Abstract:The authors of the article state that a utility-theoretic model indicates that mitigation prices for wetland ecosystems depend on preferences and technical knowledge. The authors also state that empirical analysis found gaps in respondents' knowledge about such ecosystems. Valuing wetland types requires dealing with respondents' possible misinformation, by developing tools for informing respondents or by combining service- based valuations with valid technical data. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of the research results regarding the application of a framework for measuring the relative economic values of wetland ecosystems. The paper provides a substantial list of references on this subject.
