Description
EA Natural Capital Condition and Ecosystem Service Mapping Pilot:
The Environment Agency (EA) are developing a specification to create pilot riverine natural capital condition and ecosystem service maps, with the longer-term aim of scaling these up nationally. User needs have been identified and the pilot maps will build on work previously undertaken in Phase 1 to review the inference of riverine natural capital condition from existing data, approaches to mapping asset condition, and the evidence base linking asset condition to provision of ecosystem services. It was found that in the absence of detailed riverine natural capital condition data at site scale condition indicators can be used to enhance our understanding of natural capital condition and ecosystem services and to create broadscale maps.
This project (Phase 2) will develop and trial prototype riverine natural capital condition and ecosystem service mapping using the approaches, evidence and indicators identified in Phase 1. This package of work is funded by the Defra-wide Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) programme which aims to transform landscape decision-making in England by providing a rich picture of the state of our terrestrial and marine environments and how they are changing.
