Description
Summary:The article summarizes the main indicators of the value of waterlogged areas, which must be taken into account for the sustainable management of wetlands. The ecosystem functions of wetlands included in the natural capital of a region relate to hydrology, water quality, supporting food chains, and providing habitats for living organisms, including rare and protected ones. The socio-economic significance of wetlands is formed both from their consumer value and from non-productive, socio-cultural values. There is a need to develop an approach and methodology for the study of waterlogged areas, within which the assessment of the natural capital of a region will necessarily include the assessment of the non-productive values of wetlands.
