Scenarios of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (Biodiversity 1)


This Collaborative Research Action (CRA) sought to stimulate networking and capacity building for innovative research across social and natural science disciplines. Proposed projects were expected to address the following:
- Harmonizing and integrating development and application of biodiversity scenarios across spatial scales of relevance to multiple types of decisions.
- Harmonizing and integrating consideration of multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem services.
The call was launched in 2012 and the projects ended in 2018.
The CRA was supported by CSIRO, FAPESP, NSFC, ANR, DFG, MoES, MEXT/JST, RCN, and NRF.
Four projects were selected:
ScenNet | Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Scenarios Network |
IHDBS | Impact of Human Drivers (Fire, Agriculture and Grazing) on Biodiversity in the Savannas |
SEAVIEW | Scenario, Fishery, Ecological-Economic Modelling and Viability Network |
TSUNAGARI | Trans-System, Unified Approach for Global and Regional Integration of Social-Ecological Study toward Sustainable Use of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services |
