| Abstract | Decision-makers are often described as increasingly interested in learning how investing in nature influences and steers the provision of ecosystem goods and services. Researchers, in response, have developed predominantly quantitative decision-support tools to assess ecosystem-services provision based on a wide range of different, often spatial input data for multiple demand and supply variables. Echoing this, Rieb and colleagues (2017) stated in their recent article that many decision-support tools, although providing important advantages of accessibility or generality, often fail to include sufficient complexity to comprehensively assess when, where, and how much nature is needed to provide ecosystem services (ES) and to sustain and improve human well-being. Rieb and colleagues come up with three research frontiers to improve the existing tools: (1) understanding the complex dynamics of ES in space and time, (2) linking ES provision to human well-being, and (3) determining the potential for technology to substitute for or enhance ES. |
