Integrated ecosystem services assessment: Valuation of changes due to sea level rise in Galveston Bay, Texas, USA

Abstract: The goal of the present study was to identify the potential changes in ecosystem service values provided by wetlands in Galveston Bay, Texas, USA, under the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) A1B max (0.69 m) sea level rise scenario. Built exclusively upon the output produced during the Sea Level Affecting Marshes Model 6 (SLAMM 6) exercise for the Galveston Bay region, this study showed that fresh marsh and salt marsh present a steady decline from 2009 (initial condition) to 2100. Fresh marsh wa… Show more

“…Sea level rise is expected to transform many coastal wetlands and negatively affect some of the goods and services that these ecosystems support (Craft et al., ; Kirwan et al., ; Runting, Lovelock, Beyer, & Rhodes, ; Yoskowitz, Carollo, Pollack, Santos, & Welder, ). Coastal wetlands are highly productive ecosystems that provide many benefits to society, including erosion control, coastal protection during storms, water filtration, flood reduction, carbon sequestration, recreational opportunities and maintenance of productive coastal fisheries (Barbier et al., ; Costanza et al., ; Morgan, Burdick, & Short, ; Sutton‐Grier, Wowk, & Bamford, ).…”

“…For example, actions related to oyster restoration could increase the width or height of the reef, while the cumulative impact of multiple stressors could lead to long‐term degradation . When specifying the effect of management actions on ecosystem structure, important considerations include assumptions about the success of habitat restoration, temporal trajectories for restoration or degradation, and the extent to which the ecosystem services assessment incorporates external drivers, such as sea‐level rise …”

“…87 When specifying the effect of management actions on ecosystem structure, important considerations include assumptions about the success of habitat restoration, 29,66 temporal trajectories for restoration or degradation, 86,88 and the extent to which the ecosystem services assessment incorporates external drivers, such as sea-level rise. [89][90][91] The second step in an ecosystem service assessment relates change in ecosystem structure to an ecological process that provides a service, referred to as an ecological production function. [76][77][78]92 The ecological production function yields the supply of the coastal protection service.…”
