TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an overview of the value of ecosystem services of 10 main biomes expressed in monetary units and showed that most of this value is outside the market and best considered as nontradable public benefits.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a conceptual framework to analyze the decision environment underlying energy and fuel choices, and apply this framework in a meta-analysis of existing choice models investigating energy switching and stacking behavior in urban and rural areas in developing countries.

TL;DR: Hawai'i's coral reef ecosystems provide many goods and services to coastal populations, such as fisheries and tourism as mentioned in this paper, and they also form a unique natural ecosystem, with an important biodiversity value as well as scientific and educational value.

TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analysis of stated preference studies that focus on attributes of European agrarian landscapes (n ǫ=345) was performed to identify generic preferences for particular types of landscape attributes across case studies, and to identify landscape context variables that explain preference heterogeneity between different cases that address similar landscape attributes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the economic consequences of deforestation versus conservation, disaggregating the economic value for the main stakeholders and regions involved, and present the results in terms of the type of benefits, allocation of these benefits among stakeholders, and regional distribution of benefits.
