Abstract
the article examines modern approaches to the economic valuation of ecosystem services and their role in ensuring sustainable regional development. A comparative analysis of Russian and international studies is carried out to identify key methodological approaches and determine their applicability in regional economics. Particular attention is paid to the classification of ecosystem services, the analysis of their spatial distribution, and the possibilities of integrating them into territorial planning systems. Based on the generalization of empirical data, the advantages and limitations of the applied methods are highlighted, and the prospects for the introduction of integrated valuation models are outlined. It is concluded that it is necessary to expand the statistical base and legally consolidate the inclusion of ecosystem services in order to increase the effectiveness of regional policy.
