Abstract:
In order to evaluate the meteorological resources in the ecosystem, a framework for accounting eco-meteorological products is proposed on the basis of GEP (gross ecosystem product) accounting system. In this framework, an index system and its quantifying method are given by identifying meteorological products in the ecosystem and assessing the role played by meteorological conditions in the ecosystem and the values brought by the conditions. And then from the perspective of implementation approach, a case study is conducted in Jingde County of Anhui Province by using the framework to account the eco-meteorological value of its meteorological products in 2020. The research results indicated that the total value of ecometeorological products in Jingde County in 2020 reached 5.974 billion yuan, slightly higher than the GDP (5.492 billion yuan) of the same year. Moreover, there is still a great potential in the development and utilization of meteorological tourism resources, so the value provided by meteorological resources should not be underestimated. The accounting results can basically reflect the actual value provided by meteorological resources in a region, so they have certain scientific and practical significances.
