1 TEEB Related Research Activities in China an overview TIAN Yu Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences

2 Background to assess the overall contribution of ecosystems to social and economic well-being; to understand how and why economic actors use ecosystems as they do; to assess the relative impact of alternative actions so as to help guide decision-making.

3 Outline Review on scientific research Statistic analysis on scientific researches Status and a case study on forest ecosystem TEEB related programs in process

4 Development mid 1990s-- end 1980s-- Environmental problems New words come our Policy making needs

5 Statistic analysis 481 research papers in Chinese

6 Spatial Pattern Researches on ecosystem services Researches on forest ecosystem services

7 Classifications in two different ways Scales Ecosystem types

8 Statistics on our reviewed papers Type Scale national basin province city zone Total forest grassland farmland wetland river ocean total

9 Statistics on our reviewed papers Type Scale national basin province city zone Total forest grassland farmland wetland river ocean total

10 Implementation Articles, Books and communication platform based on internet; Certifications:2008,LY/T Certification on forest ecosystem services evaluation

11 FOREST ECOSYSTEM

12 National scale 1 Ecosystem function 2 4 ecosystem services (MA) Regional scale 1Province, city 2Basin 3nature reserve Monotonous service Fig. 1 Distribution of values of forest ecosystem services in China Fig. 2 Distribution of values of forest ecosystem services per hectare in China Fig. 3 Results of integrated assessment for forest ecosystem services in China

13 Economic value indicator system for Natural capital Based on the Ecosystem function Economic value indicator system for Ecosystem services Based on both Ecosystem functions and forest products

14 Perspective

15 Case study Decision making on where and how to implement afforestation and reforestation measures will not only help to secure carbon sequestration, but also benefit biodiversity conservation and the provision of ecosystem services (so-called co-benefits ). Spatial analyses with spatial specific datasets on carbon, biodiversity and ecosystem services can be served as an effective tool to explore co-benefits and guide decision-making process on climate change mitigation and adaptation.

16 Study area Jiangxi Province Poyang Lake

17 Carbon, biodiversity and ecosystem services: exploring co-benefits in Jiangxi Province, China

18 Spatial distribution of TCS

19 Assessment in western China Besides MEA integrated assessment One of the 5 sub-global assessment in the world April 2001

20 Study area

21 Changes of Ecosystem Pattern

22 Status and dynamics of Ecosystems

23 Farmland Grassland Water body Provisioning services

24 9.0E E E E 荒漠 水体 湿地 农田 草地 森林 年份 Economic valuation of Ecosystem services (Yuan)

25 Connection between ecosystem services and human wellbeing Conflict among resources, environment, and economic in development of Western China, the activities increase these conflicts: Primary forest products and grazing from grassland increase the conflicts; Quick development of economics and dissertation; Increase soil erosion; Resources exploration and disaster frequently happened. And so on.

26 Ecosystem investigated assessment during the past 10 yrs National scale, RS and field survey, changes of ES from 2000, 2005, to 2010 Main Goals Dynamics of B& ES status; Dynamics of soil retention capacity; Dynamics ofwater conservation capacity; Dynamics of Sand-fixation ability Dynamics of Carbon fixation capacity; Comprehensive analysis on ES status dynamics;

27 October 2012, member January 2013, First session of Plenary at Bonn, Germany Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) October 2012, member January 2013, First session of Plenary at Bonn.

28 IPBES Submit a public welfare project proposal Investigate the research processes include scale, methodology, study area on B&ES; Review the related researches in China; Establish evaluation methodology to conduct B&ES assessment; Research on typical demonstration area according their special situations Shouqu wetlands in the Yellow River; Loess Plateau; and Wuyishan Mt..
