A cumulative impact assessment tool that combines with EcoFunMAP (Food Web-based Ecosystem Functioning Mapping and Assessment Platform). Integrates food-web modelling with species biomass to map indicators of food-web structure, stability, and functioning at scales relevant for marine spatial planning.
- Ecological
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.
- 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.
- Ecological
Assigning ecological value to an area through integration of the inherent value of the various ecosystem components, independent of human uses and is measured in non-monetary terms.
