Lecciones de cuatro meta-análisis globales sobre la restauración de la biodiversidad y los servicios ecosistémicos

This research paper synthesizes results from four independent global meta-analyses to evaluate the impact of ecological restoration on biodiversity and ecosystem services (ES) across various ecosystems, specifically wetlands, agroecosystems, and forests.

• Across the analyzed global data, ecological restoration increased biodiversity by 58% and ecosystem services (ES) by 99% compared to degraded states, although these levels remained 10% and 8% lower, respectively, than reference ecosystems.
• The effectiveness of restoration varied by ecosystem type: restored wetlands showed higher biodiversity (19%) and ES (43%) than degraded ones, but ES were 13% lower than reference levels; agroecosystems saw increases in biodiversity (68%), support ES (42%), and regulation ES (120%), reaching levels similar to reference ecosystems; and forests achieved complete recovery for all ES, though biodiversity—despite a 106% increase—remained 21% below reference levels.
• The study identifies a lack of quantitative assessment of cultural ecosystem services in restored ecosystems within scientific literature and notes a positive correlation between the recovery of biodiversity and ecosystem services across all meta-analyses when comparing degraded and restored ecosystems.
