Study on extra services of integrated agricultural landscapes: A case study conducted on the Coastal Bench Terrace System

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
The unit area value-based method has been widely used in ecosystem service value assessment research. This method assumes that the area of landscape elements and their ecosystem service values are linearly related.

Extrapolating plot-scale CO2 and ozone enrichment experimental results to novel conditions and scales using mechanistic modeling

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2018
Introduction The Aspen-FACE experiment was an 11-year study of the effect of elevated CO2 and ozone (alone and in combination) on the growth of model aspen communities (pure aspen, aspen-birch, and aspen-maple) in the field in northern Wisconsin, USA ...

Simulating Growth and Competition on Wet and Waterlogged Soils in a Forest Landscape Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Changes in CO2 concentration and climate are likely to alter disturbance regimes and competitive outcomes among tree species, which ultimately can result in shifts of species and biome boundaries. Such changes are already evident in high latitude forests,

Effects of Long-Term Land Use and Land Cover Changes on Ecosystem Service Values: An Example from the Central Rift Valley, Ethiopia

open access: yesLand, 2021
Changes in land use and land cover (LULC) are the leading contributors to the decline and loss of ecosystem services in the world. The present study covered the Central Rift Valley lakes basin in Ethiopia, focusing on the valley floor and the East and ...

Marine ecosystem services [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2017
Coastal and marine environments can begin up to 100 kilometers inland, extend to the continental shelf, and include ocean systems with waters up to 50 meters in depth. The distinct marine ecosystems found in these environments include estuarine and coastal wetlands, such as marshes and mangroves, sand beaches and dunes, seagrass beds, and coral and ...
