With sea level rise?
With expanded aquaculture?
With nearshore habitat restoration?
How might a range of benefits people get from nature change:
InVEST evaluates alternative futures

•Simplest InVEST models are helping to: • frame the discussion• explore suitable, vulnerable, & important areas
•More complex InVEST models can explore trade-offs and compare alternative scenarios•A work in progress…

When do land-based activities affect success of marine resource management?
•Oyster restoration•Fisheries•Coastal protection
•Nutrient runoff•Coastal hardening•Water withdrawals
