Land use intensity indirectly affects ecosystem services mainly through plant functional identity in a temperate forest
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-05)
Land‐use change is known to affect biodiversity, and there is increasing concern regarding how these changes may impact the provision of ecosystem services. Although functional composition (diversity and identity) could ...
Identification of ecosystems services, associated to Caño Bugre Department of Córdoba Colombia
(Universidad de La Salle. Facultad de Ingeniería. Ingeniería Civil, 2018)
Mapping the provision of cultural ecosystem services in large cities: the case of The Andean piedmont in Santiago, Chile
(Elsevier, 2021)
Large cities are both centers of demand for cultural ecosystem services (CES) and a source of environmental
impacts. Assessing CES yields information to reduce the vulnerability of these services to such environmental
impacts ...

(Elsevier B.V., 2019-05-10)
In the Anthropocene era, ecosystem productivity decreasing due to Global temperatures increasing and the biodiversity loss. Thus, are imperative that natural areas be explored under sustainable precepts, respecting and ...
Incorporating plant functional diversity effects in ecosystem service assessments
(National Academy of Sciences, 2007-12)
Global environmental change affects the sustained provision of a wide set of ecosystem services. Although the delivery of ecosystem services is strongly affected by abiotic drivers and direct land use effects, it is also ...
Ecosystem services research in Latin America: The state of the art
(Elsevier Science, 2012-12)
Ecosystem services science has developed at a fast rate in Latin America, a region characterized by a high biological and cultural diversity, strong emphasis in foreign investment, and high socioeconomic inequities. Here ...
Role of reef-building, ecosystem engineering polychaetes in shallow water ecosystems
(MDPI AG, 2019-09)
Although the effect of ecosystem engineers in structuring communities is common in several systems, it is seldom as evident as in shallow marine soft-bottoms. These systems lack abiotic three-dimensional structures but ...
Impacts of forest cover change on ecosystem services in high Andean mountains
(ELSEVIER, 2015-01-01)
Land conversion affects the delivery of ecosystem goods and services. In this study, we used a 50 years time series of land cover maps to assess the potential impacts of forest cover changes on ecosystem services. A ...
