What is environmental valuation?<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

The purpose of an environmental valuation is to determine the environmental value of a given area and to indicate the valuable environmental elements and specification of the properties that determined the granting of such an assessment. Environmental valuation is based on the results of an ecological survey<\/a> of natural elements or environmental monitoring of such elements as species of fauna and flora and plant communities.<\/p>\n

Ecological survey is the first stage<\/h2>\n

The first, initial stage that allows for environmental valuation is a sound ecological inventory. The valuation criteria refer to a whole range of parameters and natural phenomena. These are, for example, the number and density of populations, the occurrence and abundance of species, the species richness of ecosystems and the degree of their naturalness.<\/p>\n

Assessment of assets within the designated area<\/h2>\n

Environmental valuation is carried out with the use of specific, mutually complementary criteria for assessing the environmental value. With their help, the assets \u200b\u200bidentified within the studied area are valued. They can be entire ecosystems or their fragments, such as a lake, a meadow, trees or an arbitrarily separated section of a river.<\/p>\n

Valuation criteria can be divided into three main groups<\/h2>\n
