INTEGRATION OF GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS BASED SPATIAL ANALYSIS IN RECREATION DEMAND ANALYSIS

Bhat, Gajanan; Bergstrom, John C. - Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, … - 1996

This study has examined the use of an Object-Oriented GIS framework to generate and analyze spatial data in recreation … demand analysis. Several forms of GIS analysis are introduced and explained as how they can be utilized in recreational … demand analysis. An application of GIS to calculate journey distance and duration has been illustrated with a case study of …

Irrigated Acreage Projections in Georgia

Cai, Ruohong; Mullen, Jeffrey D.; Bergstrom, John C. - Southern Agricultural Economics Association - SAEA - 2010

Irrigated acreage is an important indicator for agricultural water demand which is a major category of water use. Three methodologies were applied in this study to project irrigated acreage of major crops in Georgia from 2010 to 2050. These three methodologies show consistent results. Total...

A Spatiotemporal Fixed Effects Estimation of U.S. State-Level Carbon Dioxide Emissions

Burnett, J. Wesley; Bergstrom, John C. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2011

One of the major shortcommings of past environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) studies is that the spatiotemporal aspects within the data have largely been ignored. By ignoring the spatial aspect of pollution emissions past estimates of the EKC implicitly assume that a region’s emissions are...

Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Farm Production and Profitability: Dynamic Simulation Approach

Cai, Ruohong; Bergstrom, John C.; Mullen, Jeffrey D.; … - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2011

In this paper, a dynamic optimization model was developed to simulate how farm-level realized price and profitability respond to yield change which was induced by climate change. Producers' acreage response was included in the dynamic model considering crop rotation effect. In the crop rotation...

Accounting for Geographic Heterogeneity in Recreation Demand Models

Sardana, Kavita; Bowker, James Michael; Bergstrom, John C. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2008

Spatial differences in site characteristics and user populations may result in heterogeneity of recreation preferences and values across geographic regions. Non-linear mixed effects models provide a potential means of accounting for this heterogeneity. This approach was tested by estimating a...

MEASURING VALUES FOR WETLANDS PROTECTION IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY FROM DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL CITIZEN GROUPS

Allen, James C.; Bergstrom, John C. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2003

Because of pressures to convert natural areas to commercial economic development uses, protecting natural areas in developing countries is a major challenge. A developing country may desire to protect natural areas, but relatively high out-of-pocket and opportunity costs of protection may pose...

THE ROLE OF THE BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT IN THE PROVISION OF OUTDOOR RECREATION OPPORTUNITIES IN THE WEST

Gentle, Paul F.; Bergstrom, John C.; Betz, Carter J.; … - Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, … - 2002

Future demand projections reported in this paper indicate a steady increase in demand for outdoor recreational opportunities in U.S. regions where BLM lands are located. From a supply perspective, BLM lands represent "prime targets" for meeting increased recreational demand in the western U.S....

OUTDOOR RECREATION TRENDS AND MARKET OPPORTUNITIES IN THE UNITED STATES

Cordell, H. Ken; McDonald, Barbara L.; Briggs, J. Alden; … - Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, … - 1997

In 1994 and 1995, the National Survey of Recreation and Environment (NSRE) was accomplished by interviewing approximately 17,000 Americans over age 15 in random-digit-dialing telephone samplings. The primary purpose was to learn about the outdoor recreation activities of people over age 15 in...
