Seven different urban ecosystems have been identified: street trees; lawns/parks; urban forests; cultivated land; wetlands; lakes/sea; and streams. These systems generate a range of ecosystem services. In this paper, six local and direct services relevant for Stockholm are addressed: air filtration...
Within the national conservation framework and global agreement to preserve biological biodiversity, the Mexican federal legislation has established 182 conservation polygons, including terrestrial and marine ecosystems, as Protected Natural Areas (see SEMARNAT, 2020).

In addition to purifying water, leaching also passes nutrients to the depths of the A horizon and into the B horizon—something that is not always beneficial. In some ecosystems, leaching removes large amounts of dissolved nitrogen from the soil, and it becomes necessary to fe...
The workers of Ocean Conservancy then expanded their focus to the marine ecosystems and habitats. Ocean Conservancy is one of several organizations working toward a common goal: saving the Earth’s oceans. They have started doing this by creating the Whale Protection movement that still exists. ...
How many atmospheres of water are affected by eutrophication? Eutrophication: Eutrophication is when most soil that is primarily rich in nutrients is carried away and deposited in rivers. This increases the growth of aquatic plants, which replenishes the amount of oxygen in water, which leads to ...
