Landscape Dynamics and the Impact on Ecosystem Services Value Provided by Coastal Wetlands: An Update| Chapter 6 | Novel Perspectives of Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Vol. 4

 This study determined the dynamics of land cover changes and the mixed ecosystem services (ES) profit of coastal wetlands in northwestern Mexico. Wetlands are environments sensitive to changes in land use, moving the supply and quality of the ES they offer, and are currently in danger due to the revolutions promoted by financial activities (e.g. travel, agriculture, growing plants in liquid) to stimulate territorial development. Remote sensing methods were used to estimate change trends middle from two points 2000 and 2010, using the advantage transfer method for the economic appraisal of ES and Markov chains to model probable sketches for the years 2020, 2030 and 2050. Findings told that the ES total value flow for the period 2000-2010 fed to increase (18 million greenbacks (2007 USD)), with growing estimates of high global worth land covers, although regionally they are of low profit, as marsh/unconsolidated bottom, which raised in the estimated region during the study ending. The most notable transition probability was noticed among the unrefined wetlands, highlighting the beach and the saltmarsh (unconsolidated bottom), as the classes with the highest chance of change over time. The pertaining to the south region of the study district is the most susceptible to change, place unconsolidated bottoms and mangroves (forested saltmarsh) noticeable.
