The Base Value of the Ecological Compensation Standard in Transboundary River Basins: A Case Study of the Lancang–Mekong River Basin.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Water (20734441). Aug2023, Vol. 15 Issue 15, p2809. 19p.
Abstract: The ecological compensation standard in transboundary river basins should be determined by the basin countries through negotiation on the basis of the base value of the ecological compensation standard. This paper calculated the base value range of the...
Comparing Stakeholders' Economic Values for the Institution of Payments for Ecosystem Services in Protected Areas.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Land (2012). Jul2023, Vol. 12 Issue 7, p1332. 17p.
Abstract: In order to maintain the provision of high-quality ecosystem services in wetlands, it is important to protect the ecosystems through the designation of protected areas. However, the process of designating protected areas can potentially give rise to so...
Change and Tradeoff/Synergy Analysis of Watershed Ecosystem Services: A Case Study of Qinghai Lake Basin.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Sustainability (2071-1050). Aug2023, Vol. 15 Issue 15, p11711. 15p.
Abstract: Understanding the tradeoffs/synergies between ecosystems is crucial to effective watershed ecosystem management and sustainable development. In this study, the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) and Carnegie Ames Stanford...
Influences of Ecological Restoration Programs on Ecosystem Services in Sandy Areas, Northern China.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Remote Sensing. Jul2023, Vol. 15 Issue 14, p3519. 17p.
Abstract: Ecosystem services (ESs) are important for supporting human development. However, a changing climate and anthropogenic impacts are resulting in the degradation of dryland ecosystems to varying degrees. While there has been the global implementation of ...
Perceptions of Ecosystem Services and Climate Change in the Communities Surrounding Mt. Kenya and Mt. Elgon, Kenya.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Sustainability (2071-1050). Jul2023, Vol. 15 Issue 14, p11470. 20p.
Abstract: Local observations of climate change can be a critical resource for understanding the impacts of climate change, particularly in data-scarce areas. This study examines local observations of climate change in two montane areas of Kenya- Mt. Kenya and Mt...
Ecosystem Services Supply–Demand Matching and Its Driving Factors: A Case Study of the Shanxi Section of the Yellow River Basin, China.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Sustainability (2071-1050). Jul2023, Vol. 15 Issue 14, p11016. 18p.
Abstract: Understanding the supply–demand relationships and driving mechanisms of ecosystem services (ES) provides a theoretical foundation for sustainable ecosystem management. This study utilized Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST...
Spatial–Temporal Changes and Prediction of Carbon Storage in the Tibetan Plateau Based on PLUS-InVEST Model.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Forests (19994907). Jul2023, Vol. 14 Issue 7, p1352. 24p.
Abstract: The changes in the recent and future spatial–temporal patterns of carbon storage of the Tibetan Plateau and its dominant factors in different periods were unclear, and were conducive to optimizing the spatial layout of land. Exploring the spatial and t...
