Modellering af økosystemtjenester og biodiversitetsindikatorer – ny rapport

By aug 17, 2017
Lige før sommer udgav DCE, Århus Universitet en ny rapport der fokuserer på metoder til modellering af økosystemtjenester og biodiversitetsindikatorer. Rapporten præsenterer et analyseredskab, der er udviklet med henblik på at kunne anskueliggøre samspillet mellem ændringer i en række økosystemtjenester når landbrugs- eller skovarealer tages ud af drift. Samspillet mellem økosystemtjenester kan have betydning for om det er muligt at opnå synergieffekter. Rapporten har anvendt Limfjordens opland som undersøgelsesområde. Analysen i rapporten omfatter følgende udvalgte økosystemtjenester: Fødevareproduktion, træproduktion, regulering af vandkvalitet i form af tilbageholdelse af kvælstof til Limfjorden, klimaregulering i form af kulstofbinding, jagt og rekreation. Desuden analyseres det også,…

Ny Ramsar-rapport om kystnære marine økosystemtjenester

By feb 22, 2017
En ny nordisk rapport om kystnære økosystemers økosystemtjenester har set dagens lys. Rapporten er udgivet af Nordisk Ministerråd: ”Four key ecosystems have been selected to be examined in this report. These are kelp forests, eelgrass meadows, blue mussel beds and shallow bays and inlets. For kelp forest and mussels, the economic potential of cultivation is also considered. The study has focused on examining these coastal values through selected examples, and recommend possible applications for the management of the Nordic coastal areas and their resources. The study also identifies key knowledge gaps and suggests where further work should be emphasized.”
