Natural Capital Accounts (CBS)

The Natural Capital Accounts of Statistics Netherlands aim to map out the relationship between nature, the economy and human activities in a clear manner - literally. CBS is working with Wageningen University on behalf of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV) on the development of models, data and maps that provide a spatial and as complete as possible picture of the current state of natural capital in the Netherlands. For more information: https://www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/maatschappij/natuur-en-milieu/natuurlijk-capital made available. See the Natural Capital Atlas for an explanation per map, or consult the technical explanation (https://www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/maatschappij/natuur-en-milieu/natuurlijk-capital/technische-toelichting). Both the physical and monetary (use) value of most ecosystem services have been mapped out. The unit of the map is therefore stated in the map name, as well as the resolution and the reference year. Size of ecosystems: Ecosystem type map (2021) Ecosystem condition: Hedge density (2018) Urbanization (2018) Heat in the city (2018) Producing ecosystem services: Wood production (2020) Flower bulb production (2020) Horticultural production (2020) Crop production (horticulture incl. flower bulbs) (2020) Production of food crops (total arable farming) (2020) Production of fodder crops (grass) (2020) Production of fodder crops (maize) (2020) Production of fodder crops (total) (2020) Production of agricultural crops (total) (2020) Regulating ecosystem services: Pollination (2020) ) Carbon sequestration (global climate regulation) (2020) Air filtration (2020) Rainwater regulation (2020) Reducing UHI (local climate regulation) (2020) Cultural ecosystem services: Green quality of life (2020) Nature recreation (2020) Nature tourism (2020) Totals: Total (use) value of ecosystem services (2020) Total Ecosystem Capital Value (2020)
