Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 119-132, September 2023., 2023 Benefits derived from leisure and recreational, and wildlife cultural ecosystem services (CES) were predominantly safeguarded by nature reserves. In contrast, folk and custom CES and spiritual and religious CES were less reliant on these reserves due to intrinsic community‐based protection. Abstract Cultural ecosystem services (CES) play a pivotal role

Spatial mismatch between wild bee diversity hotspots and protected areas
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Wild bees are critical for multiple ecosystem functions but are currently threatened. Understanding the determinants of the spatial distribution of wild bee diversity is a major research gap for their conservation. We modeled wild bee α and β taxonomic and functional diversity in Switzerland to uncover countrywide diversity patterns and ...

Integrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 43-61, March 2023., 2023 We apply an integrative perspective to modelling current and future land‐use change in Kuantan, Malaysia, a location with highly biodiverse forests, and also a hotspot of land‐use change. The region is representative of the types of development challenges faced by countries in Southeast Asia, which are also biodiversity hotspots.

Effects of Land Use Change on Imbalance in Ecosystem Services:A Case Study of Laizhou Bay Coastal Zone [PDF]
, 2016 以莱州湾海岸带为研究区,基于2000年、2005年、2010年和2014年多时相土地利用数据,应用生态系统服务价值评估,逐层剖析土地利用变化对生态系统服务失衡特征的影响。结果表明:莱州湾海岸带供水与空气组分调节服务呈负值,2000~2014年,生态系统服务总价值丧失43%(147亿美元/a),生态系统服务多样性降低甚至丧失,呈向海性,围填海造成162亿美元生态损失。土地利用变化方式是造成生态失衡的主因,主要包括:交通工矿、盐田、养殖及城镇扩张,滩涂、河口湿地、耕地被侵占。滩涂和河口湿地减少,导致废物处理、
