The First Milestone

Apr 27, 2017

The First MilestoneOver the past week we have been sampling our survey with those who are familiar with CVM and the content of our survey, and those who are not. We've received many helpful comments and suggestions to make sure our survey is as easy to read and understand as possible. We also have a rough estimate of how long it will take to complete. With all of these in mind, we are making required changes necessary before gearing up for distribution. Thanks everyone, and expect to hear from us soon as our campaign is coming to an end.

Economic Valuation of Ecosystem Services Provided by Macroalgae Aquaculture

University of Copenhagen, Institute for Food and Resource Economics

(En français)

We are studying public perception about macroalgae (seaweed) aquaculture. Our goal is to value the ecosystem services provided by MA aquaculture, especially in waterways suffering from elevated eutrophication levels. We are hoping to reveal the trade off between positive environmental quality changes, and negative aesthetic changes to the otherwise 'natural' environment. We can use this knowledge to better understand how MA aquaculture should be implemented in a sustainable economy.
