Abstract

Ecosystem services are the benefits that natural environments supply to human beings. Due to the immense diversity of ecosystems and objectives for which their services are being assessed, there are no standard methodologies for this type of evaluation. The high biodiversity and geodiversity of the coastal zone allow a wide range of services. However, deleterious impacts to the environment threaten the delivery of these services and, consequently, the human well-being they lead to. The coastal zone, with its multiple users and impacts, is a case in which an ecosystem-based approach would bring many benefits within the scope of an integrated coastal management strategy. By considering the ecosystem services supplied by the coastal zone, it is possible to make well-informed decisions. The objective of the present study was to carry out a revision on ecosystem services and their application within the context of coastal management.

生态系统服务方法及其作为沿海综合管理工具的应用
生态系统服务是自然环境为人类提供的利益。由于生态系统及其服务评估目标的巨大多样性,这类评估没有标准方法。沿海地区具有高度的生物多样性和地理多样性,可提供广泛的服务。然而,对环境的有害影响威胁到这些服务的提供,从而威胁到它们带来的人类福祉。沿海地区有多种用户和影响,在这种情况下,基于生态系统的方法将在综合沿海管理战略的范围内带来许多好处。通过考虑沿海地区提供的生态系统服务,可以做出明智的决定。本研究的目的是对生态系统服务及其在沿海管理中的应用进行修订。
