Targeting perennial vegetation in agricultural landscapes for enhancing ecosystem services
Over the past century, agricultural landscapes worldwide have increasingly been managed for the primary purpose of producing food, while other diverse ecosystem services potentially available from these landscapes have often been undervalued and diminished. The incorporation of relatively small amounts of perennial vegetation in strategic locations within agricultural landscapes dominated by an...
متن کاملUrban forests and pollution mitigation: analyzing ecosystem services and disservices.
The purpose of this paper is to integrate the concepts of ecosystem services and disservices when assessing the efficacy of using urban forests for mitigating pollution. A brief review of the literature identifies some pollution mitigation ecosystem services provided by urban forests. Existing ecosystem services definitions and typologies from the economics and ecological literature are adapted...
متن کاملSustaining ecosystem services in cultural landscapes
Classical conservation approaches focus on the man-made degradation of ecosystems and tend to neglect the socialecological values that human land uses have imprinted on many environments. Throughout the world, ingenious land-use practices have generated unique cultural landscapes, but these are under pressure from agricultural intensification, land abandonment, and urbanization. In recent years...
متن کاملEcosystem Services in Agricultural Landscapes: A Spatially Explicit Approach to Support Sustainable Soil Management
Soil degradation has been associated with a lack of adequate consideration of soil ecosystem services. We demonstrate a broadly applicable method for mapping changes in the supply of two priority soil ecosystem services to support decisions about sustainable land-use configurations. We used a landscape-scale study area of 302 km(2) in northern Victoria, south-eastern Australia, which has been c...
متن کاملMaximizing arthropod-mediated ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes: the role of native plants
www.frontiersinecology.org © The Ecological Society of America C of beneficial arthropods in agricultural landscapes is increasingly justified based on the value of the services they provide to society. The annual value of natural enemies and native pollinators to agriculture has recently been estimated at nearly $8 billion in the US alone (Losey and Vaughn 2006). These arthropod-mediated ecosy...
