Hartman and Taylor (1989 …) and Sunderland, Libbin and Torell (1987) find that groundwater irrigation has no significant effect on land prices …; Torrell et al. (1990) find a significant positive effect of groundwater in irrigation. One explanation is that in areas where …

A key feature of hydrologically connected surface and groundwater stocks is the two-way exchange of water between the … groundwater systems when economic agents withdraw water from both for use in production. I use the model to describe optimal water … extraction from both stocks and to evaluate how a conjunctive management policy shifts welfare between surface and groundwater …

Developing groundwater management plans requires a good understanding of the interdependence of groundwater hydrology … and producer water use behavior. While state-of-the-art groundwater models require water demand data at highly …

One of the most important groundwater problems in Oregon, Washington and Idaho is the long-term decline of the … groundwater surface level, which has been intensified by wells through discharging water from aquifers.

In Mexico, farmers only pay the cost of electricity used to pump groundwater from wells for groundwater consumption and … also receive electricity subsidy from government. It causes the fact that farmers consume groundwater under the situation … groundwater pumping cost.
