This deliverable presents the generation of EUNIS habitat maps for Europe as a whole and each pilot areas in REST-COAST. Subsequently, it assignment semi-quantitative scores contribution (sub)habitat to five key ecosystem services applying rank scale 0 (none), 1 (very low contribution), 2 (low 3 (medium 4 (high contribution) 5 high contribution). It also describes IUCN Red List Habitats depicted (sub)habitats areas. And finally, assess coastal system behaviour restoration effects on...
Coastal regions provide some of the most productive and biodiverse environments with an important often underappreciated carbon storage potential. At same time, they are among areas highest population density, natural assets, cultural heritage in world, yet experiencing significant social, economic environmental challenges, exacerbated by climate change human pressures.The Rest-Coast Project (Large scale RESToration COASTal ecosystems through rivers to sea connectivity) is EU Horizon 2020...
