タイトル: “On the Flow and Stock Values of non-Market Natural Resources:
Theory and Practical Considerations”

概要:
A recent UNEP report (TEEB) concluded the current set of valuation tools is ill-equipped to measure the value of ecosystem services in macroeconomic settings. This project uses water resources in Japan to illustrate the hurdles one encounters when trying to measure the economic value of a natural asset as pervasive as water, and the steps one can take to overcome them. In telling this story, I lay out a dynamic, general equilibrium model of economic growth. With this model,
I discuss how we typically link IO data to the model, and point out (non-market) water has no role in such a framework. I suggest (a possibly obvious) remedy to this problem, and present simulation results based on 2005 Japanese IO data. I then discuss how we use the results to calculate the stock values of water over time. I conclude with a brief discussion of extending the model to accommodate ecosystem services – where an ecosystem is described by one or more dynamic stock variables.
