Optimal design of agricultural landscapes for pollination services (2008, background): “For example, China is conserving forests for flood control, New York City is investing in sustainable farming and forestry for water purification, and Costa Rica pays landowners for biodiversity, scenic beauty, carbon storage, and water purification (Daily & Ellison 2002).”
Using return‐on‐investment to guide restoration: a case study from Hawaii (2008, background): “Making restoration economically attractive remains an important, but challenging, goal to expand restoration projects, particularly on private lands (Daily & Ellison 2002; Milton et al. 2003; Schuyt et al. 2007).”
Payments for Ecosystem Services in Mexico: Nature, Neoliberalism, Social Movements, and the State (2010, background): “Ecosystem services (ES) are defined as ecosystem functions that are beneficial to humans: carbon sequestration, provision of clean and sufficient water supplies, and biodiversity conservation (Costanza et al. 1997; Daily and Ellison 2002).”
Fresh tracks in the forest: assessing incipient payments for environmental services initiatives in Bolivia (2005, background): “In an effort to prevent such overexploitation, some analysts and practitioners have called for the incorporation of environmental-service provision into standard economic valuations and, conversely, the use of direct incentives in conservation (Pagiola and Platais 2002; Daily and Ellison 2002).”
Countryside Biogeography of Tropical Butterflies (2003, background): “Comparable incentive-based efforts are emerging in other countries and, in some prominent cases, are being implemented in countryside regions with virtually no remaining native habitat (Salzman et al. 2001; Daily & Ellison 2002).”
Payments for Ecosystem Services: Rife With Problems and Potential—For Transformation Towards Sustainability (2017, background): “Innovations to economic systems have tremendous potential for positive change and are absolutely essential for sustainability (Daily & Ellison, 2002; Helm, 2015; Chan et al., in press).”
Determining when payments are an effective policy approach to ecosystem service provision (2010, background): “However, poor agricultural practices were compromising the clean water (Daily and Ellison, 2002).”
Countryside Biogeography of Neotropical Mammals: Conservation Opportunities in Agricultural Landscapes of Costa Rica (2003, background): “Fourth, motivated by the first three points, investments are being made worldwide in the conservation of countryside (Daily & Ellison 2002).”
Ecosystem Services in Decision Making: Time to Deliver (2009, background): “…from around the world – from pioneering local leaders to government bureaucracies, and from traditional cultures to major corporations (eg a new experi- mental wing of Goldman Sachs; Daily and Ellison 2002; Bhagwat and Rutte 2006; Kareiva and Marvier 2007; Ostrom et al. 2007; Goldman et al. 2008).”
The Nature That Capital Can See: Science, State, and Market in the Commodification of Ecosystem Services (2006, background): “Though still a small industry it is experiencing geometrical growth in membership, and has captured the imagination of those who promote market-led environmental policy (Daily and Ellison, 2002; Environmental Law Institute, 1993; 2002).”
Land-Change Science and Political Ecology: Similarities, Differences, and Implications for Sustainability Science (2008, background): “Part of LCS, for example, examines land management practices on the structure and function of ecosystems and landscapes, in which a large number of environmental goods and services may be hidden from the land manager (72, 85) and which affect and are affected by changes in Earth’s system (Table 1, B”
