The Scenarios of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services II is a follow up to the first Belmont Forum Scenarios of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services CRA.  This collaborative funding opportunity is a joint call with the Belmont Forum and BiodivERsA.

The Call will address the two following major (non-exclusive) priorities:

• Development and application of scenarios of biodiversity and ecosystem services across spatial scales of relevance to multiple types of decisions
• Consideration of multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem services in biodiversity scenarios

The call aims at supporting proposals that explicitly address a scenario dimension, taking into account the following definition of scenarios: “Scenarios of biodiversity and ecosystem services are the outputs of the combination of scenarios of indirect drivers and direct drivers — such as land use change, invasive alien species, overexploitation, climate change or pollution — and models of impacts of these drivers on biodiversity and ecosystem services.”
