Project Details
Description
Climate change will alter the way we utilise land across the globe and will change the rate and balance of natural processes such as carbon sequestration. As a result, the ecosystem services provided by natural systems will most likely be diminished, with consequences for human wellbeing and economic productivity. The ROBIN project (Role Of Biodiversity In climate change mitigatioN) is using novel modelling techniques to assess these future climate impacts on a range of ecosystem services. ROBIN is a EU FP7 project centred on Latin America. Its focus is on how policy can maximise carbon benefits (for REDD+ type schemes), while avoiding damage to biodiversity, other ecosystem services and preventing unforeseen consequences for human wellbeing and natural systems.
