Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazonia and Spatial Heterogeneity: a Local Environmental Kuznets Curve Approach
There is a concern about the increasing pressure over the forest as economic growth increases. As for the Brazilian Amazon deforestation, there are noticeable intra-regional differences due to its occupation history, extensive area, economic structure and geographical aspects, inducing a strong spatial heterogeneity in this environmental phenomenon. This paper investigates locally the Environme...
متن کاملThe Environmental Kuznets Curve, environmental protection policy and income distribution
The effect of economic growth on pollution emissions differs substantially among high-income countries. I address this issue by analyzing public environmental policy decisions. Individual heterogeneity, relative income effect and the political framework in which policy decisions are taken determine the emergence of the downward sloping segment of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). Income in...
متن کاملImpact of Amazonian deforestation on atmospheric chemistry
[1] A single-column chemistry and climate model has been used to study the impact of deforestation in the Amazon Basin on atmospheric chemistry. Over deforested areas, daytime ozone deposition generally decreases strongly except when surface wetness decreases through reduced precipitation, whereas nocturnal soil deposition increases. The isoprene and soil nitric oxide emissions decrease althoug...

متن کاملEnvironmental Kuznets Curve
cointegration Classical regression analysis assumes that the error term in a regression is normally and independently distributed. An extreme violation of this condition is when the error term is a random walk. Such a regression is termed a spurious regression and the results are not reliable. It usually indicates that a required variable with random walk behavior has been omitted from the mode...
