ECOSYSTEM SERVICES IN FOCUS<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

BONUS MARES\u00a0<\/strong>observes and monitors ecosystem goods and services<\/strong> in the Baltic Sea Region, specifically of its coastal system threatened by multiple pressures and climate change. This will be done by an extensive literature review on the existing knowledge on marine ecosystem services provided by mussel reefs, submerged vegetation and seagrass beds<\/strong> in the Baltic Sea. BONUS MARES will create spatial models on their existence under differing future scenarios taking into account, for example, eutrophication and climate change effects.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MONETARY AND NON-MONETARY VALUATION METHODS IN USE<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

BONUS MARES<\/strong> analyses the adequacy of existing methods to transfer this scientific knowledge for practitioners<\/strong> (combination of \u2018ecosystem service-evaluation method\u2019). It will review different methods for monetary and non-monetary economic evaluation of the marine ecosystem services and takes the most feasible ones for further processing. This is done by taking a highly participatory approach, i.e. involving experts, stakeholders and decision-makers to contribute, through a 2-step Delphi online procedure and workshops.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0COMMUNICATION AND INTERACTION AT THE CORE<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

BONUS MARES<\/strong> results will be captured in scientific articles and related policy briefs, newsletters and a final popular publication<\/strong> that will pull together findings, lessons learned, and gaps identified in current practices. In this way, the aim is to inform and interface with the concerned stakeholders and the general public, thereby pursuing the objective of concretely reducing the distance between the scientific community, decision making and the overall society.<\/span><\/p>\n

One key element is the realisation of GIS based maps in an online portal<\/strong> where\u00a0maps representing the spatial distributions of the ecosystem services\u00a0provided by mussel reefs, seagrass beds and other submerged vegetation in the Baltic Sea can be generated.<\/span><\/p>\n
