    This study considers the natural capital accumulated in agricultural, mountainous, and fishing villages as a source of regional attractiveness, and seeks to empirically elucidate the conditions under which inbound demand to rural areas can be increased by making advanced use of the ecosystem services that spring from this capital, and to develop new strategies for regional revitalization. Specifically, the project aims to (1) develop a method to quantify potential inbound demand in rural areas in a way that enables inter-regional comparisons, and (2) analyze the social acceptability of increased inbound demand in rural areas.

  • ,Empirical research for valuation and conservation of unknown national wealth in rural areas,Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research(B)Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research(B),2016.04 - 2019.03,Japan Society for the Promotion of Science

    This research addressed three issues which have been overlooked in the field of economic evaluation of natural capital and ecosystem services. First, we examined how the people’s competence affects the evaluation of ecosystem services under uncertainty and verified the significance of information provision about ecosystem services.
    Second, we investigated the shadow value of resilience in complex natural lands acting as wild pollinator habitats and found that its overlooked value of forest is not negligible at all.
    Third, we addressed the problem of residential choices from the view of identity utility and revealed the factors promoting the attachment and intimacy to local resident. It is found that it is of great importance to accumulate social capital and enhance the use of indigenous ecosystem services to prevent population outflow from local to urban area.
