Valuing improvements in the ecological integrity of local and regional waters using the biological condition gradient

Christian A. Vossler et al.

Summary: This study addresses the lack of scientific knowledge on quantifying the benefits of landscape-wide water quality improvements in the United States. By incorporating the Biological Condition Gradient (BCG) as a water quality metric in a stated preference survey, the study estimates the economic value for aquatic ecosystem improvements. The study finds that people are willing to pay more for policies that target their home watershed and nonuse sources of value are important for overall benefits.

A biological condition gradient for Caribbean coral reefs: Part II. Numeric rules using sessile benthic organisms

Summary: The Biological Condition Gradient (BCG) is a conceptual model used to describe incremental changes in biological condition along a gradient of increasing anthropogenic stress. We developed a numeric BCG model for the coral reefs of Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands to facilitate ecologically meaningful management decisions. The model employs decision rules based on multiple attributes to assess coral reef condition and has shown high predictive accuracy in site ratings.
