So applying the Ecosystem services on my case will be as the following: **a- Provisioning Services** As the main waterbody in the city, Dubai creek is the destination of all fishermen and fishing boats, and it provides the city with a good amount and diversity of seafood and it has always been the place where native emirati people used to practice their traditional profession which is pearl collecting. In the other hand, the creek park provides visitors with fresh dates that they can pick themselves from date palm trees and some other fruit trees. **b- Regulating Services** 1- Both of the forming elements help to moderate the climate in the city, due to the high density of green cover and the massive area of the waterbody through evaporation and transevaporating, regulating the air humidity. 2- And that significant number of trees helps to protect the local soil cover from erosion that could happen due to the windy atmosphere. **c- Habitat of Supporting services** Visiting the Creek park makes you be able to explore the amazing local birds that consider this park as their main local habitat, whilst this park is an important station for bird migration where they stop all around the year to refill with food from the park itself or to provide themselves with fish from the creek sides. Along with that, the creek itself is considered a huge habitat of the marine life resources and species and fishing during the year is controlled through special regulation was set by the local authorities in order to achieve the highest possible levels of sustainability. **d-Cultural Services** Dubai's residents and visitors enjoy on daily basis visiting the park and boat trips through that ecosystem that offers many experiences and activities that is actually sometimes organised by the different authorities that aim to educate people through playing and entertaining. ![Site map showing the mentioned ecosystem within the city][1] ![weekend in the park][2] ![boat trip][3] ![mental and physical relaxation][4] ![climate moderation within the city][5] [1]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14615728966481525.png [2]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14615729895620026.jpg [3]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/1461573022924648.jpg [4]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14615730741369179.jpg [5]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14615731319235013.jpg
