This book gives an overall analysis of the current knowledge status
about structures, functions, utilization for German Baltic coast
ecosystems. The main focus of this book is on the aquatic area, but
land/sea interactions as well as river outfalls are included as
well. Characteristic for this book is the inclusion of social
science aspects. Approximately one third of its extent will be
about the ecosystem services. In this segment the results of the
last 6 years are presented in which a comprehensive quantification
of the social relevance of ecosystems was carried out covering the
entire area of the German Baltic Sea. This part builds directly on
the results of scientific investigations and are in relation to
social ideals. The assessment will not only be economically and
ethically but also the mechanisms that are used for the
valorisation of the ecosystem services will be evaluated. Both
sub-areas, the classic natural science part as well as the part of
social science aspects, deal with the changes caused by increasing
anthropogenic influence and social (including demographic) changes.
This will be among others in the sense of an exemplary historical
outline. The final chapter of the synthesis therefore not only
presents a summary of the level of knowledge gained and a deduction
of the research needs. It further contains a presentation of the
application aspects resulting from the analysis of the social
relevance gained from basic scientific research. The book is aimed
at scientists (and students) of natural, life and social sciences,
analysing functioning and structures of coastal ecosystems with
regard to sustainable use and nature protection, including aspects
of coastal protection. Besides, it is thought to become a reference
for all levels of decision makers and stakeholders in coastal and
marine management of the Baltic and North Sea region, providing
also a blueprint for system analysis respecting for societal as
well as biological aspects world-wide.
