In analyzing the provincial parks system in Ontario, Canada, SIG compared two different methodologies for quantifying and assessing the flow of ecosystem services in order to explore new frameworks for management.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Difficulties in Quantifying Ecosystem Services<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThough these services are vital to humans, there are often difficulties in quantifying them; landscapes can be vast and difficult to measure, and service benefits can be difficult to understand when they are enjoyed far from their origin. These challenges present opportunities for using spatial data to better evaluate the benefits of these places, in terms of both quantity and potency.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Testing Approaches<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe system of protected areas in Ontario, Canada, is an excellent example of landscapes that provide beneficiaries with a wide range of essential services, including clean water, pollination, temperature regulation, carbon sequestration, and, critically, recreation.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Value Transfer vs ARIES<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

MNR teamed up with Spatial Informatics Group to execute this ambitious project. Two parks\u2013Algonquin Provincial Park and Lake of the Woods\u2013were chosen as study areas within which to test two approaches to understanding ecosystem services.<\/p>

One was the traditional and widely used \u201cvalue transfer\u201d approach that imputes the value of ecosystem services from a landscape by comparing it with similar areas where economic valuation studies have been performed. The other approach was to use the AI-based ARIES (Artificial Intelligence for Ecosystem Services) system to quantify spatial connections between ecosystems and their beneficiaries. This more rigorous approach determines both value and spatial relationships.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Ready for Modernization <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhile the value transfer analysis estimated economic values for the flow more than a dozen ecosystem services across 18 land cover types, the ARIES approach involved far more detailed modeling of four ecosystem services: carbon sequestration, recreation, surface water supply, and sediment regulation. These models quantified the spatial connection between ecosystems and their beneficiaries. Together, SIG’s work served as an important first step in bringing a new suite of modern, powerful tools for managing resources in Ontario.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
