AUTHOR'S DESCRIPTION: "In total, 19 ecosystem services metrics were identified as relevant to stakeholder objectives in the Guánica Bay watershed identified during the 2013 Public Values Forum (Table 2)...Ecological production functions were applied to translate LULC measures of ecosystem condition to supply of ecosystem services…The volume of retained rainwater per unit area (in^3/in^2) includes both the maximum soil moisture retention and the initial abstraction of water before runoff due to infiltration, evaporation, or interception by vegetation…" |
