Conservation, Biodiversity, and Resource Management

Although they occupy only 3% of the global surface area, wetlands represent 43.5% of the global monetary value provided by ecosystem services (ES). The Pantanal is one of the biggest wetland areas and provides many types of ES as goods and services for humanity, including a highly diversified flora and fauna; food, freshwater, and pastureland; climate stability and flood control; and scenic beauty, recreation, spiritual and cultural diversity, and well-being. Here, we updated the monetary valuation of ES for the Pantanal and Upper Paraguay River Basin (UPRB) based on recent ecosystem maps and more detailed land cover classifications. Hence, we stimulate further discussions and development of valuation processes.
