A review of methods, data, and models to assess changes in the value of ecosystem services from land degradation and restoration (2016, background): “he best summary of these approaches is in Bagstad et al. (2013). able 5 is an extract from that paper, listing these models and tools long with brief descriptions.”
Twenty years of ecosystem services: How far have we come and how far do we still need to go? (2017, methodology): “…spatially explicit computer modelling is increasingly being used as a tool to address the complexity of interactions that lead to ecosystem services production (Higgins et al., 1997; Boumans et al., 2002; Costanza and Voinov, 2003; Bagstad et al., 2013; Boumans et al., 2015; Turner et al., 2016).”
Valuing natural capital and ecosystem services toward the goals of efficiency, fairness, and sustainability (2020, methodology): “For example, integrated, dynamic, spatially explicit computer modelling is increasingly being used as a tool to address the complexity of interactions that lead to ES production (Higgins et al., 1997; Boumans et al., 2002, 2015; Costanza and Voinov, 2003; Bagstad et al., 2013; Turner et al., 2016).”
Selecting methods for ecosystem service assessment: a decision tree approach (2017, methodology): “The number of methods and tools that have been developed for assessing ecosystem services in specific situations is multiplying (Bagstad et al., 2013).”
Ecosystem service potentials, flows and demands-concepts for spatial localisation, indication and quantification (2014, background): “Flows of ecosystem goods and services from SPUs to SBAs can take place via service connecting areas (SCAs; Syrbe & Walz 2012) or certain ‘carriers’ (Bagstad et al. 2013b).”
Assessing water ecosystem services for water resource management (2016, background): “…from land cover maps combined with scoring factors (Burkhard et al., 2009) to specific ecosystem service models based on ecological production functions (Sharp et al., 2015), and decision support tools (Bagstad et al., 2013 reviewed 17 tools for assessing and valuing ecosystem services).”
