Abstract
Ecologically engineered systems (EESs) for water treatment are sources of
cultural ecosystem services but quantification of these ancillary benefits has been lacking. A critical assessment of recreational and educational benefits in EESs is provided, including monetary valuation; the use of geotagged photos from social media is explored as a proxy of visitation rates where these are not tracked.
