Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to model a process for moving toward sustainable ecosystem service decisions in a Coastal Biodiversity and discuss the directions of the process for decision-makers to apply in ocean ecosystem services.

Design/methodology/approach

After the development of theoretical approaches to understand their prospects for the future development of ecosystem services, the authors worked on a process for developing factors for sustainable decision-making. It uses the Delphi method to develop all the factors supported by six dimensions in two specific moments: deductive-inductive and inductive-deductive.

Findings

This process of modeling the factors expands the possibility of adaptive governance to make prior and subsequent decisions using factors related to dimensions, stakeholders and benefits, risks, opportunities and costs.

Research limitations/implications

Considering the limitations, future studies could use another database to widen the view in terms of the studies, factors, dimensions and other additional information to maintain the evolution of this process in ocean ecosystem services decision-making. Another limitation arose in the number of projects and experts defining the factors. This may prevent the opportunity to have more impact in terms of future decisions if more sources are used in the market. In addition, time and the access to experts during this modeling process demonstrate a limitation, as does the time for feedback.

Practical implications

This set of factors developed for adaptive governance decision-making can be applied to develop a prior alignment of stakeholder interests with sustainable practices.

Social implications

This set of factors developed with the intervention of experts reinforces the importance of sustainable collective decisions on ocean ecosystem services. This is a joint approach with participants in the NextOcean project, sponsored by the European Commissions (EC)’s Horizon 2020 program. An Earth Observation-based Consortia aims to create sustainable value for Space, Land and Oceans.

Originality/value

This modeling process generated dimensions and factors to support adaptive governance stakeholders in making sustainable decisions in a coastal biodiversity zone.

海洋生态系统服务:对要素开发过程进行建模,为决策创造可持续价值

目的

本文的目的是对沿海生物多样性中走向可持续生态系统服务决策的过程进行建模,并讨论决策者在海洋生态系统服务中应用该过程的方向。

设计/方法论/途径

在开发了理论方法来了解生态系统服务未来发展的前景之后,作者研究了开发可持续决策因素的过程。它使用德尔菲法在两个特定时刻(演绎-归纳和归纳-演绎)开发由六个维度支持的所有因素。

发现

这种对因素进行建模的过程扩展了适应性治理的可能性,以使用与维度、利益相关者和收益、风险、机会和成本相关的因素做出先前和后续决策。

研究局限性/影响

考虑到这些局限性,未来的研究可以使用另一个数据库来拓宽研究、因素、维度和其他附加信息的视野,以维持海洋生态系统服务决策过程的演变。另一个限制是定义因素的项目和专家的数量。如果市场上使用更多来源,这可能会妨碍对未来决策产生更大影响的机会。此外,建模过程中的时间和与专家的接触也存在局限性,反馈时间也是如此。

实际影响

为适应性治理决策而开发的这组因素可用于预先使利益相关者的利益与可持续实践保持一致。

社会影响

在专家干预下制定的这组因素强化了海洋生态系统服务可持续集体决策的重要性。这是与 NextOcean 项目参与者的联合方案,由欧盟委员会 (EC) 的 Horizo​​n 2020 计划赞助。以地球观测为基础的联盟旨在为太空、陆地和海洋创造可持续价值。

原创性/价值

该建模过程生成了维度和因素,以支持适应性治理利益相关者在沿海生物多样性区做出可持续决策。
