Popis: Chapter 6 is the main analytical part of the book and forms the basis for the following synthetic chapters. It presents the entire path of indicator development for the evaluation of ES potentials in the postglacial landscape. Altogether, 29 ecosystem services were assessed by means of 35 indicators. Services are arranged firstly according to the type of assessment (expert/social), and then follow CICES V5.1 classification and coding. In expert assessment provisioning and regulating services were taken into account while cultural services were evaluated through social assessment. All subchapters devoted to particular services comprise: ES description (a table with ES location in CICES V5.1, indicator metadata, and briefly mentioned data sources), theoretical framework, assessment method and indicator values. Each subchapter ends with a map showing ES potential in the study area. Additionally, all services assessed for ecosystems in the narrow sense have their spatial pattern described by means of landscape metrics.
