Description

This document is composed of two parts: a report and the associated Microsoft Access database with information collected for selected Ecosystem Service Provider (ESP) species.

The objective of this database was to provide compiled, and ready to use, information on the biology and ecology of key Ecosystem Service Providers (ESP) within the studied EU agricultural landscapes to be modelled in ALMaSS (agent-based or subpopulation-based models that will run on ALMaSS landscapes and will be used to test Ecostack scenarios). This information was necessary to build the “formal model” for each species, a step of paramount important in model building.

The DB contains information from species being currently modelled but is prepared to be updated with new information on the same or other ESP species. To better understand the DB, it is advisable to consult the associated report.
