Wetland Ecosystem Services - design files and hard copy now available

Greetings CEPA list members:

You may remember some time ago we notified everyone of our newly published fact sheets on Wetland Ecosystem Services. At the time these were available in PDF format here www.ramsar.org/WetlandEcosystemServices/ and we offered also higher-resolution PDFs suitable for printing and photocopying upon request.

The purpose of this message is to let you know that we now have the sheets available in printed format in a folder – to receive these please write to Montse Riera, riera@ramsar.org, with your full mailing address.

We also have the design files available on CD for those wishing to customize the fact sheets – translating them into national or local languages, including local images, or adding other locally relevant information. For the English version we have the design files available in both QuarkXPress 8.02 and Adobe InDesign; for the Spanish and French versions the design files are available in QuarkXPress 8.02. Please note that we also have the Word versions available to make the translation process easier. Please address your requests to Montse Riera.

Just to remind you, there is an introductory sheet setting the scene followed by 10 fact sheets covering:

1 Flood control
2 Groundwater replenishment
3 Shoreline stabilisation & storm protection
4 Sediment & nutrient retention and export
5 Water purification
6 Reservoirs of biodiversity
7 Wetland products
8 Cultural values
9 Recreation & tourism
10 Climate change mitigation and adaptation

With best wishes, Sandra Hails, Ramsar Secretariat
