Book Resource and Environmental Economics

Download or read book Resource and Environmental Economics written by Anthony C. Fisher and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1981-11-30 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the major themes of the economic literature on natural resources and the environment. It is designed to bring the reader, in part with the aid of a unified model of optimal resource use, to the frontiers of the discipline, using only elementary mathematical models. Features special to exhaustible and renewable resources, including the problems posed by market imperfections, are treated as extensions of the basic model. The theoretical discussion is enriched with examples and applications, including a systematic investigation of the behaviour of resource reserves, costs, prices, and substitution possibilities. Substantial attention to environmental, as well as extractive, resources is a distinctive aspect of this book. The author describes methods of estimating the environmental costs of resource development and other projects, and presents some key empirical findings. Policy instruments to protect the environment, such as taxes, subsidies, marketable permits, and direct controls, are carefully analysed from a welfare-theoretic point of view.

Book Economic Theory and Exhaustible Resources

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book on the economics of exhaustible resources requires no justification. A long book does. The purist will find disquieting our two-asset, constant population model with which we analyse growth possibilities in an economy with exhaustible resources.

Book Lecture Notes on Resource and Environmental Economics

Download or read book Lecture Notes on Resource and Environmental Economics written by Anthony C. Fisher and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, based on lectures on natural and environmental resource economics, offers a nontechnical exposition of the modern theory of sustainability in the presence of resource scarcity. It applies an alternative take on environmental economics, focusing on the economics of the natural environment, including development, computation, and potential empirical importance of the concept of option value, as opposed to the standard treatment of the economics of pollution control. The approach throughout is primarily conceptual and theoretical, though empirical estimation and results are sometimes noted. Mathematics, ranging from elementary calculus to more formal dynamic optimization, is used, especially in the early chapters on the optimal management of exhaustible and renewable resources, but results are always given an economic interpretation. Diagrams and numerical examples are also used extensively. The first chapter introduces the classical economists as the first resource economists, in their discussion of the implications of a limited natural resource base (agricultural land) for the evolution of the wider economy. A later chapter returns to the same concerns, along with others stimulated by the energy and environmental “crises” of the 1970s and beyond. One section considers alternative measures of resource scarcity and empirical findings on their behavior over time. Another introduces the modern concept of sustainability with an intuitive development of the analytics. A chapter on the dynamics of environmental management motivates the concept of option value, shows how to compute it, then demonstrates its importance in an illustrative empirical example. The closing chapter, on climate change, first projects future changes and potential catastrophic impacts, then discusses the policy relevance of both option value and discounting for the very long run. This book is intended for resource and environmental economists and can be read by interested graduate and advanced undergraduate students in the field as well.

Book Optimal Depletion of an Exhaustible Resource

Download or read book Optimal Depletion of an Exhaustible Resource written by Suresh Sethi and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers an optimal control problem for the dynamics of an exhaustible natural resource model, the optimal control being the price over time to maximize the total present value of a parameterized social welfare function under the assumption that a substitute become available at a high enough price. Thus, the problem can be reinterpreted as one of the optimal phasing-in of an expensive substitute. Furthermore, the problem is constrained in the sense that the total consumption of the natural resource implied by a price trajectory via the assumed demand function must not exceed the available reserves. The problem is solved, using the maximum principle, for a complete range of the parameter reflecting the weights assigned to the consumer's surplus and the producer's surplus in the social welfare function. The results and algorithms obtained in the paper are illustrated by an example.

Book Classic Papers in Natural Resource Economics Revisited

Download or read book Classic Papers in Natural Resource Economics Revisited written by Chennat Gopalakrishnan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Papers in Natural Resource Economics Revisited is the first attempt to bring together a selection of classic papers in natural resource economics, alongside reflections by highly regarded professionals about how these papers have impacted the field. The seven papers included in this volume are grouped into five sections, representing the five core areas in natural resource economics: the intertemporal problem; externalities and market failure; property rights, institutions and public choice; the economics of exhaustible resources; and the economics of renewable resources. The seven papers are written by distinguished economists, five of them Nobelists. The papers, originally published between 1960 and 2000, addressed key issues in resource production, pricing, consumption, planning, management and policy. The original insights, fresh perspectives and bold vision embodied in these papers had a profound influence on the readership and they became classics in the field. This is the first attempt to publish original commentaries from a diverse group of scholars to identify, probe and analyse the ways in which these papers have impacted and shaped the discourse in natural resource economics. Although directed primarily at an academic audience, this book should also be of great appeal to researchers, policy analysts, and natural resource professionals, in general. This book was published as a series of symposia in the Journal of Natural Resources Policy Research.
