| Abstract;This paper presents the features, application limits and other aspects of 4 typical environmental value evaluation techniques (HEP,WET,HGM and BEST) in the U.S., and indicates that since the application ranges of individual evaluation techniques are different, it is necessary to select proper evaluation techniquesdepending on the kind of the region evaluated, functions of the region and inhabiting species of organisms. HEP is suitable to quantify the effects of development activities on the habitat of organisms, WET evaluates qualitatively various functions of a swampy zone, HGM evaluates a very shallow sea-area affected by tide and BEST evaluates a shallow sea-area. |
