Abstract:

The subject of the study – the mechanism of redistribution of economic benefits that arise from the use of natural resources. The purpose of the article is to identify the dependence of the amount of rent natural resource payments on the intensity of nature use and the socio–economic consequences of their redistribution. Research methodology – methods of analysis and synthesis (in the systematization of indicators of natural resource payments); method of comparison (when assessing the intensity of nature management); method of analogy (in identifying the peculiarities of paym

The analysis and characterization of the essential and substantive basis of the concept of behavioral economics in rational nature management was carried out. To achieve the goal of the research, the article presents an assessment of the transformational process of behavioral economics in the environmentalization of agriculture in the temporal dimension, which is the construction of a cause-and-effect model with a reflection and thorough characterization of compliance with rational and irrational axioms, as well as individual ecological characteristics.

Abstract:

Summary - There is no intrinsic reason why ecology cannot be accommodated within economics - An inventory measuring the increase or decrease in natural resources is needed - To properly discuss welfare or wellbeing requires a focus on assets - It would be a mistake to use GDP to discuss economic success over the long run - Humanity’s demand for nature’s goods and services vastly exceeds the earth’s capacity to supply them on a sustainable basis.

Abstract:

The coordination plays central role in the economics. The conventional economic theory looks at the market and enterprise (or hierarchy) as two different, separated manner of coordination of economic goods and services. However the modern organization theory, price theory and institutional economics show that different types (not only market and enterprise, but also several types of hybrid forms) of coordination (or governance structure) necessarily live together in the current economic system. Based on my previous research on the field of regional clusters in the food industry I came to the c

With the world’s growing population, impacts from climate change, and increasing urbanization, it is clear nature cannot handle all the CDR needed.

Abstract:

In its infrastructure development work, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) engages and collaborates with numerous local, state, and national stakeholders. Projects incorporating innovative approaches, such as beneficial use (BU) of dredged materials and other natural and nature-based features (NNBF), are often not well-understood by stakeholders, including those at the community level. This often results in conflicts and project delays. By sponsoring the development of a Community Engagement Framework, the Dredging Operations and Environmental Research (DOER) program hopes to systematicall

Abstract:

Addressing climate change impacts on ecosystems and livelihoods requires adaptation planning grounded in robust, multi-dimensional risk assessments. The Enhancing Risk Assessments (ERA) for Improved Country Risk Financing Strategies project supports the Thai Government partners in developing comprehensive climate risk financing strategies by integrating economic, non-economic, and macroeconomic modelling using the Economics of Climate Adaptation (ECA) framework, CLIMADA, and DGE-CRED. RISK WISE interface acts as a user-friendly Graphical User Interface to explore and display the results. Focus

Abstract:

Climate change poses escalating risks to Egypt’s ecosystems, economy, and vulnerable populations, particularly through heatwaves and flash floods. The Enhancing Risk Assessments (ERA) project supports the Egyptian Government in developing data-driven adaptation and risk financing strategies using an integrated modelling framework that combines the Economics of Climate Adaptation (ECA), CLIMADA, and DGE-CRED. RISK WISE interface acts as a user-friendly Graphical User Interface to explore and display the results. Analysis under future climate scenarios reveals that agriculture, tourism, and ener

Abstract:

This paper presents a series of experiments on discrimination in urban Lima, Peru. The experiments exploit degrees of information on performance as a way to assess how personal characteristics affect how people sort into groups, and the results show that behavior is not correlated with personal socio-economic and racial characteristics. However, people do use personal characteristics to sort themselves into groups. Height is a robust predictor of being desirable, as is being a woman. Looking indigenous makes one less desirable, and looking "white" increases one's desirability. Interestingly, o

Abstract:

Presented at the 10th Annual Conference on Global Economic Analysis, Purdue University, USA Team research has been much more widespread in the natural sciences than in economics. Yet when it comes to modeling an economy (especially the global economy) in detail, the quantity and range of inputs necessary makes team work the only viable option. Drawing some inspiration from Australian experience, GTAP’s founder, Tom Hertel, realized this from his Project’s inception in 1993. The data base required to model international trade flows could not have been developed without the enthusiastic cooperat
