Estimating Spatial Interactions in Forest Clearing∗
We estimate the effects of neighbors’ deforestation actions on individuals’ deforestation decisions in Costa Rica. We find evidence that neighbors’ effects are positive and significant. To address simultaneity and spatially correlated unobservable factors, we instrument for neighboring deforestation using neighboring land parcel characteristics. Under the presence of interactions, local forest ...
متن کاملEstimating Aboveground Net Primary Productivity in Forest-Dominated Ecosystems
T he measurement of net primary productivity (NPP) in forest ecosystems presents a variety of challenges because of the large and complex dimensions of trees and the difficulties of quantifying several components of NPP. As summarized by Clark et al. (2001a), these methodological challenges can be overcome, and more reliable spatial and temporal comparisons can be provided, only if greater conc...
متن کاملExpanding site productivity research to sustain non-timber forest functions
Southern forests produce multiple products and services including timber, wildlife habitat, species bioand genetic diversity, water quality and control, waste remediation, recreation, and carbon sequestration. All of these benefits must be produced in a sustainable manner to meet today’s societal needs without compromising future needs. A forest site is productive to the extent that it provides...
متن کاملPotential site productivity influences the rate of forest structural development.
Development and maintenance of structurally complex forests in landscapes formerly managed for timber production is an increasingly common management objective. It has been postulated that the rate of forest structural development increases with site productivity. We tested this hypothesis for Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) forests using a network of permanent study plots es...
متن کاملestimating claims reserves using ibnr reserves
شرکت های بیمه در قبال بیمه گذاران متعهد می شوند که به ازای دریافت حق بیمه، خسارت وارده به بیمه گذاران را جبران نمایند. بنابراین بیمه گر همیشه مبالغی را بر عهده دارد که متعلق به بیمه گذاران است و مربوط به تعهدات آینده می باشد. این مبالغ را ذخایر فنی یا technical reserves گویند. بیمه گر موظف است در پایان سال مالی، هنگام بستن حساب ها، ذخایر فنی را محاسبه و نگهداری کند. پس از وقوع خسارت، بیمه گذار ...
