| dc.description.abstract | As the concepts of ecosystem services and payments for ecosystem services (PES) have evolved, numerous web-based resources have been created to 1) provide and exchange information about ecosystem services, and 2) facilitate transactions between those who provide ecosystem services and those who wish to compensate those providers, also commonly referred to as “buyers and sellers” of ecosystem services. In 2011, a broad internet search for web-based ecosystem services resources by the research team yielded many results which were reviewed and compiled into a catalog. In 2013, this catalog was updated with new information and made available on the project website. It provides a comprehensive listing of available resources to those interested in ecosystem services, including landowners. This fact sheet provides an overview of the different types of resources that are available in the catalog, along with points to consider while browsing them. An accompanying fact sheet highlights useful resources in each of the four categories outlined below. | en_US |
