Biodiversity and Human Values

16.0K
Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Professional Values

9.2K
Nurses are responsible for caring for patients during birth, death, illness, and healing. Professional values guide the decisions and actions that nurses make in their careers. If nurses know the decisions and actions to take, providing patients with exceptional care is possible.
The values that are the foundation of the nursing profession are altruism, autonomy, human dignity, and social justice.
First, altruism refers to the concern for the welfare and well-being of others without personal...

Sustainable Development

14.3K
As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

The Soil Ecosystem02:23

The Soil Ecosystem

23.9K
Plants obtain inorganic minerals and water from the soil, which acts as a natural medium for land plants. The composition and quality of soil depend not only on the chemical constituents but also on the presence of living organisms. In general, soils contain three major components:

Trophic Efficiency00:46

Trophic Efficiency

23.1K
Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) is a measure of the total energy transfer from one trophic level to the next. Due to extensive energy loss as metabolic heat, an average of only 10% of the original energy obtained is passed on to the next level. This pattern of energy loss severely limits the possible number of trophic levels in a food chain.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Ecosystem service frameworks often overlook public values for woodlands. This study shows expert classifications like CICES (Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services) differ from general public perceptions, highlighting the need for inclusive approaches.

Area of Science:

  • Ecology
  • Environmental Social Science
  • Conservation Science

Background:

  • Numerous ecosystem service frameworks have emerged since the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment.
  • Frameworks vary based on scale, policy context, and discipline, but often rely on expert opinion.
  • There's a need to assess how well these frameworks align with public perceptions of ecosystem services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the alignment between expert-defined ecosystem service frameworks and public values for British woodlands.
  • To identify disparities in how experts and the public conceptualize ecosystem services.
  • To explore the influence of social characteristics on public values for ecosystem services.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Common International Classification of Ecosystem Services (CICES) for analysis.
  • Examined public values for ecosystem services in British woodlands.
  • Analyzed differences in conceptualization based on expert versus public perspectives.
  • Investigated variations in public values explained by social characteristics like ethnicity.

Main Results:

  • Significant disparities exist between expert-driven frameworks and public conceptualizations of ecosystem services.
  • The detailed CICES classification does not match generalized public values for certain services (e.g., provisioning, regulation, maintenance).
  • Social characteristics, such as ethnicity, influence public values for ecosystem services, requiring consideration in decision-making.

Conclusions:

  • Current ecosystem service frameworks may not adequately capture diverse public values.
  • Incorporating societal views into ecosystem service frameworks is crucial for their effectiveness, transparency, and support.
  • Future approaches must bridge the gap between scientific classifications and public perceptions of nature's benefits.
