	note = {If you have ever wondered what undeveloped land in estuaries is worth, this publication might be of interest.  This study, based on 2004 data, wasn{\textquoteright}t able to quantify the value of every service performed by undeveloped land and open spaces, but does a good job of detailing what is possible to quantify.  {\textquotedblleft}Recreational fishing is the activity that generates the single largest value, followed by commercial crabbing and oyster harvests. Carbon sequestration, the only ecosystem service included in our analysis, generates substantial economic value as well, although the current uncertainties surrounding access and credit prices on emerging carbon markets make this estimate somewhat less reliable than those for the other uses we examine.{\textquotedblright} (p.1-2)},
