ARIES team members Ferdinando Villa (ARIES Lead Investigator at BC3), Stefano Balbi (ARIES managing director at BC3), Kenneth Bagstad (Natural Capital Accounting Specialist at USGS), Kii Hayashi (Ecosystem Services Professor at University of Nagoya) and Alessio Bulckaen (Natural Capital Accounting Project Manager at BC3) will be part of three panels at the 2022 workshop on Earth Observation (EO) for Ecosystem Accounting (EA) next week!
