Thomas |This paper presents a global synthesis of economic values for ecosystem services provided by 15 terrestrial and marine biomes. Information from over 1,300 studies, yielding over 9,400 value estimates in monetary units, has been collected and org[...]Article
F. Alcon ; J.A. Albaladejo-García ; V. Martínez-García ; E.S. Rossi ; E. Blasi ; H. Lehtonen ; J.M. Martínez-Paz ; J.A. Zabala |Crop diversification can enhance farm economic sustainability while reducing the negative impact on the environment and ecosystem services related. Despite the market and non-market benefits of crop diversification, monocropping is a widely used[...]Article
Agricultural landscapes are linked to many functions that benefit human well-being, with a focus on food production. These functions are intrinsically linked with the management choices made by farmers, which are reflected in different farming s[...]E-Book
H.S. Jatav ; V.D. Rajput ; T. Minkina ; E.D. van Hullebusch ; A. Dutta | Singapour [Singapour] : Springer | Sustainable Development and Biodiversity | 2024This edited book brings out comprehensive insights on agro-forestry systems to cope up climate change globally. The main essence of this book is to unfurl the positive sides of agri-silvipastoral system to reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) and temp[...]Article
Linear landscape elements, such as field margins, are agricultural practices whose adoption is supported by agri-environmental climate measures (AECMs). AECMs are meant to improve ecological conditions on farms and surrounding areas. The effecti[...]Article
D. Vackárová ; H. Medková ; P. Krpec ; J. Weinzettel |Agricultural activities utilize provisioning ecosystem services while degrading nature?s contributions to people of natural ecosystems. These impacts are partly driven by international trade and consumption abroad. The objective of this Communic[...]Article
The present study is inspired by a current scientific debate around the economic valuation of soil ecosystem services. It details the estimation of the services identified in the watershed O.Lachbal and develops projections in order to analyse t[...]Article
This study aims to model hydrological ecosystem services provided by forests and explore how they can be captured in an ecosystem accounting framework. We test a dynamic GIS-based hydrological model to quantify and map key hydrological ecosystem[...]Article
In the last two centuries, land-use change (LUC) has been the most important direct change driver for terrestrial ecosystems. In contrast with the consequent ecosystem degradation, forward-looking spatial policies and target landscape and land-u[...]Article
High Nature Value farmland (HNVf) represents a rural landscape characterized by extensive farming practices. These lands not only deliver vital ecosystem services (ES) but also serve as significant harbors of biodiversity, underscoring their cri[...]Article
E. Dorr ; B. Goldstein ; C. Aubry ; B. Gabrielle ; A. Horvath |There is increasing interest in evaluating the environmental performance of urban agriculture (UA), primarily using life cycle assessment (LCA). However, LCA has been applied to UA inconsistently, making it difficult to confidently compare or dr[...]Article
The present study aims to support the Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) implementation in Greece, by synthesizing an indicator that could be used for abiotic attribute assessments and specifically for geodiversity. S[...]Article

Vranken |Many farm-management practices focus on maximizing production, while others better reconcile production with the regulation of ecological processes and sociocultural identity through the provisioning of ecosystem services (ESs). Though many stud[...]Article
P. Pradhan ; M. Callaghan ; Y. Hu ; K. Dahal ; C. Hunecke ; F. Reusswig ; H. Lotze-Campen ; J.P. Kropp |Urban agriculture, including peri-urban farming, can nourish around one billion city dwellers and provide multiple social, economic, and environmental benefits. However, these benefits depend on various factors and are debated. Therefore, we use[...]Article
Agricultural stakeholders disagree on how to put the general concept of sustainability into practice. But most recognize the need for assessment methods to characterize the current situation and gauge progress yet to be made. Many sustainability[...]Article

(Agron Sustain Dev 35:1259-1281, 2015) highlighted a missing tool for studying and improving the performance of cropping systems in the transition to highly diversified agriculture. In response, this paper proposes a concept for desi[...]Article

Belo |The Montado is a silvopastoral system with a tree cover of predominantly Quercus suber but also Quercus rotundifolia, where cattle or sheep graze the understory. It occupies more than one million hectares in southern Portugal, and a similar land[...]Article
We can pursue a more resilient and sustainable future if both agriculture and the food system evolve driven by a new model based on agroecology. By applying ecological principles, agroecological farming adapts to local resources, closes biomass [...]Article

However, ongoing land-use change and intensification seriously affect the abundance, diversity an[...]Article
Mediterranean wetlands provide many ecosystem services to humans and other organisms. However, these services are being increasingly damaged. The prioritization of ecosystem services is essential to start a decision-making process focused on env[...]Article
Ecosystems in rural areas play a crucial role in promoting human well-being and economic development by providing essential resources such as food, water, raw materials, and energy. Furthermore, rural ecosystems offer various services, such as r[...]Article
