1.- To define concepts related to ecosystem services (ES).

4.- To define criteria and generate tools and models for decision making linked to integrated land use planning and management, via assessment and mapping of the main ES  (Methodological Guide), in order to:

  • understand the spatial distribution of ES.
  • propose different levels of green infrastructure based on multifunctional areas (multiple ES).
  • analyse synergies and trade-offs in order to increase the supply of ES.
  • analyse conflicts between ES supply and demand with a view to prioritising actions.
  • analyse future scenarios and identify possible responses.

5.- To analyse ways of integrating the ES approach into management:

6.- To understand society’s view of ES: surveys, workshops and courses.

7.- To analyse ES on different scales: Urdaibai, Natura 2000 Network, Agroecosystems, Bilbao Metropolitan Greenbelt, Urola Costa Functional Area, urban ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems.
