Ecosystem Services

Featured Project

Ecosystem Service-based State and Transition Models
California's oak-grassland ecosystems perform critical services, but current state and transition models (STMs) designed to guide management are based solely on plant community structure. Within the context of woody species management, we are integrating ecosystem services into STM formulation to support management for multiple outcomes >>More
