Science in support of ecosystem-based management for the US West Coast and beyond (2010, background): “Thus far, InVEST has been developed exclusively for terrestrial settings (Nelson et al., 2009), but development of marine models is underway, focusing on fish production, coastal protection and recreation (Ruckelshaus and Guerry, 2009).”
The Impact of Land-Use Change on Ecosystem Services, Biodiversity and Returns to Landowners: A Case Study in the State of Minnesota (2011, background): “Like Nelson et al. (2009), however, we find a lack of concordance in the ranking of alternatives between net social benefits and the market value of returns to landowners, which suggests that there is a large role for policy in land-use decisions, a point that we return to in the conclusions.”
Integrating ecosystem-service tradeoffs into land-use decisions (2012, background): “A necessary step forward to mainstream ecosystem services is the ability to factor multiple ecosystem services into local and regional land-use planning (18, 19).”
Impacts of Land-Use and Land-Cover Changes on Water Yield: A Case Study in Jing-Jin-Ji, China (2018, methodology): “Based on the different LULC scenarios, InVEST provides a way of evaluating WY from an ecosystem services perspective [16].”
A blueprint for mapping and modelling ecosystem services (2013, methodology): “At the simplest level, established relationships between land cover types and carbon stocks are used to approximate total carbon in the land system (Egoh et al., 2008; Nelson et al., 2009).”
Global use of ecosystem service models (2016, methodology): “InVEST, developed by the Natural Capital Project, provides a suite of software models that can be used to map and value ES, and compare trade-offs among development alternatives (Kareiva et al., 2011; Nelson et al., 2009).”
Projected land-use change impacts on ecosystem services in the United States (2014, background): “13 and 15) and applied to at least some services to illustrate how to rank alternatives (16).”
The tradeoff and synergy between ecosystem services in the Grain-for-Green areas in Northern Shaanxi, China (2014, background): “Likewise, a spatially explicit examination of the perormance of biodiversity conservation and ESs showed only a small radeoff among ESs during their development (Nelson et al., 2009).”
Landscapes' Capacities to Provide Ecosystem Services - a Concept for Land-Cover Based Assessments (2009, methodology): “The value or benefit transfer method, in which the valuation results of ecosystem services at one study site are transferred to others, has been criticised for neglecting spatial differences of habitat types (Tallis & Polasky 2009, Nelson et al. 2009).”
Core concepts of spatial prioritisation in systematic conservation planning (2012, background): “As conservation competes with other land uses in the real-world, many studies have investigated how socio-economic and political factors affect conservation solutions (Naidoo et al., 2006; Wilson et al., 2007; Nelson et al., 2009; Adams, Pressey & Naidoo, 2010).”
Synergies and trade-offs between ecosystem services in Costa Rica (2013, background): “A few studies used spatial and dynamic approaches (Nelson et al. 2008, 2009; Haines-Young et al. 2012; Willemen et al. 2012).”
