Exemplary valuation of natural resource assets and ecosystem services in cold winter deserts in Uzbekistan

Exemplary valuation of natural resource assets and ecosystem services

Despite harsh climatic conditions that prevail over the cold winter deserts of Central Asia, there are numerous benefits derived from these deserts that are crucial for livelihoods of the population living there. These benefits are derived in form of various ecosystem services from the cold winter deserts.

This study was conducted under the Central Asia Desert Initiative (CADI) project, aimed at conservation and adaptive use of cold winter deserts in Central Asia. The objective of the study in Uzbekistan was to assess the value of natural resource assets and ecosystem services (ES) to proximate communities to create awareness of desert ecosystem’s importance (i.e., how natural resources and ES services or lack of them impact the quality of life for community stakeholders, particularly those reliant upon forest and rangelands for their livelihoods).
