Optimal harvesting of stochastic spatial resources
We characterize the optimal harvest of a renewable resource in a generalized stochastic spatially explicit model. Despite the complexity of the model, we are able to obtain sharp analytical results. We find that the optimal harvest rule in general depends upon dispersal patterns of the resource across space, and only in special circumstances do we find a modified golden rule of growth that is i...
متن کاملOptimal sampling strategies for multiscale stochastic processes
In this paper, we determine which non-random sampling of fixed size gives the best linear predictor of the sum of a finite spatial population. We employ different multiscale superpopulation models and use the minimum mean-squared error as our optimality criterion. In multiscale superpopulation tree models, the leaves represent the units of the population, interior nodes represent partial sums o...
متن کاملHarvesting in Stochastic Environments: Optimal Policies in a Relaxed Model
This paper examines the objective of optimally harvesting a single species in a stochastic environment. This problem has previously been analyzed in Alvarez (2000) using dynamic programming techniques and, due to the natural payoff structure of the price rate function (the price decreases as the population increases), no optimal harvesting policy exists. This paper establishes a relaxed formula...

متن کاملComputing Near Optimal Strategies for Stochastic Investment Planning Problems
We present efficient techniques for computing near optimal strategies for a class of stochastic commodity trading problems modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs). The process has a continuous state space and a large action space and cannot be solved efficiently by standard dynamic programming methods. We exploit structural properties of the process, and combine it with MonteCarlo estimatio...
