Agenda for Katoomba XVI: Building a Blueprint to Harness New Investment for the Protection of Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Services Agenda for Katoomba XVI: Building a Blueprint to Harness New Investment for the Protection of Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Services Agenda for the Marine Katoomba Meeting - Katoomba XVI: Building a Blueprint to Harness New Investment for the Protection of Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Services, February 9-10, 2010 held at the Moore Foundation in Palo Alto, CA. This Marine and Coastal Katoomba Meeting capitalizes on ever-expanding interest in finding innovative solutions to conserve our marine environment and resources, in order to safeguard human well-being. The dialog around market-based mechanisms has to-date focused on fishery catch shares and quota markets. Rather than focusing on the state of existing marine and coastal markets, we will instead concentrate on developing new financing tools and approaches and expanding the use of market-based mechanisms to other services, such as coastline stabilization, beach maintenance and production, fish nursery functions of mangroves and seagrass beds, coastal water quality and ocean carbon storage.

Credible Conservation: Using biodiversity monitoring to support incentive programs that protect endangered wildlife Credible Conservation: Using biodiversity monitoring to support incentive programs that protect endangered wildlife Tenure Brief, No. 13: October 2010 - Market-based, economic incentive programs reward land users for conserving environmental services, habitat, or biodiversity. Such programs can be instrumental in protecting endangered wild animals persisting on private lands. To ensure success, these programs must be accompanied by effective monitoring strategies that can reveal whether conservation is occurring or not.

Ecosystem Marketplace-State of Watershed Payments Ecosystem Marketplace-State of Watershed Payments A global research effort conducted by Ecosystem Marketplace identified a total of approximately 288 payments for watershed services (PWS) and water quality trading (WQT) programs in varying stages of activity over the past 30 years. In 2008, the baseline year, about 127 programs were actively receiving payments or transacting credits. The total transaction value from all programs actively engaged in 2008 is estimated at US$9.3 billion. Over the entire time span of recorded activity, total transaction value is estimated at slightly more than US$50 billion, impacting some 3.24 billion hectares. This report has 3 objectives, 1) to use project-level data to estimate the overall size and scope of the payments directed to protest or restore watershed services; 2) to account for the full spectrum of watershed services activities and track changes going forward, and 3) to look ahead at the opportunities and challenges based on the current level of transactions, experimentation, and lessons learned.
