Over the last two decades, the topic of forest ecosystem services
has attracted the attention of researchers, land managers, and
policy makers around the globe. The services rendered by forest
ecosystems range from intrinsic to anthropocentric benefits that
are typically grouped as provisioning, regulating, supporting, and
cultural. The research efforts, assessments, and attempts to manage
forest ecosystems for their sustained services are now widely
published in scientific literature. This volume focuses on
broad-scale aspects of forest ecosystem services, beyond individual
stands to large landscapes. In doing so, it illustrates the
conceptual and practical opportunities as well as challenges
involved with planning for forest ecosystem services across
landscapes, regions, and nations. The goal here is to broaden the
scope of land use planning through the adoption of a
landscape-scale approach. Even though this approach is complex and
involves multiple ecological, social, cultural, economic, and
political dimensions, the landscape perspective appears to offer
the best opportunity for a sustained provision of forest ecosystem
services.
