  1. 1. Reconnecting with nature through concepts : On the construction of values in the ecosystem services paradigm

    Författare :Sanna Stålhammar; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ekosystemtjänster; hållbarhetsvetenskap; Vetenskapsteori; människa↔natur; värde; Ecosystem Services; Ecosystem services concept; ecosystem services value; Ecosystem service assessment; Cultural ecosystem services; socio-cultural valuation; connectedness; Relational value; experienced and context-based perspective.; Urban green infrastructures;

    Sammanfattning : The alarming rates of extinction and degrading ecosystems call for new means of understanding and accounting for how people depend on nature. Ecosystem services (ES) is a contested but widely applied concept aiming to connect ecosystem functions to human wellbeing and to assess and account for how nature matters in decision-making.

  2. 2. Vehicle Services

    Författare :Jonas Kuschel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :vehicle services; information infrastructure; open innovation; prototyping; field studies;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to our understanding of the development and diffusion of vehicle services, and to how information technology interacts with forms of organization and business models to undermine or support the development of vehicle services. The overall research question asked in the thesis is: what are the technical, business and organizational prerequisites for the development and diffusion of a rich variety of vehicle services? The development and diffusion of vehicle services have been empirically investigated by ethnographic field studies, prototype software development and case studies as part of a collaborative practice research approach involving the Volvo Group.

  3. 3. How on Earth? : Operationalizing the ecosystem service concept for sustainability

    Författare :Katja Malmborg; Lisen Schultz; Albert V. Norström; Kaisa Korhonen-Kurki; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem services; Stewardship; Resilience thinking; Knowledge co-production; Landscape management; Learning; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling; Sustainability Science;

    Sammanfattning : Production landscapes are at the center of many of the sustainability challenges that we face. The ecosystem service concept has risen in prominence over the last decades as a tool to support sustainable landscape management. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Geosystem services to support decisions on subsurface use

    Författare :Emrik Lundin Frisk; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geosystem services; Sustainability; Subsurface; Conflict of interests; Ecosystem services;

    Sammanfattning : Awareness of the subsurface is in general low and is not a daily concern for decision-makers. This often results in that decisions on access to subsurface resources instead are guided by a ‘first come, first served principle’. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Social-ecological dynamics of ecosystem service bundles

    Författare :Megan Meacham; Albert V. Norström; Garry D. Peterson; Dagmar Haase; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem services; multifunctionality; landscape; patterns; cluster; drivers; mapping; trade-offs; synergies; sustainability; land use; landscape management; Sweden; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Sammanfattning : The environments in which we live are complex, adapting and evolving in non-linear ways. The ecosystem services produced in landscapes supply resources, support livelihoods and are foundational to human wellbeing. LÄS MER
