D2.8 Assessment of ecosystem services of Ema-Terezie Mine dumps complex

Original language description

ork Package No 2 focuses on mapping and assessing the ecosystems and their services of the project&apos;s case studies. Specific objectives are:To identify the adequate boundaries of the different case studies based on existing spatial connectivity and functional cohesion for each coal mining-affected area.To delineate, categorize and map the different ecosystems types of land covers in the study areas, according to CORINE Land Cover classes (Bossard et al., 2000; Kosztra et al., 2017), although doing detailed field mapping at a higher resolution.To assess the ecosystem services according to the Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services (CICES) V5.1 (Haines-Young &amp; Potschin, 2018), in order to achieve standardization and to avoid any overlapping or redundancy within the different categories.To implement a geographic information system (GIS) web interface for each-case study, allowing constructing user desired information thematic maps for viewing purposes.As the typology of ecosystems and ecosystem services will provide the analytical frame for the project, in order to operationalize this work package, after Task 2.1 that was focused on the baseline mapping of relevant ecosystems, Task 2.2 will focus on the assessment of ecosystem services.In order to achieve the higher degree of standardization and to avoid any overlapping or redundancy within the different categories, the hierarchical structure of the Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services (CICES) V5.1 will be used to assess the ecosystem services of each case study, that is &quot;the benefits people obtain from ecosystems&quot; (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005).For each relevant land cover the three main section categories (provisioning services, regulating and maintenance services, and cultural services) will be considered, both biotic and abiotic, divided into main types of output or process (Division).After that, the main types of output or process will be divided into group levels, according to the biological, physical or cultural type or process, and sub-divided into class categories, that are codified in CICES. Class types within class categories will allow to link ecosystem services with identifiable services, suggesting ways of measuring the associated ecosystem services output.Deliverable 2.8 will undergo the assessment of ecosystem services of Ema-Terezie Mine dumps complex, property of RPG RE Land, Ltd. Ostrava (Czech Republic).
