Landscapes' capacities to provide ecosystem services - A concept for land-cover based assessments
Landscapes differ in their capacities to provide ecosystem goods and services, which are the benefits humans obtain from nature. Structures and functions of ecosystems needed to sustain the provision of ecosystem services are altered by various human activities. In this paper, a concept for the assessment of multiple ecosystem services is proposed as a basis for discussion and further development of a respective evaluation instrument. Using quant…
Systemic Risks of Genetically Modified Organisms in Crop Production
The GeneRisk research consortium analysed the implications of the cultivation of genetically modified organisms (GMO). The risks involved transcend the borders of very different systems. Therefore, they need to be analysed using interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches. One central scientific issue was the assessment of the spatial implications of GMO cultivation for areas of large extent, examining Bt-maize as the currently most releva…
Ökologische Integrität
Sustainable Development stresses the relevance of ecological systems for fulfilling social and economic development objectives. It demands a risk-averse treatment of the global life-support systems in environmental decision-making, e.g., in sustainable landscape management. While specific sustainability guidelines exist for many facets of the human-environment interaction, management guidelines are lacking for a pro-active, prophylactic treatment…
