Ecosystem Services, Markets, and Red Wolf Habitat
This report explores landowner attitudes
towards the use of financial incentives to promote the conservation of red wolf
habitat in Northeastern North Carolina. Many area landowners are interested in
participating in "payment for ecosystem services" (PES) programs, particularly
if the programs emphasize wildlife habitat or water quality. The report was
authored by researchers at the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke
University, and funded by the Alex C. Walker Educational and
Charitable Foundation. The report can also be found at Duke University's Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions site.
