Yet, the institutional landscape that governs ES provision across multiple contexts has received less attention. We fill this research gap by developing and operationalising a framework for the analysis of policy documents that address European forest ES provision. By coding and analysing references to forest ES as well as innovations and governance mechanisms addressing these ES in national strategies on forest, biodiversity and bioeconomy, we map the institutional landscape of forest ES provision in Europe. We further analyse how biophysical supply of forest ES is connected to policies paying attention to ES and identifying innovations and governance for their provision. Innovations identified in policies centre around value chains of wood and bioenergy or biodiversity conservation, while non-wood forest products, cultural heritage, and recreation receive little attention. Biophysical supply of provisioning ES is connected to policies emphasising many innovations, while little supply of regulating ES could trigger service innovations and several new governance mechanisms. As forest ecosystems have received much attention in global, European and national sustainability policies, our institutional mapping illustrates that there is room for more use of innovations in promoting ES provision.}, language = {en} } @article{MannLoftHernandezMorcilloetal.2022, author = {Mann, Carsten and Loft, Lasse and Hern{\´a}ndez-Morcillo, M{\´o}nica and Primmer, Eeva and Bussola, Francesca and Falco, Enzo and Geneletti, Davide and Dobrowolska, Ewelina and Grossmann, Carol M. and Bottaro, Giorgia and Schleyer, Christian and Kluvankova, Tatiana and Garcia, Gino and Lovrić, Marko and Torralba, Mario and Plieninger, Tobias and Winkel, Georg}, title = {Governance Innovations for forest ecosystem service provision - Insights from an EU-wide survey}, series = {Environmental Science \& Policy}, journal = {Environmental Science \& Policy}, number = {132}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {1462-9011}, doi = {10.1016/j.envsci.2022.02.032}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:eb1-opus-4758}, pages = {282 -- 295}, year = {2022}, abstract = {This paper analyses the occurrence of governance innovations for forest ecosystem service (FES) provision in the forestry sector in Europe and the factors that influence innovation development. Based on a European-wide online survey, public and private forest owners and managers representing different property sizes indicate what type of governance innovation activities they engage in, and why. To investigate forestry innovations as systems, the analysis focuses on biophysical, social and technical factors influencing innovation development. The results of our exploratory quantitative analysis show that most innovation activities identified are largely oriented towards biomass production. Accordingly, most forest owners implement efficiency-driven optimisation strategies for forest management and technological improvement for provisioning service supply, to generate income. In contrast, the provision of regulating and cultural services is not yet a prominent part of forestry innovation activities.Reasons are rooted in a market-oriented economic rationale focusing on timber production, a lack of financial resources to compensate for other FES provisions or institutions to provide backup and security to forest owners and managers for engaging in innovation development. Given that the provision of a wide range of FES is a politically well-established objective for forest management in Europe, a strategy is needed that helps to align actors and sectors for supporting and co-financing related forest management approaches and business models. The current revision of the forest related policy framework on EU level under the EU Green deal poses a window of opportunity for better fostering novel governance approaches for more sustainable FES provision.}, language = {en} }
