The insurance value of forests in supplying climate regulation
(Universidad de Chile, Facultad de Economía y Negocios, 2012)
This brief paper proposes an analytical method for estimating the economic
value of forest ecosystems in supplying climate regulation. If, as argued by several
authors, forests ecosystems serve as hedging against climatic ...
The economic value of forests in supplying local climate regulation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
Several authors have argued that forest ecosystems serve as a hedge against extreme climatic events at a local scale. Consequently, the local climate regulation ecosystem services provided by forests can be economically ...
Urban ecosystem services in South America: a systematic review
(MDPI, 2022)
Nature within cities provides benefits for people known as urban ecosystem services. An assessment of urban ecosystem services is growing in South America, a biodiverse and highly urbanized region. To synthesize this growing ...
Identification of ecosystems services, associated to Caño Bugre Department of Córdoba Colombia

Ecosystem services and ecosystem degradation: environmentalist’s expectation
(Elsevier, 2020)
In this article, we explore the connections between ecosystem degradation and ecosystem services. We discuss an operational definition of ecosystem degradation and applied it to the terrestrial ecosystem of Chiloe Island ...
Well-being and the use of ecosystem services by rural households of the Río Cruces watershed, southern Chile
(Elsevier, 2016)
© 2016 Elsevier B.V. The main objective of this article is to analyse the relationship between human well-being (HWB) and ecosystem services (ES). We studied the Río Cruces watershed (Chile) as a social-ecological system ...
Widespread and major losses in multiple ecosystem services as a result of agricultural expansion in the Argentine Chaco
(Wiley, 2020-09-09)
1.Where agriculture expands into tropical and subtropical forests, social–ecological impacts are typically strong. However, where and how frontier development impacts on ecosystem functioning and services is often unclear, ...

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 ...
