Ecosystem Accounts: an application for the artisanal fisheries in the Galapagos Marine Reserve 1: Charles Darwin Foundation, Ecuador; 2: Universidad Central del Ecuador; 3: Fisheries Transparency Initiative, FITI This research examines the results of the pilot application of the Ecosystem Accounting methodology under the United Nations System of Environmental and Economic Accounting on artisanal fisheries in Galapagos, Ecuador (2014–2018). It explores the interconnectedness and feedback among ecosystem, economic, and social dimensions. To evaluate these dimensions, the study develops extent and condition accounts for ecosystems, elaborates a hybrid supply-use table with physical and monetary indicators to assess economic activities, and incorporates employment data from the artisanal fishing sector to highlight social effects. The research also reports challenges and limitations encountered when applying ecosystem accounting methods. | |
