Conclusion statistics look encouraging but model not robust enough for forecasting --- plugged in values result in high WTP values samples/number of papers should be expandedneed to formulate hypothesis applicable to tropical coastal ecosystemsExercise should contribute to setting “best practices” for CV/TC studies
