The BIO-CAPITAL project will produce several scientific publications and various deliverable reports, as well as information material and the like. Here you will find the project results clearly organised and at a glance.

In southwest England, rivers are learning to flow free again. Through BIO-CAPITAL, scientists and conservationists explore how biodiversity gains can become visible, measurable — and valuable. In this short documentary, we follow researchers and conservationists from the BIO-CAPITAL project as they test how Earth Observation (EO) satellites can detect the ecological impact of river and wetland restoration in Cornwall and Devon. From Dartmoor wetlands to Duchy College’s living laboratories, we meet the people behind the data — Rachel, Harold, Gemma and Lawrence — and discover how “natural capital” could redefine the relationship between ecology and economy.

Can we create reliable, science-based certificates for biodiversity gains – and ensure they don’t repeat the mistakes of carbon markets? In this Deep Dive session, Flore Bastelica from Carbone 4 explains the evolving landscape of Biodiversity Certificates and their role in future biocapital markets.

How can we measure the true value of nature — not only in euros, but in ecosystems and social wellbeing? In this Deep Dive session, Diana Tomakh from GND Partners introduces Triple Capital Accounting (TCA), a framework that expands traditional financial accounting to include natural and social capital alongside financial performance.

Can insurance help protect biodiversity? In this first episode of the BIO-CAPITAL Deep Dive series, Ahmet Rasim Demirtaş from Agcurate BV introduces parametric insurance — a data-driven risk-transfer mechanism that pays out automatically when measurable environmental “triggers” occur.

How can we reward land managers for protecting biodiversity and ecosystem services? In this Deep Dive, the AgroSolutions team explains how Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) create financial incentives for farmers, foresters and landowners to adopt biodiversity-friendly practices.
