Land-use conflicts arise if land is scarce, land-use types are mutually exclusive, and vary in their effects with regard to more than one incongruent policy objective. If these effects depend on the spatial location of the land-use measures the conflict can be mediated through an appropriate...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to elicit young economists’ job preferences through the use of a choice experiment (CE). Design/methodology/approach: A CE conducted at a total of five universities in Spain, the Czech Republic and Germany. After estimating a random parameter logit model,...

This collection presents an updated bibliography of those empirical forest ecosystem service valuation studies in the German speaking countries which relate to demand oriented measures of the utility of public goods. The associated database (which is provided as a separately downloadable...

Ziel der Arbeit ist, den ökonomischen Nutzen wesentlicher Ökosystemleistungen des Waldes in Deutschland in seiner jeweiligen regionalen Verteilung aus Nachfragesicht zu ermitteln und regionale Leistungsschwerpunkte zu identifizieren. Diese Informationen werden zu einem konsistenten Modell...

In this study, we augment the traditional travel cost approach with contingent behavior data for coastal recreation. The objective is to analyze the welfare implications of future changes in the conditions of the Baltic Sea due to climate change and eutrophication. Adding to the literature, we...

Efficient and sustainable solutions for offsetting residual emissions via carbon dioxide removal are a major challenge. Proposed removal methods result in trade-offs with other Sustainable Development Goals, and the removal needs of many countries exceed their domestic potentials. Here, we...

Um Präferenzen für Maßnahmen zur Stärkung von Sicherheit und Verteidigung als öffentlichem Gut zu bestimmen, bieten sich repräsentativ durchgeführte diskrete Entscheidungsexperimente an. Ein solches umfragegestütztes Experiment offenbart für Deutschland eine große Wertschätzung für...

Efficient experimental designs aim to maximise the information obtained from stated choice data to estimate discrete choice models' parameters statistically efficiently. Almost without exception efficient experimental designs assume that decision-makers use a Random Utility Maximisation (RUM)...
