Climate change impacts on global agriculture
Calzadilla, Alvaro; Rehdanz, Katrin; Betts, Richard; … - 2010
Based on predicted changes in the magnitude and distribution of global precipitation, temperature and river flow under the IPCC SRES A1B and A2 scenarios, this study assesses the potential impacts of climate change and CO2 fertilization on global agriculture. The analysis uses the new version of...

On national and international trade in greenhouse gas emission permits
Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2002
This paper considers the question under what conditions domestic markets of emission permits would and should merge to become an international market. Emission permits are licenses, and so governments would need to recognize other countries’ permits. In a two-county model, we find that it is...

The GTAP-W model: accounting for water use in agriculture
Calzadilla, Alvaro; Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S.J. - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2011
Water and agriculture are intrinsically linked. Water is essential for crop production and agriculture is the largest consumer of freshwater resources. However, this link is commonly ignored by economic models mainly because water use is not reported in the national economic accounts. Few...

The Economic Impact Water Taxes: a Computable General Equilibrium Analysis with an International Data Set
Berrittella, Maria; Rehdanz, Katrin; Roson, Roberto; … - Dipartimento di Economia, Università Ca' Foscari Venezia - 2008
that impacts of water taxes cannot be studied in isolation, but require an analysis of international trade implications. We … series of water tax policies. We find that water taxes reduce water use, and lead to shifts in production, consumption, and … international trade patterns. Countries that do not levy water taxes are nonetheless affected by other countries' taxes. Taxes on …

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. - 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...

The Impact of Trade Liberalization on Water Use: A Computable General Equilibrium Analysis
Rehdanz, Katrin; Berrittella, Maria; S.J. Tol, Richard; … - In: Journal of Economic Integration 23 (2008), pp. 631-655
We used the GTAP-W model - GTAP version 5 with water resources added - to estimate the impact of hypothetical Doha-like liberalization of agricultural trade on water use. Three conclusions emerge. First, the change in regional water use is less than 10 per cent relative to the baseline in 2010,...

Water scarcity and the impact of improved irrigation management: a CGE analysis
Calzadilla, Alvaro; Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2008
We use the new version of the GTAP-W model to analyze the economy-wide impacts of enhanced irrigation efficiency. The new production structure of the model, which introduces a differentiation between rainfed and irrigated crops, allows a better understanding of the use of water resources in...
