Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a multifaceted study on the economic value of preserving river ecosystems and considers recreational activities as well as broader topics of preservation ethics. Taking the Madison and Bitterroot rivers as case studies, the author provides a methodological framework for ecosystem valuation and analyzes the motives behind preservationist values. Through qualitative and quantitative research methods, the author finds that preservation values are not frequently tied to direct use of the rivers and that existence and bequest values may play a significant role in the public's willingness to support conservation policies. This book will appeal to policymakers, land managers, students, and scholars in environmental economics, conservation, and natural resource management.
