Abstract

•Efficiency in the production of ecosystem services falls with changing weather.•Increased forestry inputs may not necessarily boost ecosystem services.•Disturbances favor ecosystem service efficiency.•High productivity conditions favor ecosystem service efficiency.•Productivity, ownership, treatment, site and disturbance have impact on efficiency.
