Assessment and valuation of key ecosystem services provided by two forest ecosystems in Turkey

Original language description

The study was designed to quantify value and the spatial distribution of key ecosystem services such as wood production, habitat for biodiversity, carbon sequestration and air quality regulation in two areas: Eregli and Yesilkusak of Turkey. Wood production was quantified using forest inventory data and yield tables. Carbon storage was estimated based on the above - and below - ground biomass, deadwood and litter and soil. Habitat for species was characterized with a practical method based on the protection categories of stands. Vegetation cover in close proximity to the artificial surfaces and total health care cost avoided by the vegetation were used to quantify air quality regulation. Value transfer method was used in the valuation of ES in both areas. Average amount of wood production is quite low (5,7 m(3)/ha in Eregli and 6 m(3)/ha in Yesilkusak) compared to the overall average (72 m(3)/ha) in Turkey. The amount of carbon is largely low (64-100 tC/ha), indicating poor to medium capacity of t
