Structured Decision-making Handbook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Using case studies in the Gal\u00e1pagos National Park, this handbook aims to help environmental managers refine management objectives and apply data analyses to inform adaptive management and decision-making. The handbook outlines the application of structured decision-making (SDM) as a rigorous foundation for evaluating decisions in a transparent manner. By guiding environmental managers through the SD process with examples, the handbook gives them a practical, hands-on method to effectively target resources, then pursue objectives, prioritize interventions, and implement decisions, all while building trust among stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tools for Measuring, Modelling, and Valuing Ecosystem Services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This handbook provides guidance for practitioners on existing tools that can be applied to measure or model ecosystem services provided by important sites for biodiversity and nature conservation, including key biodiversity areas, natural world heritage sites, and protected areas. Selecting an appropriate tool requires identifying the specific question being addressed, what sorts of results or outputs are required, and consideration of practical factors such as the level of expertise, time, and data required for applying any given tool. This guide builds on existing reviews of ecosystem services assessment tools, but has an explicit focus on assessing ecosystem services for sites of importance for biodiversity and nature conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t
