  • An environmental justice perspective on ecosystem services

    Open AccessJacqueline Loos, Felipe Benra et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2023Cited by: 8References: 112

    Mainstreaming of ecosystem service approaches has been proposed as one path toward sustainable development. Meanwhile, critics of ecosystem services question if the approach can account for the multiple values of ecosystems to diverse groups of people, or for aspects of inter- and intra-generational justice. In particular, an ecosystem service approach often overlooks power dimensions and capabilities that are core to environmental justice. This …

  • A framework to understand the social impacts of agricultural trade

    Open AccessMarije Schaafsma, Ilda Dreoni et al.ARTICLESustainable Development2022Cited by: 3References: 32

    While international trade in agricultural commodities can spur economic development especially where governance is strong, there are also concerns about the local impacts of commodity production and their distribution. Previous frameworks have primarily focused on trade effects on environmental conditions in production regions, as well as economic growth and food security. Instead, we develop a conceptual framework for understanding the impact of…

  • Developing multiscale and integrative nature–people scenarios using the Nature Futures Framework

    Open AccessLaura Pereira, Kathryn K Davies et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2020

    Scientists have repeatedly argued that transformative, multiscale global scenarios are needed as tools in the quest to halt the decline of biodiversity and achieve sustainability goals. As a first step towards achieving this, the researchers who participated in the scenarios and models expert group of the Intergovernmental Science‐Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) entered into an iterative, participatory process that …

  • Ecosystem services classification

    Open AccessAlessandra La Notte, Dalia D’amato et al.ARTICLEEcological Indicators2017

    Ecosystem services research faces several challenges stemming from the plurality of interpretations of classifications and terminologies. In this paper we identify two main challenges with current ecosystem services classification systems: i) the inconsistency across concepts, terminology and definitions, and; ii) the mix up of processes and end-state benefits, or flows and assets. Although different ecosystem service definitions and interpretati…

  • An indicator framework for assessing ecosystem services in support of the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020

    Open AccessJoachim Maes, Camino Liquete et al.ARTICLEEcosystem Services2016

    In the EU, the mapping and assessment of ecosystems and their services, abbreviated to MAES, is seen as a key action for the advancement of biodiversity objectives, and also to inform the development and implementation of related policies on water, climate, agriculture, forest, marine and regional planning. In this study, we present the development of an analytical framework which ensures that consistent approaches are used throughout the EU. It …

  • A blueprint for mapping and modelling ecosystem services

  • Mapping ecosystem services for policy support and decision making in the European Union

    Open AccessJoachim Maes, Benis N Egoh et al.ARTICLEEcosystem Services2012

    Mainstreaming ecosystem services into policy and decision making is dependent on the availability of spatially explicit information on the state and trends of ecosystems and their services. In particular, the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 addresses the need to account for ecosystem services through biophysical mapping and valuation. This paper reviews current mapping methods, identifies current knowledge gaps and provides the elements for a me…

  • An operational model for mainstreaming ecosystem services for implementation

    Open AccessRichard M Cowling, Benis N Egoh et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2008

    Research on ecosystem services has grown markedly in recent years. However, few studies are embedded in a social process designed to ensure effective management of ecosystem services. Most research has focused only on biophysical and valuation assessments of putative services. As a mission-oriented discipline, ecosystem service research should be user-inspired and user-useful, which will require that researchers respond to stakeholder needs from …
