Impacts of land use and climate change on ecosystem services in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment developed an anthropogenic concept of ecosystem services that are defined as benefits that people obtain from ecosystems. As a whole, ecosystems provide a broad variety of services that are crucial to the existence aswell as the social and economic development of human societies. Climate change is perceived as an important driving force in the distribution and functioning of natural ecosystems and it also affects the provisioning of ecosystem services. In the presentstudy, we aim to contribute to the assessment of climate change impacts by employing scenarios to quantify the delivery of particular ecosystem services. Moreover, scenarios from the ALARM project for 2020, 2050, and 2080 are employed to quantify and model in a spatially explicit manner climate change impacts on the future provision of selected ecosystem services (carbon storage and sequestration as well as erosion control and sediment retention) in the Czech Republic. We analysed three
