TL;DR: In this article, the authors used LANDSAT MSS to quantify changes in land-use and ecosystem services due to urban sprawl in Bexar County, TX, in which San Antonio is centered.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated changes in land use and ecosystem services on Dongtan (East Beach of Chongming Island) between 1990 and 2000, and found that the total value of ecosystem services in Dongtan declined by 62% from $ 316.77 to 120.40 million per year between 1990-2000 (totaling $855.26-981.85 million over 10-years).

TL;DR: This work identifies five principles underpinning the adaptive management actions used by successful grazing managers and the ecological, physiological, and behavioral framework they use to achieve desired conservation, production, and financial goals, and outlines knowledge gaps and present testable hypotheses to broaden the understanding of how planned multi-paddock grazing management can be used at the ranching enterprise scale to facilitate the adaptivemanagement of rangelands under dynamic environmental conditions.

TL;DR: This article reviewed the social and ecological causes and consequences of the transformation of grasslands to juniper woodlands and synthesize the recent emergence of prescribed burn cooperatives, an extensive societal movement by private citizens to restore fire to the Great Plains biome.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have measured spatiotemporal ecosystem service value (ESV) of 17 key ecosystems of Sundarbans Biosphere Reserve (SBR) in India using temporal remote sensing (RS) data.
