Spatial analysis of state policy effects on renewable energy generation capacity in the United States
The effect of information structure on farmland contractual choice
Optimal dynamic electricity consumption function estimation
This research demonstrates from a dynamic optimal perspective that electricity consumption for a metropolitan area is a function of economic output, electricity consumption habits, and electricity demand management reform. The empirical results include: (1) an unidirectional Granger causality exists linking economic output to electricity consumption; (2) given electricity consumption habits under the context of the electricity demand management r…
Economic growth and deforestation in African countries
GIS-based multi-criteria decision analysis of utility-scale wind farm site suitability in West Virginia
Place Effects and Chronic Disease Rates in a Rural State
High rates of chronic diseases and increasing nutritional polarization between different income groups in the United States are issues of concern to policymakers and public health officials. Spatial differences in access to food are mainly blamed as the cause for these nutritional inequalities. This study first detected hot and cold spots of food providers in West Virginia and then used those places in a quasi-experimental method (entropy balanci…
Benefit transfer estimation of willingness-to-pay for U.S. wetlands conservation
Measuring benefits of rural-to-urban water transfer
Event Quality Versus Event Quantity
Group decision-making theory and behavior under performance-based water quality payments
Private Provision of a Public Good
Governments may fail to adequately supply public goods, due, in part, to declining budgets and entrenched methods of provision. This undersupply provides opportunities for private organizations to supplement governmental efforts in the provision of goods with positive externalities. This study examines a case where a local, nongovernmental organization conducts a fish stocking program on a restored public waterway in West Virginia. Results show t…

Indeed, it is quite likely that, like its origins, the end of the Cold War will have its equivalents of orthodoxy and revisionism. Of all the players in this story it is Mikhail Gorbachev who will take the leading role; for some the hero and for …
