| Abstract: |
| Polyscape is a GIS framework designed to explore spatially explicit synergies and trade-offs amongst
ecosystem services to support landscape management (from individual fields through to local
landscapes of 1000 km2 scale). Polyscape currently maps the impacts of land-cover change on
surface runoff, habitat connectivity, erosion, carbon sequestration and agricultural productivity. The
tool also incorporates trade-off algorithms that allow visualisation of the impact of different land
management decisions and, thus, can be useful for land-use planning at local landscape scales. |
