Watershed services of tropical forests: from hydrology to economic valuation to integrated analysis (2009, background): “They are also receiving more global attention because tropical forests are major repositories of biodiversity [3], leading to interest in identifying win-win situations or trade-offs between biodiversity and watershed services [4].”
Ecological functions and ecosystem services provided by Scarabaeinae dung beetles (2008, background): “Finally, the economic value of dung beetle communities is an important and exciting area for future study (Mertz et al., 2007).”
Dummy caterpillars as a simple method to assess predation rates on invertebrates in a tropical agroecosystem (2009, background): “, 2007), mainly (but not only) because in those agroecosystems, external resources are often not available to substitute for ecosystem services, especially in rural communities (Mertz et al., 2007).”
Arthropods as bioindicators of sustainable forest management, with a focus on plantation forests (2009, background): “The importance of biodiversity conservation has been recognized worldwide (Kerr, 1999; Bonn and Gaston, 2005; Humphrey, 2005), and the extinction of biodiversity elements can cause impoverished ecosystem functioning (Kremen, 2005; Larsen et al., 2005; Mertz et al., 2007).”
Ecosystem Services: Origins, Contributions, Pitfalls, and Alternatives (2013, background): “If so, why do most studies still talk of ‘biodiversity and ecosystem services’ as if they were two distinct (even if operationally overlapping) goals of environmental management (see Balvanera et al. 2001; Daily 2001; Singh 2002; Chan et al. 2006; Mertz et al. 2007; Martínez et al. 2009)?”
