英文摘要 | It is widely believed that forests help improve water quality by reducing soil erosion (and hence reducing silt) as well as filtering out nutrients and pollutants carried in water, which allows the municipal drinking water supply sector to simplify or expedite many costly water treatment procedures and thereby save on operating costs. This study statistically quantifies such cost savings in the contexts of China’s Sichuan province, by analyzing how drinking water treatment costs change in response to changes in upstream forest cover. A primary novel contribution of this study is to measure the cost-saving effects delivered by forests at different distances upstream from the water intake point. The main findings are as follows.
This brief is based on: Valuing Water Purification Services of Forests: A Production Function Approach Using Panel Data from China's Sichuan Province, EfD Discussion Paper 20-29, August 2020, by Zhaoyang Liu, Department of Land Economy, University of Cambridge, UK. |
