Valuation of coastal ecosystem services in the Large Marine Ecosystems of Africa [PDF]
Environmental Development, 2020 Abstract The African coastline is bordered by highly valuable marine ecosystems, but the environmental degradation due to anthropogenic pressure alter the benefits that they render to people. Our paper aims at assessing the value of ecosystem services provided by mangroves, seagrass beds, coral reefs, and kelp forests present in the Large Marine ...
