Résumé : L’article présente les différentes options de financement complémentaire et leur faisabilité dans le cadre de la mise en place de la future aire marine protégée du Prêcheur en Martinique. Il met en avant une estimation de l’apport financier généré par les différentes options de financement applicables dans le cadre de la réserve du Prêcheur tout en soulignant la nécessité d’une analyse plus fouillée. Il introduit aussi la notion de « paiement pour les services environnementaux » qui pourrait être appliquée afin d’associer les pêcheurs au processus de suivi scientifique et de développement de l’écotourisme. L’article s’appuie sur les résultats d’études menées à l’échelle de la Martinique entre 2011 et 2016.
The article presents the different options of complementary financing and their feasibility in the context of the implementation of the future marine protected area of Le Prêcheur in Martinique. It highlights an estimation of the financial contribution of the various relevant financing options in the reserve of Le Prêcheur, while acknowledging the need for further analysis. It also introduces the concept of ‘payment for ecosystem services’ which could be applied to involve fishermen in the process of scientific monitoring and ecotourism development. The article is based on the results of studies conducted at the scale of Martinique between 2011 and 2016.

Résumé : International audience
The identification and economic valuation of ecosystem services (ES) are becoming important components of coral reef management. In many contexts, protection of human assets against coastal floods is one of the most important ES provided by coral reefs. The methods utilized to characterize this ES should be able to accommodate situations with low data availability, without sacrificing robustness. In this paper, we suggest such an approach that utilizes expert opinion and does not require copious amounts of data. Our primary objective is to find a balance between simple and complex models that can be used in a data scarce environment, to produce an economic valuation of the coral reef ES of protection against coastal floods. The approach has three steps: (i) identify geographic zones and assets at risk, (ii) identify the contributing role of coral reefs in the protection of coasts and, (iii) value the annual repair costs of assets through the avoided damage cost approach. The proposed method seems appropriate for advocacy with policy makers, but appears to be less effective for small scale approaches, such as those required for Payment for ES negotiations or marine spatial planning.
