Towards systematic conservation planning adapted to the local flow of ecosystem services

摘要: Ecosystem services (ES) are increasingly included in conservation assessment worldwide to sustain their ability fulfill human needs. Due the instrumental value inherent ES, priority areas for should be selected based on capacity both ensure an available supply and meet beneficiary demands. However, such a methodology has yet developed. Aiming adapt systematic planning procedures include we conducted case study eastern Canada focusing ten ES 16 wetland types. We first delimited accessible use from total biophysical mapped demand each ES. Secondly, assembled networks targeting compared them with either or supply. found that only resulted selecting sites not may up three times less efficient fulfilling demands of beneficiaries local flow Thus, considering fails position reserves where is likely most useful. Setting targets could therefore help achieve objectives.
