Executive summary Water sensitive systems and practices provide multiple indirect benefits such as environmental and ecological services. However, due to a lack of information on the monetized value of these services many of these services are not considered during investment decision making. The compilation and synthesis of existing non-market valuation estimates of the monetary value of water sensitive systems and practices, by making reference values readily available, can encourage the incorporation of indirect benefit value information in the investment decision process. Reference information on the monetary value of indirect benefits can also be used when conducting comprehensive post-hoc analysis of investments in water management projects. This review presents the findings from an extensive survey of the literature on the key benefits and services delivered through the use of water sensitive systems

The organisation's founders were introduced to this, then remote, corner of Europe thanks to the Doñana Expedition and they were able to study the migration patterns and conservation of many of the species featured in this guide. Since that time, the WWF has continued to work in the marshes and at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River, key areas for conserving the ecosystems and biodiversity that have made it part of the Natura 2000 Network and which include many protected areas, such as the Brazo del Este Nature Reserve and the Bonanza salt flats in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, which are part of the Doñana Natural Area.
