Economic valuation of urban forest benefits in Finland
Journal, Research (Article)
The purpose of this investigation was to study the valuation of urban forests in two different urban environments Joensuu and Salo, Finland. The aims were to study the attitudes towards and benefits related to the use of urban forests and, in particular, to measure the valuations in monetary terms using contingent valuation, i.e., measure the residents' willingness-to-pay for larger wooded recreation areas and for small forested parks.
