Ecosystem Service Valuation

Ecosystem services (ES) of the biological resources are the foundation for human survival and development, but due to frequent interferences of human activities and high rate of population increasing, biological resources have been severely damaged. The occupation of the value of ecosystem services makes the biodiversity receiving more and more threats. Therefore, protection and management of ecosystem services has become more and more urgent. Through evaluation of the values of ecosystem services at the spatial and temporal scales in a strategic environmental assessment (SEA) framework, we may assess the influences of government policies, programs and plans on ecosystem services more efficiently. In this paper we presented on the method for ecosystem service valuation and involving stakeholders and decision-makers in SEA Processes. Then put forward the evaluation procedure framework of integrating ecosystem service into strategic environmental assessment.

Ecosystem Service Valuation

Federal agencies invest taxpayer dollars every year in conservation programs that are focused on improving a suite of ecosystem services produced on private lands. A better understanding of the public benefits generated by federal conservation programs could help improve governmental efficiency and economic welfare by providing science-based evidence for use in policy decision-making regarding targeting of federal conservation investments. Of specific concern here are conservation investments made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). While previous research has shown that efficiency gains are possible using cost-benefit analysis for targeting conservation investments, agency-wide implementation of this approach by policy makers has been constrained by the limited availability of location-specific information regarding conservation benefits. Cost-effective opportunities for integrating location-specific ecosystem service valuation research with USDA conservation decision-making include: (1) institutionalizing funding of comparable studies suitable for benefit transfer, (2) utilizing non-traditional data sources for research complementing benefit transfer, and (3) creating a state-of-the-art program for developing and communicating research in ecosystem service valuation exemplifying the highest standards of scientific conduct.
