Valuation of ecosystem services of protected areas
Understanding that the environment is more than the resource base of human economic activities was a watershed in the awareness of the real value of the environment and the need for an assessment of its quality.

Understanding that the environment is more than the resource base of human economic activities was a watershed in the awareness of the real value of the environment and the need for an assessment of its quality.

Ecosystem services are seen as an intermediate link between the processes and phenomena in the environment and human well-being. The main groups of the ecosystem services are providing services (products which obtained from ecosystems), regulating services (benefits which obtained from the regulation of ecosystem processes), cultural services (intangible benefits that people obtain from ecosystems) and supporting services (necessary for the production of all other types of services).
