PRICE-RESPONSIVENESS OF DEMAND FOR IRRIGATION WATER WITHDRAWALS VS. CONSUMPTIVE USE: ESTIMATES AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS
Young, Robert A.; Cardon, Grant E.; Scheierling, Susanne M. - 2003
Of water withdrawn for agricultural crop irrigation, a portion is consumed and the remainder comes back to the … hydrologic system as return flows. Previous models of irrigation water demand have mostly focused on the change in withdrawals in … planning. This study develops a simulation/mathematical programming model of water demand representing an irrigation company in …

The dynamics of iterated transportation simulations
Nagel, K.; Rickert, M.; Simon, P.M. - 2009
Transportation-related decisions of people often depend on what everybody else is doing. For example, decisions about mode choice, route choice, activity scheduling, etc., can depend on congestion, caused by the aggregated behavior of others. From a conceptual viewpoint, this consistency problem...
