Thailand is a one of the nation in Southeast Asia, covered by numerous mangrove areas approximately 244,000 hectares. Phetchaburi province is the one of the province in Thailand where the mangrove area has been increasing continually since King’s Royally Initiated Laem Phak Bia Environmental Research and Development Project has been set up. The mangrove ecosystems functions are vital to the livelihood of the surrounding community. Laem Phak Bia community is one that has been served from mangrove ecosystem services. This study assessed the economic value of Laem Phak Bia mangrove ecosystem services in an area approximately 237.44 hectares using Participatory Economic Valuation (PEV) by the villagers ranking and rating the importance of mangrove ecosystem services with a valuable thing for living that is the rice value. The results showed that this mangrove area was worth a total economic value about 100 million Baht per year or 424 thousand Baht per hectares per year. It could be divided into the value of regulation functions, production functions, habitat functions and information functions, which were about 38, 8, 25, and 29 million Baht per year, respectively.

Mangrove ecosystems become an important ecosystem for the community of Mandah district, this is because the community uses the mangrove ecosystem as a producer of mangrove wood, as well as a place to catch fish, shrimp, and crabs. Therefore, it is important to maintain the sustainability of mangrove ecosystems in multiple ways; one option is by providing an economic report regarding the mangrove ecosystem. The purpose of this study is to estimate the economic value of mangrove ecosystems. This research was conducted in Mandah District using the survey method. Data analysis using economic valuation by calculating the total economic value of mangrove ecosystem services, comprising: supporting services, provisioning services, regulating services, and cultural services. The results showed that the total economic value of mangrove ecosystem services which has an area of 31,007 Ha amounting to IDR 6,100,130,675,685/year or IDR 196,733,985/Ha/year consisting of the value of supporting services amounting to IDR 2,843,521,034,280/year, the value of provisioning services IDR 120,274,922,887/year, the cost of regulatory services is IDR 3,132,894,718,518/year, and the value of cultural services is IDR 3,440,000,000/year. The high economic value of regulating and supporting services indicates that the mangrove ecosystem has a high value of environmental services, so it needs to be preserved and the sustainability of the mangrove ecosystem to remain of high economic value.

Pada tahun 1980an, Pulau Tanakeke memiliki kawasan ekosistem mangrove seluas kurang lebih 1.770 hektar. Namun, dalam kurun 1980an-2000an, luasan tersebut berkurang hingga 60 persen akibat dari pemanfaatan yang tidak terkendali oleh masyarakat sehingga terjadi perubahan lingkungan. Tulisan ini bertujuan mengkaji posisi sumber daya mangrove terhadap pengelolaan saat ini dengan mengestimasi nilai manfaat dan kerugian yang diterima masyarakat dari adanya pemanfaatan mangrove. Pengumpulan data primer dilakukan melalui metode survei dengan 40 responden pemanfaat mangrove. Analisis data menggunakan teknik valuasi ekonomi sumber daya alam dan lingkungan. Hasil analisis yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa nilai manfaat ekonomi ekosistem mangrove masih lebih besar dibandingkan dengan nilai kerugian yang timbul. Hasil analisis tersebut berimplikasi pada dua hal: 1) yaitu di satu sisi membuktikan bahwa ekosistem mangrove di Pulau Tanakeke memberikan kontribusi ekonomi yang cukup besar bagi masyarakat, 2) tetapi di sisi lain, nilai manfaat yang cukup besar tersebut dapat menjadi insentif bagi masyarakat untuk semakin ekspansif mengeksploitasi ekosistem mangrove sehingga dapat menjadi peluang ancaman bagi kelestarian ekosistem mangrove di Pulau Tanakeke apabila tidak dikelola dengan seksama.Title: Analysis of Benefits and Losses Value of Mangrove Ecosystem Uses in Tanakeke Island, South SulawesiIn the 1980s, Tanakeke Island had around 1,770 hectares of mangrove area. However, within a period of time 1980s-2000s, this area has reduced nearly 60 percent due to uncontrolled utilization by community resulting in environmental changes. This study aims to examine the position of mangrove resource towards existing management by estimating benefits and losses of mangrove utilization. Primary data were collected through a survey from 40 respondents of mangrove beneficiaries. Data were analysed using the resource and enviromental economic valuation techniques. The results indicate that the total economic value of mangrove ecosystem is greater than the losses value. This finding led to two implications: on one side, it is proved that the mangrove ecosystem in Tanakeke Island gives economic contribution in a considerable amount to the community. However, on the other side, this high value of benefits leads to an increasing exploitation of the mangrove ecosystem. Therefore, this condition could be a threat to the sustainability of mangrove ecosystem in Tanakeke Island if it is not managed carefully

Coastal and marine ecosystem (CME) services provide benefits to people through direct goods and services that may be harvested or enjoyed in situ and indirect services that regulate and support biological and geophysical processes now and in the future. In the past two decades, there has been an increase in the number of studies and journal articles designed to measure the economic value of the world’s CME services, although there is significantly less published research than for terrestrial ecosystems. This article provides a review of the literature on valuation of CME services along with a discussion of the theoretical and practical challenges that must be overcome to utilize valuation results in CME policy and planning at local, regional, and global scales. The review reveals that significant gaps exist in research and understanding of the broad range of CME services and their economic values. It also raises questions about the validity of aggregating ecosystem services as independent components to determine the value of a biome when there is little understanding of the relationships and feedbacks between ecosystems and the services they produce. Finally, the review indicates that economic valuation of CME services has had a negligible impact on the policy process in four main regions around the world. An alternative direction for CME services research would focus on valuing the world’s CME services in a wealth accounting framework.

Economic valuation of marine ecosystem services is strongly anchored within the logic of Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). An inventory and critical assessment of marine valuation studies was conducted within the European Union funded Policy-oriented marine Environmental Research for the Southern European Seas (PERSEUS) research project ( http://www.perseus-net.eu/ ) and this information was fed into a suitable, spatially explicit valuation database, namely Valuation database for Marine Ecosystem Services of Southern European Seas (V-MESSES), with the objective of providing monetary values for Southern European Seas (SES) to be used in cost–benefit and cost-effectiveness applications. At present, the database contains 93 studies offering over 110 value estimates for four categories and 20 subcategories of marine ecosystem services covering all regions of Mediterranean and Black Sea. The database enables so far the estimation of the aggregated value of all ecosystem services. However, the selection of appropriate, policy relevant value estimates is not a simple and straightforward task, since several conditions should be met in order to conduct effective and efficient value transfers. Bearing in mind the above limitations, tentative reference value estimates are compiled from the V-MESSES database for a number of coastal and marine ecosystem services, although not all service categories are covered sufficiently.

<p>The objective of this paper is to obtain the monetary value of ecosystem services provided by the Turia Natural Park (TNP). This paper proposes the use of the Analytic Multicriteria Valuation Method (AMUVAM) by replacing the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with the Analytic Network Process (ANP), since the ANP method allows to analyze interdependence relationships between the services provided by a system. The results express that the economic value of the ecosystem services associated to the TNP ranges between 163,946,752 € and 481,549,597 €. The results reveal distinct patterns in the valuation of the existing services due to ethical issues.</p>

Introduction/Main Objectives: This study estimates how much economic value will be lost from contact activities within the coastal areas in the research location. Background Problems: The area of Semarang City has flood and tidal problems, the damage to the mangrove forests in Semarang City began with the boom in shrimp farming between 1980 and 1990. Hopefully, this valuation can provide an overview of the current health of the ecosystem and become the basis for a mangrove management strategy in the future. Novelty: The novelty of this study is that it uses a sharper satellite (Image Pleades Resolution 0.5 m) to calculate the mangrove area in the research location. Research Methods: This research uses a total economic valuation, an estimation of the mangrove’s carbon stock and heavy metals, the replacement cost to prevent tidal flooding, and the willingness to pay. Findings/Results: We find that the existing economic value in the study area is very large and should be preserved for conservation. Conclusion: The environment cannot produce something instantly, but it needs to be preserved as a balance to nature.

Ekosistem mangrove mengalami tekanan dan penurunan jasa lingkungan diduga karena abrasi dan fenomena alam serta aktivitas masyarakat seperti penggalian pasir di pesisir pantai. Pemerintah telah melakukan upaya konservasi hutan mangrove dengan cara penanaman kembali, namun belum berhasil. Salah satu permasalahan adalah belum atau tidak adanya informasi nilai ekonomi mangrove sebagai dasar penentuan program konservasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui nilai ekonomi ekosistem mangrove di pesisir Laut Arafura meliputi 3 distrik yaitu Malind, Merauke dan Naukenjerai. Metode yang digunakan yaitu TEV (Total Economic Value) yang terdiri dari analisis nilai guna langsung menggunakan harga pasar. Nilai guna tidak langsung dan nilai pilihan menggunakan benefit transfer. Nilai non guna yang terdiri dari nilai keberadaan dan nilai pewarisan menggunakan WTP (willingness to pay). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai ekonomi hutan mangrove di kawasan pesisir pantai Laut Arafura per tahun sebesar Rp. 213.344.656.759,00 (213 Milyar Rupiah) atau setara dengan Rp. 21.075.240,00/ha/tahun atau setara dengan Rp. 8,6 juta rupiah per kepala keluarga. Title: Economic Valuation In The Coastal Mangrove Ecosystem District MeraukeEcosystem mangrove in Araufra Coastal had underpressure and decreasing environmental services because of abration as natural phenomena, and unsuistainable community activities such as digging sand on the coast. The Government has made the conservation of mangrove forests by replanting, but has not succeeded. One of the problems is not yet or absence of information about the economic value of mangroves as the basis for determining the conservation program. This study aims to determine the economic value of the mangrove ecosystem in the Arafura Sea coast in three districts: Malind, Merauke and Naukenjerai. The methodology using TEV (Total Economic Value) consisting of direct use value analysis using market prices. Indirect use values and the options value using the benefits transfer. Non-use value consist the existence and bequest value using WTP (willingness to pay). The result showed that the economic value of mangrove forests in the coastal regions of the Arafura Sea is Rp. 213.344.656.759,00 (213 billion rupiah per year) or equivalent with Rp. 21.075.240,00/ha/year, or equivalent with Rp. 8,6 million per household.

Ciletuh Bay has a natural magnificence that attracts local and foreign tourists. Tourist interest was reflected by the many visits demanding the government manage it properly to achieve social, economic, and ecological sustainability. Research on the assessment of cultural ecosystem services in Ciletuh Bay has not been carried out. At the same time, this is necessary for policymakers to maintain sustainable Ciletuh Bay coastal ecotourism. This study aims to estimate the value of cultural ecosystem services in Ciletuh Bay in two ways. The first method is assessing the balance of supply and demand for cultural ecosystem services that adopt the Burkhard Model, namely through individual preferences for the beauty of several types of landscapes in Ciletuh Bay. The second assessment is an economic valuation using the travel cost method (TCM). The results showed that the balance of supply and demand for cultural ecosystem services in Ciletuh Bay contained several types of landscapes in unstable conditions. The economic value of Ciletuh Bay coastal ecotourism is IDR 862,640,124,311.00/year or IDR 77,911,861.00/ha/year.
