Ecosystem services can be an important tool for developing the effectiveness of bioeconomic approaches and the decision-making process. The chapter aims to explain the concept of ecosystem services and explore the relationship between ecosystem services and the bioeconomy. The economic context of ecosystem services introduces tools for an economic...
The article focuses on the identification and mapping of cultural ecosystem service (CES) resources in the territory of the Local Action Group Lednice–Valtice Area (LAG LVA). The Consolidated Layer of Ecosystems (CLE) was used for mapping, and changes in the distribution and overall representation of cultural ecosystem service resources across the...

This study assesses the social, economic, and environmental effects of harvesting timber from the Kambui Hills forest reserve in Sierra Leone, a part of the Gola rain forest, a biodiversity hotspot along the upper Guinea forest zone that stretches through the Manor River Union basin of the Republics of Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. The study ar...
The article focuses on the identification and evaluation of cultural ecosystem services within the territory of the Local Action Group (LAG) Třeboňsko. The practical implementation of ecosystem services into decision-making processes, planning, monitoring, or economic mechanisms in the Czech Republic is still low. Besides the need for its dissemina...
The study examines the drivers of the green economy generally and with a focus on sectors regarded as environmental-sensitive hotspots like waste, agriculture, forestry, energy, and transport sectors. The study was grounded on both the natural resource-based view and institutional theories. Creswell's (2014) thematic analysis and the graphic framew...
Not enough attention is paid to the protection zones of small protected areas in the Czech Republic. They are defined mechanically, illogically and non-functionally. This approach often causes problems for both landowners and farmers in these protection zones and threatens the condition of the protected area itself. Legislative treatment is vague a...
The poster presents a study “Local Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change and Mitigation Measures of the City of Tišnov”, prepared by the team of Mendel University in Brno in cooperation with the Partnership Foundation. The strategy responds to the need of the municipality Tišnov to implement measures that reduce the vulnerability of the city an...
Floodplain forests at the confluence of the rivers Dyje and Morava (in the southeastern tip of the Czech Republic) are completely unique ecosystems in terms of area and ecology. For many years, there has been an effort by the state’s nature protection officials to declare the area as a Protected Landscape Area. This effort is met by the resistance...
Although the use and management of ecosystem services (ES) resources and the promotion of their provision are a standard and necessary part of spatial planning tools and documents, a direct implementation of this concept is exceptional. Researchers and entire projects have so far focused mainly on identification of ecosystem services and their reso...
Natura 2000 is a network of European protected areas, established under the provision of two directives of the European Union: the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and the Birds Directive (79/409/EEC; 2009/147/EU). The Natura 2000 network can be considered an interesting instrument to maintain and improve ecosystem services provided by protected site...
Administration of the basins and watercourses in the Czech Republic is defined by Act No. 254/2001 Coll., on waters (the Water Act).

A large part of these data is publicly accessible and serves as the basis for wate...
Implementation of the Natura 2000 network, both at European and local level, is confronted with a different approach and support from local, regional and national state administration and self-government authorities, as well as with the unresponsive approach of other interested parties. It is set out in the Directive 92/43/EEC about habitats itself...
The Holásecká jezera ponds, located in the south of Brno, have been an exceptional natural monument since 1987.

Questions
Questions (6)
Land use limits are a legislatively defined part of spatial planning tools in the Czech Republic. Is there a similar mechanism in other countries, please? Eventualy, is it available in English (either in the form of a handbook or an article)? My aim is to evaluate the link between land use limits in spatial planning and ecosystem services. Thank you.
We prepare a project proposal for evaluation of ecosystem services of closed recultivated landfills of mixed communal waste in the Czech Republic. Please, could you recommend us works or results of investigation of biodiversity (or focused on individual groups of organisms) of these landfills? Especially in near-by countries - Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Austraia, Hungary. Thank you very much
We investigate efectiveness of public participation on EIA process in Czech Republic. We found only a few articles with examples from other countries e.g. Silas 2013, Nadeem and Fischer 2010, Del Furia and Wallace-Jones 2000) or general works like Hartley and Wood, 2005. We are especially interesting in possibilities how determinate „public“ (and separate it from „professionals“), how classify weight of trusts or petitions comparing with individual persons, how select public remarks and observations and also findings fo investigation from another countries. We have own methodology for it now, but it is important to know another possibilities.
I prepare questionare surveys about public perception of forest within project http://rafa.frrms.mendelu.cz/en?lang=en. I have ideas about objectives of questionare, but Im looking for rules (methodology) of taking pictures of forest stands structure. What is necessary to take care? Or is it enough to have similar values of exposition, focal distance etc.? I suppose there is necessary to accept diferrence light conditions within forest stands.
I found only common verbal description without counting or expression how LAG activities support regional development within their area.
I'm focused on forest functions, their evaluation and position within ecosystem services systems. It is easy to find gerenal information about systems like TEEB, CICES, MEA or FEGS and their mutual connections. It is possilbe to find a lot of scientific research results focused on specific ecosystem aspects of forest ecosystem functions (soil processes, water runnof etc.). But I've tried to find more complex systems of forest function evaluation (like e.g. Vyskot et al.) nad use as ecosystem base for evaluation of forest ecosystem services (potential of forest ecosystem to fulfil social needs). Maybe there are research reports more useful than articles in journals?
