Framing ecosystem services: Affecting behaviour of actors in collaborative landscape planning?

Public Support for Wetland Restoration: What is the Link With Ecosystem Service Values?

“…Opdam et al (2015) argue, however, that even within the larger frame of the ES approach, the three ES categories, cultural, regulating and provisioning ESs, correspond with three different storylines. In their framework cultural ESs correspond with a socio-cultural frame that emphasizes cultural benefits, regulating ESs correspond with a sustainability frame that emphasizes benefits of ecological processes and provisioning ESs correspond with an economic frame that puts emphasis on the profits made from ecosystems.…”

“…Studying local motivation for biodiversity conservation, Johansson (2005) identified three personal motives for biodiversity conservation: (a) consideration of human wellbeing and recreation, (b) human survival, and (c) respect for nature. Similarly, Opdam et al (2015) put forward a sociocultural frame, a sustainability frame, and an economic frame. In ES research much effort has been spent on clarifying links between values for ESs and socio-demographic characteristics, while environmental value orientations may be more closely linked to the assigned importance to ESs.…”

Making a difference : boundary management in spatial governance

“…Palacios-Agundez et al (2014) and Herringshaw et al (2010) describe participative landscape governance processes in which the ecosystem services concept was applied, but they did not study its functioning as a boundary concept. Opdam et al (2015a) investigated how the ways in which ecosystem services were framed in collaborative landscape governance processes affected the outcome. Because of their interest in the effectiveness of providing information in such processes, they approached ecosystem services as multiple frames and not as a boundary concept.…”

Europe: the paradox of landscape change : A case-study based contribution to the understanding of landscape transitions

“…Landscape services are concrete, they can be spatially identified, some can be quantified, and they are value-based, i.e. they are defined from the viewpoint of the 'user' or beneficiary (Bürgi et al 2015;Opdam et al 2015;Termorshuizen and Opdam 2009). For that reason, they are more suited to capture also the 'cultural values' than Ecosystem Services.…”

“…Landscape services are concrete, they can be spatially identified, some can be quantified, and they are value-based, i.e. they are defined from the viewpoint of the 'user' or beneficiary (Bürgi et al 2015;Opdam et al 2015;Termorshuizen and Opdam 2009). Main landscape services include provisioning services (crops, feeds, livestock and industrial production), regulatory services (water retention, pollination, carbon storage), cultural services (tourism, cultural heritage, housing, inspiration, hobby farming) (Hornigold et al 2016) and supporting services & biodiversity (wildlife habitat) (Brandt and Vejre 2003).…”
