Spatio-temporal dynamics of ecosystem service value functions in response to landscape fragmentation in Boma-Gambella trans-boundary landscape, Southwest Ethiopia and East South Su... by Azemir Berhanu Getahun, Amare Bantider Dagnew, Desalegn Yayeh Ayal

“…Utilizing integrated spatial modeling tools such as ArcGIS 10.7, FRAGSTAT 4.2, and benefit transfer approach, the research analyzes landscape fragmentation and the dynamics of ecosystem service value functions. The findings indicate a significant conversion of natural landscapes, resulting in increased fragmentation, a reduction in ecological land, altered landscape metrics and intensified trade-offs and mismatches in ecosystem service value functions. …”
