Why do people go to nature? Enhancing the recognition and scope of cultural ecosystem services in landscape

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The cultural ecosystem services (CES) framework allows to systematically analyse non‐material human–nature relationships and can help to increase the recognition and scope of various intangible place‐based values. Although the amount of scientific literature addressing CES has increased over the last few decades, studies largely focus only on ...

Extended Strahler Ordering to Distinguish Mapped River Channels From Overland Flow Pathways and Consistently Compare Digital Networks

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digital networks are virtual representations of freshwater systems that provide important inputs to, and mapping of, river classifications, simulation models, and quantitative data analyses for policy, planning, and management. Strahler order has often been used to characterize network configuration and as a proxy indicator of river channel ...
