Over-Allocation or Abatement? A Preliminary Analysis of the Eu Ets Based on the 2005 Emissions Data

Buchner, Barbara; Ellerman, Denny - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2006

This paper provides an initial analysis of the EU ETS based on the installation-level data for verified emissions and allowance allocations in the first trading year. Those data, released on May 15, 2006, and subsequent updates revealed that CO2 emissions were about 4% lower than the allocated...

A Modelling Framework for Addressing the Synergies between Global Conventions through Land Use Changes: Carbon Sequestration, Biodiversity Conservation, Prevention of Land Degradat...

Ponce-Hernandez, Raul - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2007

This paper proposed a methodological framework for the assessment of carbon stocks and the development and identification of land use, land use change and land management scenarios, whereby enhancing carbon sequestration synergistically increases biodiversity, the prevention of land degradation...

Climate Change and the Stability of Water Allocation Agreements

Ansink, Erik; Ruijs, Arjan - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2007

We analyse agreements on river water allocation between riparian countries. Besides being efficient, water allocation agreements need to be stable in order to be effective in increasing the efficiency of water use. In this paper, we assess the stability of water allocation agreements, using a...

Sequential Sharing Rules for River Sharing Problems

Ansink, Erik; Weikard, Hans-Peter - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2009

We analyse the redistribution of a resource among agents who have claims to the resource and who are ordered linearly. A well known example of this particular situation is the river sharing problem. We exploit the linear order of agents to transform the river sharing problem to a sequence of...

Self-enforcing Agreements on Water allocation

Ansink, Erik - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2009

Many water allocation agreements in transboundary river basins are inherently unstable. Due to stochastic river flow, agreements may be broken in case of drought. The objective of this paper is to analyse whether water allocation agreements can be self-enforcing. An agreement is modelled as the...

Integrating Water Resources into Computable General Equilibrium Models - A Survey

Ponce, Roberto; Bosello, Francesco; Giupponi, Carlo - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2012

Water resources are facing several stresses in terms of quantity and quality. These pressures are closely related to the human interventions in fields like: agriculture, land-use/land use change, construction/management of reservoirs, pollutant emissions, and water /wastewater treatment, among...

The Economic Impact of the South-North Water Transfer Project in China: A Computable General Equilibrium Analysis

Berrittella, Maria; Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S.J. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2006

Water resources are unevenly spread in China. Especially the basins of the Yellow, Hui and Hai rivers in the North are rather dry. To increase the supply of water in these basins, the South-to-North Water Transfer project (SNWT) was launched. Using a computable general equilibrium model this...

Reallocating Water: An Application of Sequent

Ansink, Erik; Marchiori, Carmen - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2009

We present an axiomatic approach to the reallocation of water rights among economic sectors. Reallocation may be appropriate when the current schedule of water allocation is considered unfair. Our proposed approach is based on the combination of initial water rights, sectors' claims to water,...
