Ecosystem services

Humankind benefits in a multitude of ways from ecosystems. Collectively, these benefits are becoming known as ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are regularly involved in the provisioning of clean drinking water and the decomposition of wastes. While scientists and environmentalists have discussed ecosystem services implicitly for decades, the ecosystem services concept itself was popularized by the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) in the early 2000s. This grouped ecosystem services into four broad categories: provisioning, such as the production of food and water; regulating, such as the control of climate and disease; supporting, such as nutrient cycles and crop pollination; and cultural, such as spiritual and recreational benefits. To help inform decision-makers, many ecosystem services are being assigned economic values.

History

While the notion of human dependence on Earth’s ecosystems reaches to the start of homo sapiens’ existence, the term 'natural capital' was first coined by E.F. Schumacher in 1973 in his book Small is Beautiful . Recognition of how ecosystems could provide more complex services to mankind date back to at least Plato (c. 400 BC) who understood that deforestation could lead to soil erosion and the drying of springs. Modern ideas of ecosystem services probably began with Marsh in 1864 when he challenged the idea that Earth’s natural resources are unbounded by pointing out changes in soil fertility in the Mediterranean. His observations and cautions passed largely unnoticed at the time. It was not until the late 1940s that three key authors – Henry Fairfield Osborn, Jr,William Vogt, and Aldo Leopold – awakened and promoted recognition of human dependence on the environment.

  What are ecosystem services?

  In this animation, researchers from Eurac Research and their partners explain what ecosystem services are. Throughout the past decade, the topic of ecosystem services has become extremely popular in research, resulting in a huge variety of definitions and terms. For example, ecosystem services are defined as benefits people obtain from ecosystems; or the direct and indirect contributions of ecosystems to human well-being. In this animation, we show you few Alpine relevant ecosystem services such as pure groundwater that we use as drinking water, Alpine grasslands and meadows that provide biomass, CO2 sequestration by Alpine forests, or recreation opportunities.

  What Are Ecosystem Services?

  Our planet is blessed with many types of ecosystems, including terrestrial, marine, freshwater, forest, and grassland. An ecosystem is a dynamic community that comprises living organisms, such as microorganisms, plants, and animals, as well as non-living environments, each interacting with one another. Each ecosystem and its components (water, living organisms, soil) play a key role in maintaining our well-being and health. Human societies have benefited both directly and indirectly from nature for centuries. From clean air to drinking water, weather and climate control to natural crop pollination, nature provides us with critical services for our well-being. As you can see, we cannot survive without these goods, outputs, and processes that natural and managed ecosystems provide for us. ...

  Ecosystem services and why they are vital for humans | ACCIONA

  When we talk about the services we need for living, what do we think of? Water, electricity, gas, etc. Think, however, about services that are indispensable for humanity and the rest of biodiversity – and that are free as well! We call these ecosystem services, given to us by #nature, for nothing in exchange. Ecosystems render services that are essential for the quality and sustainability of the lives of people. In this sense, ecosystem services are benefits that #ecosystems bring human beings, so they can fulfil themselves in all respects. Thus the importance of widening the focus of caring for the planet from sustainability to #sustainableregeneration.

  Ecosystem Services (English)

  Biodiversity affects the well-being of society through the provision of ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are provided by the environment for free and include: the provision of food and raw materials, climate and water regulation, pollination, and recreation. Changes to ecosystems can affect the quality of our lives if ecosystem functions and services are altered. This video was originally produced by the Humboldt Institute in Colombia and was translated into English by the Socio-Economics Group at Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies.

  Ecosystem Services of the Blake Plateau’s Corals

  The Blake Plateau is a thriving deep-sea ecosystem roughly 100 miles offshore the United States’ southeastern coast. Recently discovered to hold the world’s largest expanse of deep-sea coral habitat, here deep-sea corals and Gulf Stream work together to recycle nutrients that helps feed the region’s wildlife. This animated video describes the Blake Plateau’s remarkable corals and the critical functions they bring the region, and our world.

  Ecosystem services : Biodiversity and nature provide countless benefits for humans

  Urbanization and intensive farming tap and fragment the natural environment Animal and vegetable species are hemmed in and fragilised Their survival depends on a continuous network of corridors and reserves of biodiversity : - green grid - blue grid - brown grid - black grid These grids also offer considerable benefits to humans "In an agricultural surrounding, hedges provide many ecosystem services (mettre à la ligne avant hedges)" They limit the erosion of the soil. They protect cultures from the wind. They host a fauna useful to agriculturers. They reduce the spread of pesticides. They provide local firewood A natural stream, connected with areas devoted to overflows, reduces the risk of floods. Its meanders and trees on its banks improve the water's quality It offers a natural area f...

When we talk about the services we need for living, what do we think of? Water, electricity, gas, etc. Think, however, about services that are indispensable for humanity and the rest of biodiversity – and that are free as well! We call these ecosystem services, given to us by #nature, for nothing in exchange. Ecosystems render services that are essential for the quality and sustainability of the lives of people. In this sense, ecosystem services are benefits that #ecosystems bring human beings, so they can fulfil themselves in all respects.

Biodiversity affects the well-being of society through the provision of ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are provided by the environment for free and include: the provision of food and raw materials, climate and water regulation, pollination, and recreation. Changes to ecosystems can affect the quality of our lives if ecosystem functions and services are altered. This video was originally produced by the Humboldt Institute in Colombia and was translated into English by the Socio-Economics Group at Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies.

  In this animation, researchers from Eurac Research and their partners explain what ecosystem services are. Throughout the past decade, the topic of ecosystem services has become extremely popular in research, resulting in a huge variety of definitions and terms. For example, ecosystem services are defined as benefits people obtain from ecosystems; or the direct and indirect contributions of ecosystems to human well-being. In this animation, we show you few Alpine relevant ecosystem services such as pure groundwater that we use as drinking water, Alpine grasslands and meadows that provide biomass, CO2 sequestration by Alpine forests, or recreation opportunities.

  Our planet is blessed with many types of ecosystems, including terrestrial, marine, freshwater, forest, and grassland. An ecosystem is a dynamic community that comprises living organisms, such as microorganisms, plants, and animals, as well as non-living environments, each interacting with one another. Each ecosystem and its components (water, living organisms, soil) play a key role in maintaining our well-being and health. Human societies have benefited both directly and indirectly from nature for centuries. From clean air to drinking water, weather and climate control to natural crop pollination, nature provides us with critical services for our well-being. As you can see, we cannot survive without these goods, outputs, and processes that natural and managed ecosystems provide for us. #ecosystems #ecosystemservices #nature Stock Video Source: elements.envato.com , pexels.com , pixabay.com Stock Image Source: elements.envato.com , pexels.com , pixabay.com Stock Music Source: elements.envato.com References: https://www.nature.com/articles/387253a0 https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rspb.2006.3721 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11111-013-0189-5 https://www.millenniumassessment.org/documents/document.356.aspx.pdf Original Article Link: https://www.scienceabc.com/nature/what-are-ecosystem-services.html If you wish to buy/license this video, please write to us at admin@scienceabc.com.

The Blake Plateau is a thriving deep-sea ecosystem roughly 100 miles offshore the United States’ southeastern coast. Recently discovered to hold the world’s largest expanse of deep-sea coral habitat, here deep-sea corals and Gulf Stream work together to recycle nutrients that helps feed the region’s wildlife. This animated video describes the Blake Plateau’s remarkable corals and the critical functions they bring the region, and our world.

Urbanization and intensive farming tap and fragment the natural environment Animal and vegetable species are hemmed in and fragilised Their survival depends on a continuous network of corridors and reserves of biodiversity : - green grid - blue grid - brown grid - black grid These grids also offer considerable benefits to humans "In an agricultural surrounding, hedges provide many ecosystem services (mettre à la ligne avant hedges)" They limit the erosion of the soil. They protect cultures from the wind. They host a fauna useful to agriculturers. They reduce the spread of pesticides. They provide local firewood A natural stream, connected with areas devoted to overflows, reduces the risk of floods. Its meanders and trees on its banks improve the water's quality It offers a natural area favorable to recreation education, observation, relaxation. Wetlands also are highly useful. They absorb an excess of water in case of flood, make up reserves of water in times of drought, purify water thanks to their plants. Reduce the greenhouse effect by sequestering carbon into the soil. Forests too are carbon sinks and provide a number of services. They produce wood are valued in the picking season and for leisure time. "In urban areas also nature plays an important part". The soil absorbs and sifts rainwater It enables us to grow fruit and vegetables. In town vegetation improves people's living environment fights against the "urban heat island" effect, cools down the town's temperature Light pollution affects us. The day/night cycle is essential to sleep and health and enables us to watch the starry sky.

Ecosystem services

Humankind benefits in a multitude of ways from ecosystems. Collectively, these benefits are becoming known as ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are regularly involved in the provisioning of clean drinking water and the decomposition of wastes. While scientists and environmentalists have discussed ecosystem services implicitly for decades, the ecosystem services concept itself was popularized by the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) in the early 2000s. This grouped ecosystem services into four broad categories: provisioning, such as the production of food and water; regulating, such as the control of climate and disease; supporting, such as nutrient cycles and crop pollination; and cultural, such as spiritual and recreational benefits. To help inform decision-makers, many ecosystem services are being assigned economic values.

History

While the notion of human dependence on Earth’s ecosystems reaches to the start of homo sapiens’ existence, the term 'natural capital' was first coined by E.F. Schumacher in 1973 in his book Small is Beautiful . Recognition of how ecosystems could provide more complex services to mankind date back to at least Plato (c. 400 BC) who understood that deforestation could lead to soil erosion and the drying of springs. Modern ideas of ecosystem services probably began with Marsh in 1864 when he challenged the idea that Earth’s natural resources are unbounded by pointing out changes in soil fertility in the Mediterranean. His observations and cautions passed largely unnoticed at the time. It was not until the late 1940s that three key authors – Henry Fairfield Osborn, Jr,William Vogt, and Aldo Leopold – awakened and promoted recognition of human dependence on the environment.
