Can tropical nature reserves provide and protect cultural ecosystem services? A case study in Xishuangbanna, China 热带自然保护区能否提供和保护生态系统文化服务？来自中国西双版纳的案例研究

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

Rapid assessment of insect pollination services to inform decision‐making

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 4, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Pollinator declines have prompted efforts to assess how land‐use change affects insect pollinators and pollination services in agricultural landscapes. Yet many tools to measure insect pollination services require substantial landscape‐scale data and technical expertise.

Tropical and subtropical Asia's valued tree species under threat

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 3, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Tree diversity in Asia's tropical and subtropical forests is central to nature‐based solutions. Species vulnerability to multiple threats, which affect provision of ecosystem services, is poorly understood. We conducted a region‐wide, spatially explicit assessment of the vulnerability of 63 socioeconomically important tree species to ...

Pollinator monitoring more than pays for itself

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 1, Page 44-57, January 2021., 2021
We evaluated the full costs of running pollinator monitoring schemes against the economic benefits to research and society they provide. The annual costs of monitoring are <0.02% of the economic value of pollination services that would be lost after a 30% decline in pollination services.

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、

海岸建筑后退线设置方法与实践研究 [PDF]

, 2018
海岸建筑后退线设置是保护海岸带区域生态环境,保障海岸区域建筑安全及维护海岸景观的重要规划手段。本文以龙海市海岸带为研究对象,考虑海岸侵蚀、海洋灾害等自然因素的基础上,结合生态系统服务价值,确定龙海市不同岸线类海岸建筑后退线的距离,为海岸带空间规划提供基础依据。结果确定龙海市不同岸线类型的海岸建筑后退线的距离分别为砂质岸线240 m、淤泥质岸线240 m、基岩岸线30 m、生物岸线220 m、人工岸线30 m。福建省属公益类科研院所基本科研专项(2014R1006-2 ...

山西省城镇化与生态系统服务时空相关性及空间效应分析

Shuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2022
为深入探究城镇化对生态系统服务价值的驱动因素以及生态系统服务空间溢出效应, 以山西省县域为研究单元, 基于2000—2018年土地利用数据、社会经济数据构建生态系统服务价值和城镇化水平综合评价体系, 通过双变量空间自相关分析县域城镇化与生态系统服务价值相关性的空间特征。结果表明: 研究期间山西省生态系统服务价值整体呈下降趋势, 城镇化综合水平虽有显著提高, 但整体偏低。研究区城镇化和生态系统服务价值之间存在显著的负相关关系, 呈"U"形发展趋势。空间计量模型结果表明, 城镇化率 ...
