Ecosystem services (ES) are defined as the final outcomes of the internal structures, processes, and functions derived from ecosystems that contribute to human well-being. It is a growing and valuable concept that supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals, facilitating connections between people and nature. Nevertheless, although ES have gained representation in science and policy agendas, a gap remains between ES research and the information required to support management decisions. To fulfil this gap, this thesis contributes to highlight the pathways through which the ES concept can be made usable to decision-makers, adding information and presenting methodological approaches organized in two operationalisation facets: A) Access to reliable datasets (e.g. availability of site-specific spatial datasets), and B) support to management actions (e.g. effects of pressures on the delivery of ES). This work is focused on coastal and marine ecosystems and uses the Atlantic coastal region adjacent to the Mondego River as a case study. This region was selected due to community interest to develop environmental management proposals and the willing of local decision-makers to implement an ecosystem-based management to promote the sustainable development of the area.
