Uses a published methodology for estimating the value of marine environments at sub-national scales, for management purposes. Integrates natural capital accounting with spatial mapping of marine habitats, based on understanding of the links between habitats and ecosystem services.

B4M

Economical

A simplified instrument for estimating the value of ecosystem services adapted to the available information. Three categories are considered: 1) provisioning (wild fish), 2) regulating and maintenance (global climate regulation) and 3) cultural (recreation and visual amenity).

EVTool

Economical

Model to integrate nutrient loading pathways, ecosystem responses, and management scenarios in aquatic systems. It provides simplified long-term simulations of scenarios across lakes, lagoons, estuaries, and coastal waters.

EUTROPY

Ecological

Environmental DNA (eDNA) from organisms is detectable in the environment, using shed material (skin, mucus, faeces etc.). It traces the presence of species without need for capture or direct observations.
