The spatiotemporal changes of the grazed Greek landscapes in the last 75 years resemble those evidenced in most parts of the northern Mediterranean region, where woody vegetation encroached on open areas changing landscape structure and diversit[...]Article
M. Ruberto ; G. Branca ; S. Troiano ; R. Zucaro |The Water Framework Directive (WFD) has introduced economic principles for water resource management, including the environmental cost recovery on the basis of the polluter pays principle (PPP).

C. Vidaller ; C. Malik ; T. Dutoit |Grazing is well-known to shape plant populations and plant communities and to affect several compartment characteristics of grazed ecosystems. Semi-natural grassland conservation depends on the maintenance of traditional extensive grazing system[...]Article
Agricultural modernization brought about a significant land use change, with the expansion both of crops that could be more easily mechanized and of woodland and natural areas. Meanwhile, to increase the cultivated area, the farmland fabric of p[...]Article
C. Castellano ; D. Bruno ; F.A. Comin ; J.M. Rey Benayas ; A. Masip ; J.J.

This biodiversity supports several ecological processes crucially involved in the supp[...]Article
Protected areas offer unique opportunities for recreation, but the non-market nature of these benefits presents a significant challenge when trying to represent value in the decision-making processes. The most common techniques to value recreati[...]Article
Ecosystem services (ES) clarifies nature's contribution to human in an intuitive way, and aims at fully recognizing the importance of nature in the decision-making of social-ecological system management. However, in order to improve the ability [...]Article
We used Cyprus as a model to link the WaterEnergyFoodClimate (WEFC) nexus indicators (e.g., carbon and water footprints) to the ecosystem services (ES) provided by 39 mixed orchards (stone fruits and nuts) on organic (Org) and conventional (C[...]Article
D. Marino ; M. Palmieri ; A. Marucci ; S. Pili |Landscape composition has a crucial role in determining ecosystem functioning and human well-being. Human activities (e.g. urban expansion or agricultural intensification) have strongly modified the natural environment and ecosystem integrity. T[...]Article
Decision-making processes to ensure sustainability of complex agro-ecosystems must simultaneously accommodate production goals, environmental soundness, and social relevancy. This means that besides environmental indicators and human activities,[...]Article
Coastal wetlands are among the most productive and valuable ecosystems worldwide, although one of the main factors affecting their survival is the coexistence between agriculture and conservation. This paper analyses the complex balance between [...]Article
Global scenario-based modelling efforts to support biodiversity policies typically consider agriculture only as a pressure factor. Current scenarios typically include the expansion of protected areas combined with higher agricultural productivit[...]Article
Spain is the country with the most biosphere reserves (BRs) in the world. The aim of this paper is to investigate why BRs have come to proliferate to such a degree in Spain and why there is a gap between UNESCOs framework and the practicalities[...]Article
