Economic research and various monetary and non-monetary methods have also been developed to reintroduce environmental goods into economic evaluations, generating the concept of ecosystem services. However, the issue is under debate within the scientific community, and a general agreement on the validity of evaluation methods is often missing: not all methods are adequate to evaluate all kinds of environmental goods. Moreover, much about ecological processes and the amount of resources that can be used in a sustainable way is still unknown.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tUnderstanding the interactions between biodiversity, humans and geophysical processes are of primary importance in<strong> <\/strong>BONUS MARES:\u00a0Economics is approached as an open system that is intertwined with other environmental and human systems.\n<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\n\t\tThe final goal of the project is to provide an interface that links <span style=\"color:#008080\"><strong>science to society and policy<\/strong>,<\/span> and thereby supports policy makers with scientific evidence upon which critical decisions can be made.
