Article on how linking marine habitats and economic values!

Our new study reveals the immense economic value of marine habitats in Northern Ireland, estimating societal benefits worth £51.1–83.3 million annually. By integrating advanced spatial mapping and natural capital accounting, we can better understand and protect these crucial ecosystems. Explore how the BEACH tool can help stakeholders assess and preserve our marine resources for future generations.
