Valuing Supporting Soil Ecosystem Services in Agriculture: A Natural Capital Approach

Creator:

Brady, Mark V., Hedlund, Katarina, Cong, Rong-Gang, Hemerik, Lia, Hotes, Stefan, Machado, Stephen, Mattsson, Lennart, Schulz, Elke, and Thomsen, Ingrid K.

Abstract:

Soil biodiversity through its delivery of ecosystem functions and attendant supporting ecosystem services—benefits soil organisms generate for farmers—underpins agricultural production.

We present a method for valuing changes in supporting soil...

Spatial and Temporal Dynamics of Broad-scale Predictive Models : Influences of Scale

Creator:

Hooper, Samuel

Abstract:

Developing accurate predictive distribution models requires adequately representing relevant spatial and temporal scales, as these scales are ultimately reflective of the relationships between distributions and influential environmental conditions. In this research, we considered both spatial and temporal scale and the influence each has on predicting broad-scale distributions of two disparate...
