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
Effect of aquaculture on world fish supplies
Rosamond L. Naylor,Rebecca J. Goldburg,Jurgenne H. Primavera,Nils Kautsky,Malcolm Beveridge,Jason Clay,Carl Folke,Jane Lubchenco,Harold A. Mooney,Max Troell +9 more
TL;DR: If the growing aquaculture industry is to sustain its contribution to world fish supplies, it must reduce wild fish inputs in feed and adopt more ecologically sound management practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resilience and sustainable development: building adaptive capacity in a world of transformations
TL;DR: The concept of resilience—the capacity to buffer change, learn and develop—is used as a framework for understanding how to sustain and enhance adaptive capacity in a complex world of rapid transformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Present state and future of the world's mangrove forests
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that over the past 50 years, approximately one-third of the world's mangrove forests have been lost, but most data show very variable loss rates and there is considerable margin of error in most estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The habitat function of mangroves for terrestrial and marine fauna: a review
Ivan Nagelkerken,Stephen J. M. Blaber,Steven Bouillon,P Green,Michael D. E. Haywood,Lg Kirton,Jan-Olaf Meynecke,Joseph R. Pawlik,Hm Penrose,A. Sasekumar,Pj Somerfield +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the literature with regard to the degree of interlinkage between mangroves and adjacent habitats, a research area which has received increasing attention in the last decade.

The value of the world's ecosystem services and natural capital
Robert Costanza,Rudolf de Groot,Stephen Farberk,Monica Grasso,Bruce Hannon,Karin E. Limburg,Shahid Naeem,José M. Paruelo,Robert Raskin,Paul Suttonkk,Marjan van den Belt +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have estimated the current economic value of 17 ecosystem services for 16 biomes, based on published studies and a few original calculations, for the entire biosphere, the value (most of which is outside the market) is estimated to be in the range of US$16-54 trillion (10^(12)) per year, with an average of US $33 trillion per year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproductive and larval ecology of marine bottom invertebrates.
TL;DR: In analysing the ecological conditions of an animal population, the most sensitive stages within the life cycle of the animal are focused upon, that is, the period of breeding and larval development.
