Results of valuation of regulating ES

Climate-regulating ES. For details see Report 1 for the whole RF and Report 2 for the European Russia

Air purification by suburban forests. For details see Report 1 for the whole RF and Report 2 for the European Russia

Runoff regulation by terrestrial ecosystems. This general estimate is based on the difference between the observed runoff and the hypothetical runoff from an area in the absence of any vegetation (see here). Thus, it takes into account both evapotranspiration and precipitation recycling as a result of ecosystem functioning. For details see Report 1 for the whole RF and Report 2 for the European Russia

Valuation of water-regulating ES for the Kenozero waterched in Arkhangelsk region of RF (Petrov et al., 2022) was made using InVEST package and takes into account only the effect of evapotranspiration on runoff, which is expressed mainly in a decrease in runoff. However, as the work of other researchers shows, the recycling of atmospheric moisture that has been evaporated by ecosystems can not only compensate, but also increase the total runoff.

ES of soil protection was estimated for European Russia using Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation RUSLE (Report 2)

Valuation of ES of soil protection for the Kenozero waterched in Arkhangelsk region of RF (Petrov et al., 2022) was made using InVEST package.

Soil self-purification. For details see Report 1

Regulation of cryogenic processes. For details see Report 1

Pollination of crops by wild insects. For details see Report 2
