“…Interestingly, it has been reported that provisioning services are also valued with other types of services: for instance, the bundle of services perceived as vulnerable by local residents of a Spanish protected area comprised provisioning services and some cultural services such as recreational hunting (Iniesta-Arandia et al 2014);Hicks and Cinner (2014) have shown that fishers in Tanzania prioritise fishing, bequest and culture together (Hicks and Cinner 2014);Brown et al (2015a) have reported that forested areas in the Norwegian regions of Nordland and Sogn are perceived to provide multiple bundles supporting both recreation-related and provisioning values(Brown et al 2015a). The specific bundles of ecosystem services that stakeholders value together are mediated by various factors, such as access mechanisms(Hicks and Cinner 2014) or placebased constructs(Garcia et al 2017).…”

Background: the concept of 'ecosystem services bundles', i.e. ecosystem services that repeatedly appear together across space and/or time, has been developed and refined as part of an integrated approach to assess interactions between ecosystem services. Nevertheless, published evidence of actual use of bundles in decision-making is lacking. In the light of this gap, a review of what bundle approaches have shown and what they can bring to decision-making is timely. Method: we conducted two separate systematic reviews. The first one addressed emerging issues within what we identify as the diverse utilisation and definition of the concept of 'bundle' in the literature. The second one focused on papers dealing with bundles as sets of consistently associated services. Review Synthesis: the review first highlights that the confusion surrounding the term 'bundle' in ecosystem services literature threatens to weaken the potential for analysis of bundles to inform decision-making. Then, thanks to the review of peer-reviewed papers that detect bundles as sets of consistently associated services, we analyse the diversity of methodological choices and we detail the interactions observed between different ecosystem services across the literature. We also show that landscape features, socio-economic conditions and institutional factors are all potential drivers for the occurrence of specific bundles in a landscape. Discussion: overall, it appears that the analysis of bundles provides an opportunity to enhance policy effectiveness. Nevertheless, the methodological challenges linked to the identification and interpretation of bundles call for careful and reflective study designs. We anticipate that this review will lead to a better understanding by scientists and practitioners of the potential for bundle studies to inform decision-making.

“…In recent years, with the support of GIS techniques, spatial decision-making has been further examined in the process of territory planning and identifying priorities in development strategies [6,12,49]. Integrating spatial analysis allows in-depth investigating the interrelation between social-cultural perception and place-based values, which therefore reinforces the efficiency of development strategies [10]. The approach allows considering the transformation of…”

“…It highlights the importance of human society and its interaction with biophysical factors [3,4], which therefore reflects comprehensive landscape value assessments for efficient decision making [5]. Through harmonizing opinions from the perspective of stakeholders, landscape value assessment contributes to the process of territory planning and development [4,6,7], natural resources management [8,9], natural risk management [7], and assessments of socio-economic development [10][11][12]. This is a multi-dimensional approach for considering several aspects of landscape value, covering both the human and nature landscape [13].…”

The primary aim of this study is to propose a potential landscape value assessment from different dimensions rather than the traditional approach of a composite indicator. The method used in this study is the combination of data collection from stakeholder survey, score measurement for landscape value dimensions using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), and spatial representation with the support of Geographic Information System (GIS). From a large-scale (n = 400) investigation in the Moc Chau district, the statistical data extracted from the survey provides input data for the score determination process. SEM analysis shows that each landscape site has 11 determinants influencing the landscape value assessment. Using the RMSE comparison (for validation) with different interpolation methods, the ordinary kriging method is chosen to model the aggregation landscape value map of Moc Chau District. About 24.97% total area of the study area has great potential for tourism development, being mainly distributed in the center of a high mountainous area. This approach can be used as a model to advocate local and regional assessment and enhance value-based management in other territories in Vietnam and beyond.

“…Secondly, London has a disadvantage of riverside linear GOS. This type of GOS owns positive landscape values and can provide cultural services (Garcia et al, 2017;Vollmer et al, 2015). Thirdly, Shanghai and New York have more roadside linear open space than Tokyo and London.…”

Abstract. Studies show that the green open space (GOS) is beneficial to visitors' mental and physical health and has positive social values. This study took four global cities as examples, namely Shanghai, Tokyo, New York and London. The per capita area, the coverage rate and the availability of GOS were calculated in this study. Then the GOS was classified according to the scales and morphological features. And the author analyzed the relations between availability and spatial patterns. The results showed that the four cities could be classified into two classes. Shanghai and Tokyo are high-population-density cities with medium GOS coverage and availability, and New York and London are medium-population-density cities with high GOS coverage and availability. It was found that the high GOS coverage rate did not necessarily lead to a higher availability. Shanghai and London could increase the amount of small GOS to ease the shortage of availability. And London and Tokyo could consider adding linear GOS to improve the connectivity of GOS.
