Approximation of the benefits of socioeconomic activities in Cocos Island National Park and the effects of climate change

Abstract: The objective of this study was to quantify the economic benefits provided by the cluster of activities developed thanks to the existence of the Cocos Island National Park (CINP) and the ecosystem services it offers. The methodology consisted of employing cluster analysis complemented by a...

The methodology consisted of employing cluster analysis complemented by a value chain approach identifying productive and non-productive activities related to the CINP and their interrelationships at the local, regional, national and international levels. The results determined that in 2019 the CINP allowed the generation of an income of US$19,682,466, of which the most significant contribution was made at the national level (88% of the total). The findings indicate the importance of protecting natural resources and marine species such as sharks (especially the hammerhead shark - Sphyrna lewini) from two potential threats, fishing and the effects of climate change, since the disappearance or decrease of such species could affect economic benefits.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessUniversidad de Talca.
