  8. MODES: a MODular Ecosystem Services model for assessing human impacts on land, air & water resources Bob McKane, Project Coordinator (EPA-WED) Marc Stieglitz & Feifei Pan (Georgia Institute of Technology) Ed Rastetter & Bonnie Kwiatkowski (Marine Biological Laboratory) Nathan Schumaker (EPA-WED), Brad McRae (NCEA), Allen Solomon (USFS), Richard Busing (USGS) Water Quality & Quantity Agricultural Ecosystem Services Wildlife Populations Forest Ecosystem Services Air Quality & Greenhouse Gases Habitat Quality

  9. Greenhouse Gases Forest Products Ag Products Wildlife Human Well-Being Water Quality & Quantity • The Problem: • Human actions affect multiple ecosystem services • No single model can capture all stressor effects & ES trade-offs Aquatic Life

  10. Stressors • Land Use • Urban • Agriculture • Forestry • Global Change • Climate • CO2 • N deposition • Chemicals • Fertilizers • Pesticides • Toxics • Terrestrial Services • Ag products • Forest products • C sequestration • Nutrient regulation • GHG regulation • Wildlife Aquatic Services • Drinking water • Flood mitigation • Aquatic life Multi-Model Approach MODES Models Wildlife Populations Plant Communities Biogeochemistry Hydrology Stressors Effects

  11. 12 MODES

  12. MODES Philosophy Modular: different models for different suites of eco services Process-Based: link effects to stressors (GCC, land use…) Simple: few parameters & drivers Broad Applicability: ag, forest, grassland, tundra… Flexible Scales: plots  watersheds, days  centuries Regulatory & Planning Goals Best Management Practices: balancing multiple eco services Water Quality: nutrients, contaminants Water Quantity: too little, too much Greenhouse gases: CO2, N2O, NOx… Habitat & Wildlife: effects of land use & toxics

  13. MODES suite of models Climate: *PRISM – high resolution climate data *SNOPACK – snow accumulation, drifting & melt SOILTEMP – soil temperature & permafrost freeze/thaw Hydrology: *GT –spatially distributed land surface hydrology Stream Network– streamflow accumulation & nutrient attenuation Biogeochemistry: *MEL – C, N, P, H2O cycling in plants & soils *PSM – plant & soil C & N, losses of DIN, DON *NESIS – stable isotope simulator Wildlife Habitat & Populations *FORCLIM – plant community / habitat dynamics *PATCH – wildlife population dynamics *Developed or modified through EPA-WED
