OVERVIEW
Our overarching goal is to develop local and regional monitoring guidelines of ecosystem services across landscapes using a set of essential variables and monitoring designs that will allow comparison across landscapes.

KEY CONCEPTS
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
EXPECTED OUTCOMES We will propose a network framework to monitor ecosystem services that will allow us to determine the areas/landscapes with high risk of loss of ecosystem services accounting explicitly for uncertainty due to social pressures and global changes. We will provide a prototype of a dashboard for the national monitoring of ecosystem services. |
