Integrating Social Perception and Economic Valuation for Riparian Zone Preservation: Evidence from Kiliti Watershed, Ethiopia
Abstract: Riparian zones play a crucial role in maintaining watershed health by providing ecosystem services such as water filtration, erosion control, biodiversity conservation, and aesthetic and cultural benefits to surrounding communities. Despite their importance, riparian areas in many developing countries are increasingly degraded due to agricultural expansion, grazing pressure, and settlement encroachment. This study integrates social perception analysis with economic valuation to assess riparian zone preservation in the Kiliti Watershed, Northwestern …
