Abstract:

In the context of Protected Areas (PAs), ecosystem service for social values plays a significant role in planning for National Park preservation. Using China's Pudacuo National Park and the United States' Pike and San Isabel (PSI) National Forests as research sites, this article employs Social Values for Ecosystem Services (SolVES) model to assess the social values in the two parks, determines the relative perceived importance of 12 social values, and focuses on three social values (aesthetics, biodiversity, and ecological value) with a perceived highly by the public based on the result of perceived importance. The findings indicate that: (1) Respondents in Pudacuo National Park have a strong preference for recreation value, while the max value index in PSI National Forests is aesthetic value. (2) The hotspots of Pudacuo National Park's three social values exhibit a "multi-core and multi-strip" spatial pattern; The hotspots of PSI National Forests' three social values present a "multi-core but scattered and single-strip" geographical distribution. (3) Three social values with a high degree of preference in Pudacuo National Park are adjacent to water bodies or roads, with an altitude of more than 3 600 meters. In contrast, PSI National Forests' three social values are close to the water bodies but far away from the road and located in the high-altitude area. By comparing the social values of China's Pudacuo National Park and the United States' PSI National Forests, it is discovered that social governance in the form of national parks can pave the way for benefit sharing of the transnational ecosystem and promote shared governance based on shared interests among countries, thereby ensuring the long-term maintenance of social values.
