This paper applies recent developments in forecasting spatial process models to estimate the impact of input shocks on China's 1999 gross value added output (GVAO) in agriculture. A Cobb-Douglas production function allowing total factor productivity to vary across regions is used to forecast the...

This study tests the hypothesis that a higher present value of expected rental stream of undeveloped land in the urban growth area influences the effect of the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) on the values of newly developed houses in Knoxville and Knox County, Tennessee. We estimate a version of...

This study accounts for spatial spillover and spatial heterogeneity to estimate housing growth between 1990 and 2000 using Tennessee census-block group data. A deterministic estimation method, inverse distance weighted averaging is used to create neighborhood variables that can capture more...
