Description

Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment (mNCEA)
The Marine Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment (mNCEA) programme is a flagship science innovation programme that is addressing integrating natural capital and ecosystem assessment approaches into policy and decision making for marine and coastal environments. Ecosystem assessment tells us about the health of our natural environment and how this is changing over time, whereas natural capital describes the economic, social and environmental value our natural assets hold for people, from food to carbon storage to health and wellbeing. The mNCEA programme is funded by Defra and delivered by its partners (The Arm's Length Bodies - ALBs).

Seascapes Part II
The Seascapes Part II programme will continue to build, develop and operationally implement the natural capital-based evidence and products that Cefas has developed in the mNCEA programme to date.

Cefas requires the Supplier to provide technical advisory expertise and experience in Natural Capital delivery across a series of work packages within the programme.
