Abstract Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose of nature are acted on. A better understanding how why is (under)valued more urgent than ever 4 . Notwithstanding...
The ability to monitor changes in biodiversity, and their societal impact, is critical conserving species managing ecosystems. While emerging technologies increase the breadth reach of data acquisition, monitoring efforts are still spatially temporally fragmented, taxonomically biased. Appropriate long-term information remains therefore limited. Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO BON) aims provide a general framework for biodiversity support decision-makers....

Abstract Impacts of climate change require that society urgently develops ways to reduce amounts carbon in the atmosphere. Tropical forests present an important opportunity, as they take up and store large carbon. It is often suggested with high biodiversity have stocks rates uptake. Evidence is, however, scattered across geographic areas scales, it remains unclear whether just a co‐benefit or also requirement for maintenance Here, we perform quantitative review empirical studies analyzed...
Abstract: Evidence suggests that the involvement of local people in conservation work increases a project's chances success. Involving citizen scientists research, however, raises questions about data quality. As tool to better assess potential participants for projects, we developed knowledge gradient, K, along which community members occupy different positions on basis their experience with and research subject. This gradient can be used refine citizen–science concept allow researchers...
This paper critically examines the current political context in which valuation studies of nature are undertaken. It challenges belief that somehow, more and technically better will drive societal change toward just sustainable futures. Instead, we argue proposed practices risk to continue overrepresent values those who hold power dominate space, perpetuate discrimination views nondominant stakeholders. In tackling this politically sensitive issue, define a typology valuations, making...
The paper reviews a number of challenges associated with reducing degradation and its related emissions through national approaches to REDD+ under UNFCCC policy. It proposes that in many countries, it may the short run be easier deal kinds result from locally driven community over-exploitation forest for livelihoods, than selective logging or fire control. Such is low-level, but chronic, experienced over very large areas. Community management programmes tend not only reduced degradation,...
The Values Assessment (VA) of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services shows that while a wide range valuation methods exist to include nature's values in diverse decision-making contexts, uptake these remains limited. Building VA, this paper reviews five critical steps evaluation project or policy proposals can improve inclusion decisions. Furthermore, improving practice requires guidelines utilise quality criteria for nature ensure balance...
