Data to account for environmental and socioeconomic assets: case study comparisons (NESP MaC 1.17)
Decision makers seek to account for the socioeconomic values of environmental assets. However, understanding the available frameworks and data can be a barrier. We address this here by summarizing the data used across four case studies (3 geographic regions and 3 socio-economic value frameworks) to demonstrate what data are available and how they are applied to support decisions in varied contexts.

- Statement
- We conducted workshops with key research users in the marine environment to identify key decision making questions and regions of interest for them. These workshops were hosted October – November 2021 with participants from 9 difference commonwealth agencies with a management stake in the marine environment. The decision making contexts identified were: • I need to implement a social and economic monitoring program for an area of marine estate • I need to make a choice between potential management actions • I need a shift to more pro-environmental behaviours Furthermore, when asked where participants were working a number of locations were identified including: • The economic exclusive zone • The national marine protected area estate • The Great Barrier Reef • Geographe Marine Park • Port Philip Bay • Partnership programs and sites such as Reef Builder sites along the east coast of Australia and restoration sites in Gulf St Vincent. As a result of the workshops we selected Geographe Marine Park Environmental Accounts, Port Philip Bay Environmental Accounts, and Great Barrier Reef Total Economic Value studies as case studies. For each case study we began with the source documents and sites provided to us by workshop participants. Within these main reports and source documents we recorded each type of data used and found any available links to original source data. This data record provides a summary of each case study breaking down data considered by type (assets, condition, services, benefits) and provides interpretations of data considered and links to the original data inputs.
