This large-scale land-use change has had great ecological, economic, and social impacts on both the areas converted to oil palm and their surroundings. However, research on the impacts of oil palm cultivation is scattered and patchy, and no clear overview exists. We address this gap through a systematic and comprehensive literature review of all ecosystem functions in oil palm plantations, including several (genetic, medicinal and ornamental resources, information functions) not included in previous systematic reviews. We compare ecosystem functions in oil palm plantations to those in forests, as the conversion of forest to oil palm is prevalent in the tropics. We find that oil palm plantations generally have reduced ecosystem functioning compared to forests: 11 out of 14 ecosystem functions show a net decrease in level of function. Some functions show decreases with potentially irreversible global impacts (e.g. reductions in gas and climate regulation, habitat and nursery functions, genetic resources, medicinal resources, and information functions). The most serious impacts occur when forest is cleared to establish new plantations, and immediately afterwards, especially on peat soils. To variable degrees, specific plantation management measures can prevent or reduce losses of some ecosystem functions (e.g. avoid illegal land clearing via fire, avoid draining of peat, use of integrated pest management, use of cover crops, mulch, and compost) and we highlight synergistic mitigation measures that can improve multiple ecosystem functions simultaneously. The only ecosystem function which increases in oil palm plantations is, unsurprisingly, the production of marketable goods. Our review highlights numerous research gaps. In particular, there are significant gaps with respect to socio-cultural information functions. Further, there is a need for more empirical data on the importance of spatial and temporal scales, such as differences among plantations in different environments, of different sizes, and of different ages, as our review has identified examples where ecosystem functions vary spatially and temporally. Finally, more research is needed on developing management practices that can offset the losses of ecosystem functions. Our findings should stimulate research to address the identified gaps, and provide a foundation for more systematic research and discussion on ways to minimize the negative impacts and maximize the positive impacts of oil palm cultivation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/brv.12295"],["dc.identifier.fs","621226"],["dc.identifier.gro","3148957"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27511961"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/14337"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5600"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Wiegand Crossref Import"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation","SFB 990: Ökologische und sozioökonomische Funktionen tropischer Tieflandregenwald-Transformationssysteme (Sumatra, Indonesien)"],["dc.relation","SFB 990 | B | B10: Landschaftsbezogene Bewertung der ökologischen und sozioökonomischen Funktionen von Regenwald- Transformationssystemen in Sumatra (Indonesien)"],["dc.relation.issn","1464-7931"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Ökosystemmodellierung"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Bioklimatologie"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/"],["dc.subject.gro","Elaeis guineensis"],["dc.subject.gro","biodiversity"],["dc.subject.gro","ecosystem functions"],["dc.subject.gro","ecosystem services"],["dc.subject.gro","land-use change"],["dc.subject.gro","oil palm"],["dc.subject.gro","sfb990_journalarticles"],["dc.title","A review of the ecosystem functions in oil palm plantations, using forests as a reference system"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC2019Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","1854"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","11"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Methods in Ecology and Evolution"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","1863"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","10"],["dc.contributor.author","Salecker, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Sciaini, Marco"],["dc.contributor.author","Meyer, Katrin M."],["dc.contributor.author","Wiegand, Kerstin"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-10T18:26:41Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-10T18:26:41Z"],["dc.date.issued","2019"],["dc.description.abstract","1.Agent-based models find wide application in all fields of science where large scale patterns emerge from properties of individuals. Due to increasing capacities of computing resources it was possible to improve the level of detail and structural realism of next-generation models in recent years. However, this is at the expense of increased model complexity, which requires more efficient tools for model exploration, analysis and documentation that enable reproducibility, repeatability and parallelisation. NetLogo is a widely used environment for agent-based model development, but it does not provide sufficient built-in tools for extensive model exploration, such as sensitivity analyses. One tool for controlling NetLogo externally is the R-package RNetLogo. However, this package is not suited for efficient, reproducible research as it has stability and resource allocation issues, is not straightforward to be setup and used on high performance computing clusters and does not provide utilities, such as storing and exchanging metadata, in an easy way. 2.We present the R-package nlrx, which overcomes stability and resource allocation issues by running NetLogo simulations via dynamically created XML experiment files. Class objects make setting up experiments more convenient and helper functions provide many parameter exploration approaches, such as Latin Hypercube designs, Sobol sensitivity analyses or optimization approaches. Output is automatically collected in user-friendly formats and can be post-processed with provided utility functions. nlrx enables reproducibility by storing all relevant information and simulation output of experiments in one R object which can conveniently be archived and shared. 3.We provide a detailed description of the nlrx package functions and the overall workflow. We also present a use case scenario using a NetLogo model, for which we performed a sensitivity analysis and a genetic algorithm optimization. 4.The nlrx package is the first framework for documentation and application of reproducible NetLogo simulation model analysis."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100001659"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/2041-210X.13286"],["dc.identifier.issn","2041-210X"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16518"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/76155"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation","SFB 990: Ökologische und sozioökonomische Funktionen tropischer Tieflandregenwald-Transformationssysteme (Sumatra, Indonesien)"],["dc.relation","SFB 990 | B | B10: Landschaftsbezogene Bewertung der ökologischen und sozioökonomischen Funktionen von Regenwald- Transformationssystemen in Sumatra (Indonesien)"],["dc.relation.issn","2041-210X"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Zentrum für Biodiversität und Nachhaltige Landnutzung"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Ökosystemmodellierung"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.subject.gro","agent-based modelling"],["dc.subject.gro","individual-based modelling"],["dc.subject.gro","reproducible workflow"],["dc.subject.gro","R package"],["dc.subject.gro","NetLogo"],["dc.subject.gro","sfb990_journalarticles"],["dc.title","The nlrx r package: A next‐generation framework for reproducible NetLogo model analyses"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2019Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","125"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","4"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Current Landscape Ecology Reports"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","138"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","4"],["dc.contributor.author","Paul, Carola"],["dc.contributor.author","Reith, Esther"],["dc.contributor.author","Salecker, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Knoke, Thomas"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-01-30T16:25:50Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-01-30T16:25:50Z"],["dc.date.issued","2019"],["dc.description.abstract","Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to analyse recent advances in ecological-economic modelling designed to inform desirable landscape composition and configuration. We explore how models capture the economic and ecological consequences of landscape pattern, and potential feedbacks to the responses by policy or landholders. Recent Findings Modelling approaches are becoming increasingly interlinked, coupling components of empirical-statistical modelling, spatial and bioeconomic simulation, land-use optimization and agent-based models. We analyse recent methodological advances and find that only few examples capture feedbacks between landscape pattern and decision-making. Summary We outline how future hybrid models could build on these recent advances by inter alia an improved representation of landscape patterns, refining the theory behind decision-making, incorporating uncertainty and reducing model complexity. We conclude that coupling recent developments in land-use optimization and agent-based models may help bridge gaps between modelling philosophies as well as parsimony vs. complexity.

Many predictive modelling approaches have been developed to estimate the distribution of biodiversity over various spatial scales. Community modelling techniques may offer many benefits over single species modelling. However, techniques capable of estimating precise species makeups of communities are highly data intensive and thus often limited in their applicability. Here we present an R package, spectre, which can predict regional community composition at a fine spatial resolution using only sparsely sampled biological data. The package can predict the presences and absences of all species in an area, both known and unknown, at the sample site scale. Underlying the spectre package is a min-conflicts optimisation algorithm that predicts species' presences and absences throughout an area using estimates of α-, β- and γ-diversity. We demonstrate the utility of the spectre package using a spatially-explicit simulated ecosystem to assess the accuracy of the package's results. spectre offers a simple to use tool with which to accurately predict community compositions across varying scales, facilitating further research and knowledge acquisition into this fundamental aspect of ecology."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/ecog.06272"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/116496"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.issn","0906-7590"],["dc.relation.issn","1600-0587"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Ökosystemmodellierung"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Zentrum für Biodiversität und Nachhaltige Landnutzung"],["dc.rights","CC BY 3.0"],["dc.title","spectre: an R package to estimate spatially‐explicit community composition using sparse data"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI2018Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.artnumber","e0190506"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","1"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","PLOS ONE"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","13"],["dc.contributor.author","Dislich, Claudia"],["dc.contributor.author","Hettig, Elisabeth"],["dc.contributor.author","Salecker, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Heinonen, Johannes"],["dc.contributor.author","Lay, Jann"],["dc.contributor.author","Meyer, Katrin M."],["dc.contributor.author","Wiegand, Kerstin"],["dc.contributor.author","Tarigan, Suria"],["dc.date.accessioned","2019-07-09T11:45:08Z"],["dc.date.available","2019-07-09T11:45:08Z"],["dc.date.issued","2018"],["dc.description.abstract","Land-use changes have dramatically transformed tropical landscapes. We describe an ecological-economic land-use change model as an integrated, exploratory tool used to analyze how tropical land-use change affects ecological and socio-economic functions. The model analysis seeks to determine what kind of landscape mosaic can improve the ensemble of ecosystem functioning, biodiversity, and economic benefit based on the synergies and trade-offs that we have to account for. More specifically, (1) how do specific ecosystem functions, such as carbon storage, and economic functions, such as household consumption, relate to each other? (2) How do external factors, such as the output prices of crops, affect these relationships? (3) How do these relationships change when production inefficiency differs between smallholder farmers and learning is incorporated? We initialize the ecological-economic model with artificially generated land-use maps parameterized to our study region. The economic sub-model simulates smallholder land-use management decisions based on a profit maximization assumption. Each household determines factor inputs for all household fields and decides on land-use change based on available wealth. The ecological sub-model includes a simple account of carbon sequestration in above-ground and below-ground vegetation. We demonstrate model capabilities with results on household consumption and carbon sequestration from different output price and farming efficiency scenarios. The overall results reveal complex interactions between the economic and ecological spheres. For instance, model scenarios with heterogeneous crop-specific household productivity reveal a comparatively high inertia of land-use change. Our model analysis even shows such an increased temporal stability in landscape composition and carbon stocks of the agricultural area under dynamic price trends. These findings underline the utility of ecological-economic models, such as ours, to act as exploratory tools which can advance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the trade-offs and synergies of ecological and economic functions in tropical landscapes."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1371/journal.pone.0190506"],["dc.identifier.pmid","29351290"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/15038"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/59163"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation","SFB 990: Ökologische und sozioökonomische Funktionen tropischer Tieflandregenwald-Transformationssysteme (Sumatra, Indonesien)"],["dc.relation","SFB 990 | B | B10: Landschaftsbezogene Bewertung der ökologischen und sozioökonomischen Funktionen von Regenwald- Transformationssystemen in Sumatra (Indonesien)"],["dc.relation.issn","1932-6203"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Ökosystemmodellierung"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Zentrum für Biodiversität und Nachhaltige Landnutzung"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.subject.ddc","570"],["dc.subject.gro","sfb990_journalarticles"],["dc.subject.mesh","Arecaceae"],["dc.subject.mesh","Carbon Sequestration"],["dc.subject.mesh","Conservation of Natural Resources"],["dc.subject.mesh","Crops, Agricultural"],["dc.subject.mesh","Ecosystem"],["dc.subject.mesh","Models, Theoretical"],["dc.subject.mesh","Palm Oil"],["dc.subject.mesh","Tropical Climate"],["dc.title","Land-use change in oil palm dominated tropical landscapes-An agent-based model to explore ecological and socio-economic trade-offs."],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC2015-06Working Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.seriesnr","16"],["dc.contributor.author","Dislich, Claudia"],["dc.contributor.author","Keyel, Alexander C."],["dc.contributor.author","Salecker, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Kisel, Yael"],["dc.contributor.author","Meyer, Katrin M."],["dc.contributor.author","Corre, Marife D."],["dc.contributor.author","Faust, Heiko"],["dc.contributor.author","Hess, Bastian"],["dc.contributor.author","Knohl, Alexander"],["dc.contributor.author","Kreft, Holger"],["dc.contributor.author","Meijide, Ana"],["dc.contributor.author","Nurdiansyah, Fuad"],["dc.contributor.author","Otten, Fenna"],["dc.contributor.author","Pe’er, Guy"],["dc.contributor.author","Steinebach, Stefanie"],["dc.contributor.author","Tarigan, Suria"],["dc.contributor.author","Tscharntke, Teja"],["dc.contributor.author","Tölle, Merja"],["dc.contributor.author","Wiegand, Kerstin"],["dc.date.accessioned","2022-05-19T10:11:54Z"],["dc.date.available","2022-05-19T10:11:54Z"],["dc.date.issued","2015-06"],["dc.description.abstract","Oil palm plantations have expanded rapidly in the last decades.

Often these models depend on detailed input data, such as initial land-cover maps to set up model simulations. Here we present the landscape generator EFFortS-LGraf that provides artificially-generated land-use maps of agricultural landscapes shaped by small-scale farms. EFForTS-LGraf is a process-based landscape generator that explicitly incorporates the human dimension of land-use change. The model generates roads and villages that consist of smallholder farming households. These smallholders use different establishment strategies to create fields in their close vicinity. Crop types are distributed to these fields based on crop fractions and specialization levels. EFForTS-LGraf model parameters such as household area or field size frequency distributions can be derived from household surveys or geospatial data. This can be an advantage over the abstract parameters of neutral landscape generators. We tested the model using oil palm and rubber farming in Indonesia as a case study and validated the artificially-generated maps against classified satellite images.

Often these models depend on detailed input data, such as initial land-cover maps to set up model simulations. Here we present the landscape generator EFFortS- LGraf that provides artificially-generated land-use maps of agricultural landscapes shaped by small- scale farms. EFForTS-LGraf is a process-based landscape generator that explicitly incorporates the human dimension of land-use change. The model generates roads and villages that consist of smallholder farming households. These smallholders use different establishment strategies to create fields in their close vicinity. Crop types are distributed to these fields based on crop fractions and specialization levels. EFForTS-LGraf model parameters such as household area or field size frequency distributions can be derived from household surveys or geospatial data. This can be an advantage over the abstract parameters of neutral landscape generators. We tested the model using oil palm and rubber farming in Indonesia as a case study and validated the artificially-generated maps against classified satellite images. Our results show that EFForTS-LGraf is able to generate realistic land-cover maps with properties that lie within the boundaries of landscapes from classified satellite images. An applied simulation experiment on landscape-level effects of increasing household area and crop specialization revealed that larger households with higher specialization levels led to spatially more homogeneous and less scattered crop type distributions and reduced edge area proportion. Thus, EFForTS-LGraf can be applied both to generate maps as inputs for simulation modelling and as a stand-alone tool for specific landscape-scale analyses in the context of ecological-economic studies of smallholder farming systems."],["dc.format.extent","37"],["dc.identifier.ppn","1665217219"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/108110"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.publisher","SFB 990, University of Göttingen; GOEDOC, Dokumenten- und Publikationsserver der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen"],["dc.publisher.place","Göttingen"],["dc.relation","SFB 990: Ökologische und sozioökonomische Funktionen tropischer Tieflandregenwald-Transformationssysteme (Sumatra, Indonesien)"],["dc.relation","SFB 990 | B | B10: Landschaftsbezogene Bewertung der ökologischen und sozioökonomischen Funktionen von Regenwald- Transformationssystemen in Sumatra (Indonesien)"],["dc.relation.crisseries","EFForTS Discussion Paper Series"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Johann-Friedrich-Blumenbach-Institut für Zoologie und Anthropologie"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 4.0"],["dc.subject.gro","landscape generator; agent-based model; ABM; NetLogo; process-based; Indonesia"],["dc.subject.gro","sfb990_discussionpaperseries"],["dc.title","EFForTS-LGraf"],["dc.title.subtitle","A Landscape Generator for Creating Smallholder-Driven Land-Use Mosaics"],["dc.type","working_paper"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details2014Poster [["dc.contributor.author","Salecker, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Meyer, Katrin M."],["dc.contributor.author","Wiegand, Kerstin"],["dc.date.accessioned","2020-12-08T11:09:20Z"],["dc.date.available","2020-12-08T11:09:20Z"],["dc.date.issued","2014"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/69483"],["dc.relation.eventlocation","Hildesheim"],["dc.relation.eventstart","2014"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Ökosystemmodellierung"],["dc.title","Black Poplar Population Persistence"],["dc.type","poster"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details
