Abstract

Taking LY/T1721—2008 as assessment standard, this study chosen these methods such as demonstration, literature study, expert interview and comparison. Results showed that the value of forest ecosystem services was about 48,556.77 × 104 Yuan, the production value 5,762.23 × 104 Yuan and the social services value 7,057.02 × 104 Yuan, respectively. Obviously, the ecosystem service value reached 8.42 times of the production value and 6.88 times of the social services value, respectively. So, the paper insists that the ecological services value was the upper limit of ecological compensation for the upper Qiupu River basin, and the values including the storage and retention of water and soil and water conservation were the lower limit.
