Title: Land-use model for Saint Helena
Description: The layers, presented in this WebGIS tool, map the ecosystem services - such as honey, timber, water and carbon sequestration - provided by a range of habitats on St Helena. They also show the optimal locations for expanding these services and how other ecosystem services might be positively or negatively impacted as a result of these changes. The maps were created using a stakeholder-led Bayesian network model and scenario development, which was then linked to QGIS to display the results. The work was conducted as part of the South Atlantic Natural Capital project, being implemented by the UK Joint Nature Conservation Committee and conducted by the South Atlantic Environmental Research Institute (SAERI) in the UK South Atlantic Overseas Territories. It was funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office managed Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF). All project outputs can be found at the dedicated JNCC webpage
