Valuation of ecosystem services provided by biodiversity conservation : an integrated hydrological and economic model to value the enhanced nitrogen retention in renaturated streams

Bräuer, Ingo; Marggraf, Rainer - 2004

The importance of ecosystem functions for humankind is well known. But only few attempts have been undertaken to estimate the economic value of these ecosystem services. In particular, indirect methods are rarely used, even though they are most suitable for the task. This discrepancy is because...
