Provisioning services: Products obtained from ecosystems, such as food, water, timber, and fiber.
Regulating services: Benefits obtained from the regulation of ecosystem processes, such as climate regulation, water purification, and disease control.
Supporting services: Services necessary for the production of all other ecosystem services, such as nutrient cycling, soil formation, and primary production.
Cultural services: Non-material benefits obtained from ecosystems, such as recreation, aesthetic enjoyment, and spiritual enrichment.
Ecosystem services are essential for human well-being and economic development.
The economic value of ecosystem services is often underestimated.
Loss of biodiversity can lead to the degradation of ecosystem services.
Sustainable management of ecosystems is crucial for maintaining ecosystem services.
Examples include pollination by bees, carbon sequestration by forests, and flood control by wetlands.
