Introduction Interstate water disputes are an increasingly common occurrence throughout the United States, as the demands on transboundary water resources continue to increase in magnitude and diversity. These disputes can involve a variety of water-related issues. In the arid and semi-arid West, the interstate allocation-or "apportionment"-is normally the central and often only concern. In the...

This study examined the growth, activity, metabolism and post-release survival of three groups of Florida largemouth bass Micropterus floridanus: wild-caught fish, hatchery fish reared according to standard practice (hatchery standard) and hatchery fish reared under reduced and unpredictable food provisioning (hatchery manipulated). Hatchery-standard fish differed from wild-caught fish in all m...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the allocation of output and the water supply for two firms to produce differentiated product in two oligopoly game models established under the settings of complete information and incomplete information respectively. By solving a linear demand system model, this paper obtains the corresponding allocation results of output and the water supply for tw...

We engage in a critical assessment of the neo-malthusian claim that climatic changes can be an important source of international tensions, in the extreme even militarized interstate disputes. The most likely scenario is conflict over water allocation in international catchments shared by poorer, less democratic, and politically less stable countries, governed by weak international water managem...

Management of water resources often involves significant negotiation with regard to complex social, economic and environmental trade-offs likely to result from changes in policy or access. In NSW, changes to water allocations and access, through the design and implementation of Water Sharing Plans, involved negotiation between stakeholders representing many different interests and concerns. A k...
