Integration of sectoral impacts research: cross cutting themes and implications
Jane Stout (TCD)
Sectoral IMpacts on BIOdiversity and ecoSYStem services
Energy crops
Road Landscaping
Aquaculture
Key findings
• Different management approaches affect different aspects of biodiversity
• Positive relationship between species richness and services across landuse types/systems
Sectoral IMpacts on BIOdiversity and ecoSYStem services
Cardinale et al. 2012 Nature 486: 59‐67
Sectoral IMpacts on BIOdiversity and ecoSYStem services
Energy crops
Road Landscaping
Aquaculture
Biodiversity and society: win‐win solutions?
• Lower inputs: cheaper, better for biodiversity
• Increase miscanthus yield => more C sequestration
• Triploid oysters: decreased risk of spread & quicker growth

Energy crops
Road Landscaping
Implications
Aquaculture
• Increased biodiversity increases delivery of some ecosystem services
• Appropriate management can be achieved if there are clear goals in terms of services
• Temporal/spatial issues?
• Multiple pressures?
Sectoral IMpacts on BIOdiversity and ecoSYStem services
For discussion
• Which ecosystem services do we want to manage for, what are the priorities, how do we achieve multi‐functional ecosystems?
• SIMBIOSYS project focus is biodiversity, but social, economic and policy context will drive management – comment/perspective?
• What next, what further research is needed?
