Ecosystem Services in Delta Science: A Series of Three Brown
Bag Seminars
Studies in ecosystem services estimate the ways ecosystems benefit US, be, it by
providing food, regulating floods, or creating a feeling of well-being. This series will
explore the ways that ecosystem services can be used in land uise planning,
management decisions, and scientific research with a focus on the Delta.
Ail talks will be held at the:
Park Tower Plaza
2nid Floor Conference Room
980 Ninth Street
Sacramento, CA 95814
All talks will be webcast
Seminar I .- Towards multi-functional resilient landscapes:
environmental heterogeneity as a bridge amonig diverse ecosystem
services
1
Iryna Dronova, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, UC Berkeley
Wednesday, January 17, 12:00-IM p.m.
Dr. Dronova will speak about her research on the dynamics of wetland vegetation
and ecosystem services in the Delta. This talk will focus on the impact of
complex, multi-functional landscapes on ecosystem services, management, and
planning.
Seminar 2 - Ecosystem services and reserve selection
Van! Butak, Ph.D., Assistant Specialist & Adjunct Professor, UC Berkeley
Monday, January 22, 12:00-1:00 p.m.
Dr. Butsic will describe the use of economic theory and methods to evaluate land
use decisions. He will show how applications of these theories inform the
sebection of conservation reserves and the implications these strategies have on
work in the Delta.
Seminar 3 - Decision frameworks for landscape interventions with
multiple ecosystem service impacts: applications in the Central Valley
on Bryant, Ph.D., Natural Capital Project, Water in the West, Stanford
Wednesday, January 31, 12:00 — 1:00 p.m.
Dr. Bryant will present on methodological approaches for integrating ecosystem
services, hydrologic, and economic modeling to inform decisions about landscape
management. The talk will combine California case studies with discussions
about how to operationalize concepts from multi-criteria analysis and decision
making under uncertainty.
