虽然作为土地管理的一个结果，政策越来越强调多种生态系统服务效益，但目前大多数保护管理和立法都侧重于保护特定物种和栖息地。这些管理干预措施可能为其他生态系统服务提供多种共同惠益，但需要更多关于这些协同增效作用发生在何处的信息，以便实现这些惠益。在本文中，我们使用从结构化访谈中获得的专家数据与关键利益相关者，以研究在苏格兰，英国更广泛的生态系统服务的11种特定的保护计划的感知影响。除了一些例外情况，人们认为这些影响大多是积极或中性的，这表明在寻求管理多种生态系统服务的交付时，有许多潜在的机会。毫不奇怪，“野生物种多样性”和“环境设置”被认为是从物种保护管理中受益最多的生态系统服务。尽管将生物多样性保护和生态系统服务目标相结合有明显的好处，但仍然存在许多挑战，未来的政策和相关管理将需要解决规模问题以及成本和效益的分配问题。(C)2016年6月，作者。由爱思唯尔公司出版
While multiple ecosystem service benefits are increasingly emphasised in policy as an outcome for land management, most conservation management and legislation is currently focused on conserving specific species and habitats. These management interventions may provide multiple co-benefits for other ecosystem services but more information is needed on where these synergies occur in order to realise these benefits. In this paper, we use expert data obtained from structured interviews with key stakeholders to examine the perceived impacts of 11 species-specific conservation schemes on wider ecosystem services in Scotland, UK. With some exceptions, impacts were perceived to be mostly positive or neutral, suggesting that there are many potential opportunities when looking to manage for the delivery of multiple ecosystem services. Unsurprisingly, 'wild species diversity' and 'environmental settings' are the ecosystem services perceived to benefit the most from species conservation management. Despite the clear benefits of aligning biodiversity conservation and ecosystem service objectives, many challenges remain and future policy and associated management will need to tackle issues of scale as well as the distribution of costs and benefits.
