Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to contribute to the methodological improvement of the ecosystem
services valuation process. The basic hypothesis adopted was that it should consider using the
ecological-economic modeling as a basic tool required to better understand the ecological
dynamics involved and incorporate other values of ecosystem services that otherwise would not
be captured. As an important management tool, it is vital to go beyond with proposals for
improving the ecosystem services valuation, in order to overcome its reductionist bias. In this
sense the most important contribution of this paper is the proposal of a ecological-economic
valuation approach, which is aimed at integrating the stricto sensu valuation to the more general
analysis of changes in ecosystem services flows (ecosystem assessment) and its effects on economic
variables.
