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 ...

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.

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,

Destination branding and co-creation: a service ecosystem perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Drawing on the service-dominant logic and the institutional theory, the paper aims to explore the value-creating mechanisms of branding in the destination context and the brand co-creation process at and between different levels of a service ecosystem ...

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 ...

Beyond valuation. Monetary aggregates for the SEEA-EA. The Italian proposal [PDF]

open access: yesOne Ecosystem, 2022
After years of experimentation, documents, meetings, consultations and negotiations, the SEEA EA re-ignited the debate on the monetary quantification of the value of nature.

Implications of mechanistic modeling of drought effects on growth and competition in forest landscape models

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
The incidence of drought is expected to increase worldwide as a factor structuring forested landscapes. Ecophysiological mechanisms are being added to Forest Landscape Models (FLMs) to increase their robustness to the novel environmental conditions of ...

Measuring and modeling waterlogging tolerance to predict the future for threatened lowland ash forests [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences
The emerald ash borer is an invasive pest causing widespread mortality of ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) across the USA. Broad-scale models can help identify management strategies to maintain lowland ash ecosystems.
