6 Question: How can biodiversity promote Ecosystem Services leading to a higher added value? Macro-, Mesofauna Microflora Plants Mycorrhiza Biodiversity Regulating Supporting ESS Soil fertility Soil structural stability Pest control Soil water retention Aim: Identification of management options for promoting biodiversity linked ESS in order to reduce external inputs in vineyard ecosystems Provisioning ESS Grape quality
7 Viticultural soil management Disturbance gradient: Density of soil cover Vineyard Vineyard ecosystem ecosystem Macro-, Mesofauna Microflora Plants Mycorrhiza Biodiversity Regulating Supporting ESS Soil fertility Soil structural stability Pest control Soil water retention Landscape management Landscape structure gradient: Density of SNH Landscape matrix Provisioning ESS Grape quality
