Climate change effects on ecosystem services supply & demand: an updated synthesis — Data

Published by Climate Adaptation Science Centers | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: July 18, 2025 | Last Modified: 2021-04-27
Climate change is a pervasive and growing global threat to nature’s contributions to people. To inform proactive adaptation actions and research priorities, it is important to periodically synthesize peer-reviewed evidence of observed and projected climate effects on ecosystem services. By systematically reviewing journal articles that were published between 2014 and 2018, we aimed to identify trends and gaps in recent assessments of climate effects on ecosystem service supply, demand, and monetary value. In addition to recording direct climate impacts, we extracted data regarding climate interactions with non-climate drivers, study context (e.g., spatial scale, location, ecosystem) and methodology, characteristics and interactions between services, whether and how uncertainty was assessed, and implications for decision-making. While biased and constrained by excluding articles published in non-English languages and grey literature, this data spreadsheet compiles summary information and relevant literature for managers, decision-makers, researchers, and planners.
