This paper compares three approaches to using attitudinal data to describe heterogeneous preferences for non-market goods. Two latent class models and one random parameter logit model are included. Each model makes different assumptions about the role of attitudes in the decision process....

Against the background of increasing concerns regarding the energy supply security as well asenvironmental concern the interest for renewable energy sources has increased in recent years. Thebiofuel sector, backed by public policies, experienced a strong increase in and outside Europe....

The overall aim of this study is to empirically investigate the cost structure of a management agreement typeagri-environmental instrument and to identify factors for cost variation over space and time. We control for theactual level of compliance by using compliance weighted average scheme cost...

Most terrestrial biological invasions occur in landscapes comprising numerous, independently managed properties. Thus, control of invasion spread generally depends on the choices of many managers, each deciding the extent to control invasions on their property. Here we develop a...

This paper accomplishes two objectives. First, this paper estimates a model for oil wells drilled in the Gulf of Mexico using specific time series models. In the second objective, the number of wells drilled are applied to the COMPAS model for Louisiana. Wells drilled are treated as final demand...

In this article we present results from a study of recreation demandfor southern North Carolina beaches. We combine revealed preference andstated preference data in order to estimate the changes in recreation demandthat might occur with beach nourishment and parking improvements necessaryto...

We demonstrate how to specify and estimate a time series model that can isolate the effects of changes in fishery policy and forecast the outcome of policy changes in the context of changing climate and economic factors. The approach is illustrated with data from the headboat fishery for red...
