles into urban planning processes to enhance climate resilience, with a specific focus on promoting biodiversity, developing green infrastructure, and enhancing ecosystem services within urban environments. The findings highlight the importance of biodiversity conservation, green infrastructure development, and ecosystem service enhancement in promoting climate resilience within urban areas. The study concludes that incorporating ecological engineering principles into urban planning processes offers significant opportunities to enhance climate resilience and sustainability. By prioritizing nature-based solutions and adaptive strategies, cities can mitigate the impacts of climate change while fostering environmental conservation and human well-being. It is recommended that urban planners, policymakers, and stakeholders prioritize the integration of ecological engineering principles into urban planning frameworks. This includes incorporating biodiversity conservation measures, integrating green infrastructure into urban design, and promoting the provision of ecosystem services within urban landscapes.
