Reports using the ESVD should be made publicly available and use correct citation above. Description The focus of the ESVD is to gather information on economic welfare values related to ecosystem services measured in monetary units. By communicating such values in monetary units, we provide recognisable information that can be used to internalise the importance of Nature in decision making. more The ESVD organises its value estimates and corresponding data in 166 columns with information on among others: biomes, ecosystem and ecozone types, ecosystem services, valuation result in original units, country and continent, coordinates, scale of study site, valuation method, protected status and condition, bibliographic details, standardised value, and review status.
