11. Water Account
The main input for water resources is precipitation and inflow from other territories. The main natural flows that decrease the stock are evaporation and outflow to other territories.
The price of water provide inadequate indicator on its economic value. This situation is applicable to Jordan because of water scarcity. The monetary value of water used in different sectors of industry, services, transportation and construction are available depending on water price considering the water as commodity enter in production process

17. Difficulties in Environmental Statistic Division
1. Deficiency in detailed data related to natural resources ex. Water asset account describe stock at the beginning and end of an accounting period which is not available
2. Need of specialized studies related to degradation and pollution of resources which is expensive (effect of air pollution on health and valuation of water in agriculture depending on change in productivity approach)
3. Fear of under or over estimating of a resource
4. Training on calculation methodologies
07 كانون الأول، 18

18. The potential implementation of the SEEAW
The implementation of the SEEAW will take place in the planned situation if the stuff given adequate training in the account methodologies, decide tow employees to work full time for this topic and has enough money for the working group
The priority in environment division is for sustainable indicators in water, energy, air pollution and biodiversity statistic

19. Jordan Situation
In Jordan several specific studies takes place in universities to evaluate natural resources such as coral reef in Aqaba gulf. Surveys were conducted to ask target people (tourists) about willingness to pay for visiting Aqaba and interesting in diving and coral reef view (Travel cost method) a19nd the effect of increasing price of admission on the travel cost. Since travel cost is varying from one person to another it is possible to construct a demand function for recreation. In the same manner different studies evaluate Dibbeen and Jarash forests. These studies are expensive and need specialist researchers for collecting data and filling specialized questionnaires prepared for this purpose.
