Modeling ecological constraints on tropical forest management: Comment
(Elsevier B.V. The publisher's definitive copy can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/622870/description#description, 1997)We comment on four aspects of Albers' [1] model of ecological constraints on tropical forest management. Albers structures her model in a highly asymmetric manner, with strong, uniform biases against development and in ... -
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the equivalence of economic and ecological criteria in range management
(Elsevier, 2005)For rangelands managed with spatial and temporal controls, [a] the long run expected net cost of management operations, [b] the long run rate of moving grazing from one paddock to another, and [c] the long run rate of ... -
On temporal controls and the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources
(Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/resourpol, 2002)This paper provides a theoretical analysis of the effects of temporal controls on the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources such as fisheries and rangelands. First, we show that temporal resource management ... -
A Probabilistic approach to optimal orchard management
(Elsevier, 2006-11-13)The formal study of orchard management in which an orchard is viewed as a jointly determined ecological-economic system is still in its infancy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new way of looking at the problem ... -
A Stochastic model of waste management with on and off site storage
(Elsevier, 2007)When the regulatory threshold which specifies the maximum amount of waste that can be stored on site is exceeded, a waste generating firm must move waste to an off site location. Given that off site storage is costlier ...
