| 10 years Ecological Indicators!
There is a good reason to be in good spirits: The journal ECOLOGICAL
INDICATORS has celebrated its 10th birthday! Between
August 2001 and August 2011, more than 11,000 pages on indicators
in human-environmental systems have been printed that are
1112 articles in 20 volumes and 13 special issues. Thus, a very high
portion of scientific information on quantitative tools in environmental
management and valuation has been documented, and a
high portion of this knowledge has been applied in environmental
management and scientific progress. For these reasons, several
members of the journal’s editorial board have contributed to a special
anniversary volume. It provides an overview on recent trends
in ecological indication and demonstrates the multitude of aspects
which are related to the development and application of ecological
indicators. | 154.28KB | 08.04.2015 | Margarita Grudova | LEGATO RELEVANT SCIENTIFIC PAPERS | |

| 1st RESist Workshop Summary
RESist was originally proposed as a further development of the RAT-tool designed and implemented in the ALARM project. This summary of the workshop describes the requirements of the database and the publishing site. | 103.72KB | 07.02.2012 | Volker Grescho | WP6.2 | |

 | 6.3.3.Elaboration of General Communication Strategy report
The present document formulates the general dissemination and communication strategy of the LEGATO project to respond to the complexity of stakeholder groups related to rice ecosystem management, ecological engineering and biodiversity conservation in SE Asia and Europe. The strategy identifies the target groups and users, as well as the multivalent methods of communication and dissemination of the project results. The strategy combines traditional methods of dissemination with advanced technologies, such as online tools, online open access publications, e-books, electronic newsletters, news posts on the project website and social networks, etc. | 2.3MB | 25.03.2013 | Pavel Stoev | WP6.3 | |

| A blueprint for mapping and modelling ecosystem services
The inconsistency in methods to quantify and map ecosystem services challenges the development of robust values of ecosystem services in national accounts and broader policy and natural resource management decision-making. In this paper we develop and test a blueprint to give guidance on modelling and mapping ecosystem services. The primary purpose of this blueprint is to provide a template and checklist of information needed for those beginning an ecosystem service modelling and mapping study. A secondary purpose is to provide, over time, a database of completed blueprints that becomes a valuable information resource of methods and information used in previous modelling and mapping studies. We base our blueprint on a literature review, expert opinions (as part of a related workshop organised during the 5th ESP conference2 ) and critical assessment of existing techniques used to model and map ecosystem services. While any study that models and maps ecosystem services will have its unique characteristics and will be largely driven by data and model availability, a tool such as the blueprint presented here will reduce the uncertainty associated with quantifying ecosystem services and thereby help to close the gap between theory and practice.

| A critical assessment of the importance of seedling age in the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) in Eastern India
A survey of the system of rice intensification (SRI)-related literature indicates that different authors have drawn conflicting inferences about rice yield performances under the SRI, chiefly because the SRI methodology has been variously advocated, interpreted and implemented in the field using different rice varieties, seedling ages at transplantation, cultivation seasons and nutrient management regimes. In particular, the SRI method of single-seedling transplantation (SST) has potential economic advantage due to reduced seed costs, but it is not clear whether SST is an effective management strategy across a range of seedling ages, and whether there is any specific seedling age that is optimal for yield improvement of a given rice variety. This is an important consideration in rain-fed ecosystems where variable rainfall patterns and lack of controlled irrigation make it difficult to reliably transplant at a specific seedling age as recommended for the SRI. We conducted a five year-long experiment on a rain-fed organic farm using a short-duration upland and a medium-duration lowland landrace, following the SRI methodology. Rice seedlings of different ages (6, 10, 14, 18 and 28 days after establishment) were transplanted at 25 cm × 25 cm spacing in three replicated plots. The performance for each landrace was examined with respect to productive tillers, panicle density, total grain counts per hill and grain yield per unit area. Performances of seedlings of different ages were compared with that of control plots that employed all SRI practices with the exception that 28-day-old seedlings were transplanted with three seedlings per hill. The results indicate that (1) the SRI can improve mean panicle density if seedling age ≤ 18 days, but that responses differ between varieties; (2) the number of productive tillers per hill is significantly less in SST than that of multiple seedling transplants (MST) of 28-day-old seedlings of both upland and lowland varieties; (3) the total grain numbers per hill of the lowland variety is significantly greater for 14-day-old SST than 28-day-old MST; (4) the grain yield per unit area from young SRI transplants is significantly greater than that from 28-day-old MST for the lowland variety, although the magnitude of the improvement was small; (5) for the upland variety, grain yields declined with the oldest seedlings, but planting multiple seedlings per hill made the yield of the oldest transplants on par with that of younger seedlings planted singly. Our findings suggest that transplanting younger seedlings under the SRI management may not necessarily enhance grain yields.
