Journal ArticleDOI
The value of estuarine and coastal ecosystem services
Edward B. Barbier,Sally D. Hacker,Chris J. Kennedy,Evamaria W. Koch,Adrian C. Stier,Brian R. Silliman +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main ecological services across a variety of estuarine and coastal ecosystems (ECEs) including marshes, mangroves, nearshore coral reefs, seagrass beds, and sand beaches and dunes are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coastal Ecosystem-Based Management with Nonlinear Ecological Functions and Values
Edward B. Barbier,Evamaria W. Koch,Brian R. Silliman,Sally D. Hacker,Eric Wolanski,Jurgenne H. Primavera,Elise F. Granek,Stephen Polasky,Shankar Aswani,Lori A. Cramer,David M. Stoms,Chris J. Kennedy,David Bael,Carrie V. Kappel,Gerardo M. E. Perillo,Denise J. Reed +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, a survey of wave attenuation data from field studies of mangroves, salt marshes, seagrass beds, nearshore coral reefs, and sand dunes reveals that these relationships are rarely linear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non‐linearity in ecosystem services: temporal and spatial variability in coastal protection
Evamaria W. Koch,Edward B. Barbier,Brian R. Silliman,Denise J. Reed,Gerardo M. E. Perillo,Sally D. Hacker,Elise F. Granek,Jurgenne H. Primavera,Nyawira A. Muthiga,Stephen Polasky,Benjamin S. Halpern,Chris J. Kennedy,Carrie V. Kappel,Eric Wolanski +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the variability observed in wave attenuation provided by marshes, mangroves, seagrasses, and coral reefs and therefore also in coastal protection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecosystem services as a common language for coastal ecosystem-based management.
Elise F. Granek,Stephen Polasky,Carrie V. Kappel,Denise J. Reed,David M. Stoms,Evamaria W. Koch,Chris J. Kennedy,Lori A. Cramer,Sally D. Hacker,Edward B. Barbier,Shankar Aswani,Mary Ruckelshaus,Gerardo M. E. Perillo,Brian R. Silliman,Nyawira A. Muthiga,David Bael,Eric Wolanski +16 more
TL;DR: In a case study from Puget Sound, Washington, the potential of applying ecosystem services as a common language for ecosystem-based management is illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
