Optimal monitoring and control under state uncertainty: Application to lionfish management

Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 84, 223–245.

By: D. Kling*, J. Sanchirico * & P. Fackler n

author keywords: Monitoring; State uncertainty; Bioeconomics; Partially observable Markov decision process; Invasive species; Lionfish
TL;DR: It is found that the ability to learn through monitoring can alter the role of population control in the optimal policy function, for example by reducing control intensity in favor of monitoring. (via Semantic Scholar)

Preference Heterogeneity in the Structural Estimation of Efficient Pigovian Incentives for Insecticide Spraying to Reduce Malaria

Environmental and Resource Economics, 70(1), 169–190.

By: Z. Brown n  & R. Kramer *

author keywords: Discrete choice models; Preference heterogeneity; Externalities; Pigovian incentives; Malaria; Insecticides; Locational sorting models
TL;DR: The theoretical structure similar to locational sorting models, which characterize equilibria in terms of marginal individuals who are indifferent between locations, is used and can be applied to other bioeconomic externalities with spillovers from discrete preventative actions, including agricultural pest management and the control of pest infestations and invasive species.

Optimization of decision rules for hydroelectric operation to reduce both eel mortality and unnecessary turbine shutdown: A search for a win-win solution

RIVER RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS, 33(8), 1279–1285.

By: D. Smith *, P. Fackler n, S. Eyler*, L. Ortiz n & S. Welsh*

author keywords: American eel; decision analysis; hydropower; trade-offs
TL;DR: A predictive model for eel migration based on a recent telemetry study was used to develop decision rules for turbine management in the Shenandoah River system and a range of cut‐off probabilities resulted in a win–win situation with both reduced eel mortality and increased turbine operation relative to the current shutdown strategy.
