Abstract:

In order to estimate better the value of nature reserve, so as to solve the existing problems at present, the author summarized the research progress of evaluating ecosystem services of forest, wetland, grassland and agro-ecosystem in our country, and then analyzed the value evaluation of all kinds of natural reserve, based on the results of evaluation of ecosystem services at home and abroad for 40 years. In the last, the points of existent problems and future development were put forward. Analysis showed that there was not a unified method to evaluate the ecosystem services until now; the gap of method innovation between domestic and foreign research still existed; the velocity of evaluation was much less than that of nature reserve’s increasing speed. The research on value theories, methods and models should be strengthened in the future.
