Many alternatives exist for estimating the value of the natural environment. These approaches have been developed over the past 40 to 50 years and began principally because of increasing awareness that continued economic development of nations had an associated cost in environmental degradation. To understand the motivators and problems associated with the need for environmental controls and preserving economic growth, it is necessary to discuss some of the principles associated with the study of environmental economics. The major goal of the study of environmental economics is to aid humanity in balancing economic growth with the environmental impacts it creates through evaluating policy. Using environmental economics as a mechanism for policy assessment allows the evaluation of potential gains from specific courses of economic growth and the trade-offs in environmental services that may be necessary. Based on a melding of economics, environmental science, engineering, and public policy, this research demonstrates the calculation of an Ecological Service Value (ESV) using the substitute cost valuation method for a single ecosystem service; stormwater management. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is used to provide the required input parameters for the WinSLAMM (Source Loading and Management Model for Windows) stormwater runoff model, which provides the input variables for the ESV calculation. In addition, a brief history of significant literature and valuation methods is provided to aid in understanding the application and development of the specific method of substitute costs.]]>

The historical perspective of what today is considered the modern study of environmental economics begins with problems proposed by Garret Hardin in his famous essay "The Tragedy of the Commons" in 1968. Many scientists, engineers, and economists have proposed methods of assessing the value of the natural environment since this time. This presentation will discuss many of these methods with specific focus on application of substitute cost method and its potential for application in stormwater management and mitigation.]]>

This presentation describes a Web service that dynamically generates a KML from user-selected layers. The service, originally designed on the Alabama Resource Management System for Virtual Alabama, uses computational geometry to generate thematic layers on the fly. Users choose map layers of interest and a KML is then made available to them for download. This discussion will show how quickly a novice user can utilize a Web service to locate and visualize thematic data layers of interest without having to use anything more than their browser and KML displaying application.]]>
