Abstract

Since the publication of Costanza's famous article in Nature in 1997,evaluation of ecosystem services has been one of the hottest and most debated issues in the field of ecology and ecological economics.It distinguish between ecosystem functions and ecosystem services,founded that,more Concerned about the integrity of ecosystems and more ignoring the interactions between ecosystem elements,in order that,there was many risk in the evaluation of ecosystem services,our study should concerned the dynamic analysis of space-time on ecosystem services,on the basis of Combined with mathematical models and understanding of complex ecological mechanisms of ecosystem,we also attach importance to ecosystem services how to feedback the disturbance of the climate change,economic development,environmental pollution,urbanization and human activities,overgrazing and excessive cultivation caused soil erosion,environmental degradation,desertification,land use change and so on,Further analysis and prediction of ecosystem services and the response of the profit and loss;through long-term experiments monitoring,we must revealed relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem,measured the marginal benefit of land use and environmental change on biodiversity and resilience values of biodiversity On ecosystem services to achieve the precise valuation of ecosystem services.The effect of human well-being on ecosystem services particularly in the poor areas and ecologically fragile areas should be pay close attention,most of all,we should focused on the study of poverty reduced,in order to Establish a ecosystem payment mechanism,achieve sustainable development.
