Ecosystem Services Management
Ecosystem Services are increasingly considered a marketable forest product. New economic strategies and business models are being formed to buy and sell ecosystem services. Management of these services are a critical part in their functioning and in some cases, such as carbon crediting, are manditory under the conservation easement. The value of ecosystem services diminish if the land is not properly managed Case Studies Case studies highlight projects that work to manage systems supporting biodiversity, carbon sequestration, erosion control, nutrient cycling, pollination services, pooled ecosystem services, water quality, wildlife habitat, and other categories. Categorized here by a primary function, each business or project may also adress other economic, environmental, and community goals in forest communities. As such, you may find them cross-listed in other categories.
