    3. Tier 3

    What, amongst the following, statements, is a drawback about mapping and assessment ecosystem services?

    2. Visualization of trade-offs and synergies among ecosystem services
    3. Identification of hotspots and problematic areas for applying measures or for implementing specific environmental management issues

    3. Use them when we do not have enough information about the considered ecosystem services

    What is the critical issue when aggregating, for mapping, data about ecosystem services within artificial boundaries? (tick the most appropriate answer)

    2. Paying attention to the accuracy on the input data and variables
    3. Considering that the choice of the artificial boundary can affect the meaning of the map
