Assessing trade-offs among ecosystem services (ESs) that are provided by forests is necessary to support decision-making and to minimize negative effects of timber harvesting. In this study, we examined how spatial data, forest operational rules, ESs, and probabilistic statistics can be combined into a practical tool for trade-off analysis that cou...
Maps of ecosystem services are becoming increasingly useful for reporting on the potential impacts of human activity on the environment. However, interactions in watersheds are complex, and mapping hydrological ecosystem services (HES) requires indicators which accurately measure underlying processes. The main objective of this study was to take ad...
Mapping the supply of ecosystem services (ESs) is essential for communicating the importance of ESs to policy makers and to demonstrate that sustainable development is being applied with due diligence by forest managers. ES mapping facilitates the integration of ES assessments into the decision-making process. To that end, the main objective of thi...

... Since our daily lives benefit from ecosystem services (ESs) both directly and indirectly, the continuous maintenance and improvement of ESs is an important goal (Millenium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005). ESs vary by region, inf luenced by diverse landscapes shaped by local weather and topography (Frizzle et al., 2022;Katila et al., 2020). Simultaneously, their use by local people also varies (Karjala et al., 2004;Sherry et al., 2005). ...

... Regarding the relevance for decision-making of each technology category (Table S5), differences in the assessment focus were evident. Most technologies examined human-nature interactions, while Earth observation focused on natural processes (Frizzle et al., 2021;Netzer et al., 2019), and immersive technologies were exclusively used to elicit human behavior (Gissi and Garramone, 2018;Sacchelli et al., 2020). For data collection, the information on ES was mostly obtained in quantitative and spatial terms, while technologies for processing and visualizing data more often included qualitative data. ...
... Wood provisioning ESs are usually accounted for at the level of regional forest management units, whereas water-related ESs are observed at the watershed or subwatershed scale. Moreover, many studies rely upon land use proxies in ES accounting (Hanna et al., 2020;Schmidt et al., 2020). In the case of hydrological ESs, however, Frizzle et al. (2021) found that landscape patterns and morphometric variables also influenced an ecosystem's capacity to supply ESs. ...
