Land subsidence threatens the living conditions of roughly 1.2 billion people worldwide in deltaic regions … characterized by soft top soil. Economic activity in deltaic regions requires lowering the groundwater levels to keep the land … model recognizing this trade-off: we integrate the dynamics of land subsidence and groundwater management to derive optimal …

We develop a spatial model of energy exploitation where energy sources are differentiated by their geographic location … and energy density. The spatial setting creates a scaling law that magnifies the importance of differences across energy … plays must first boom and then bust. For both renewable and non-renewable energy sources we link the size of exploitation …

This paper presents the first investigation of the effects of optimal energy taxation in an urban spatial setting …, and land. These taxes reduce the extent of commuting and the level of housing consumption while increasing building …
