Abstract | The Contingent Valuation method (CV) is applied to the economic valuation of the highlands north of Vatnajökull Glacier, Iceland. The values, as stated by the general public willingness to accept compensation for the loss that would be generated due to proposed hydropower developments, or willingness to pay for the benefits provided by the activity give clues about how such numbers might be used to assist decision-making about the future management of the wilderness area. This paper also reports a comparison between a new group-based CV approach, called Market Stall, and conventional in-person interviews. |
