A conceptual approach is commonly needed to provide guidance for empirical analyses concerning the use of renewable resources such as rangelands. The theoretical model constructed in this paper captures the essential aspects of dynamic and stochastic issues associated with the management of...

This draft PhD thesis analyzes four issues in the research field that consists of the intersection of environmental economics, uncertainty, and decision-making. 1. Economic investments that lead to environmental damages beyond repair - like cutting rainforests or emitting pollutants with long...

MCDM methods are useful to obtain information and generate knowledge useful for decision-making processes in multidisciplinary contexts. Particularly, when conflicts occur, knowledge is the key to start negotiation processes between stakeholders in order to achieve consensual solutions. The...

The Arrow/Fisher/Henry/ study of land development in the presence of uncertainty has been conducted in a two period model in which the development decision is indivisible. Very recently, this study has been extended to analyze the development problem in a multi-period framework. Nevertheless,...

We consider optimal stopping problems for ambiguity averse decision makers with multiple priors. In general, backward induction fails. If, however, the class of priors is time-consistent, we establish a generalization of the classical theory of optimal stopping. To this end, we develop first...
