Advancing low-emission rice farming in Vietnam
Decarbonising rice farming is pivotal for Vietnam’s pursuit of net-zero emissions by 2050 while maintaining its status as a leading global rice exporter. Drawing on qualitative data from surveys of 46 stakeholders–including government, business, and civil society representatives–and expert interviews, this study examines the socio-economic and institutional barriers to the adoption of low-emission rice farming practices. Key barriers include insu…
From service provider to investment platform? The limits of cooperative upgrading in Vietnam
Smallholder farmers in developing countries often face persistent barriers to productive investment arising from fragmented landholdings, limited collateral, and risk-averse decision-making, even where agricultural cooperatives provide valued services. This article examines why locally valued cooperatives struggle to move beyond service provision to mobilise farm investment. Using a mechanism-focused case study in Vietnam, we combine a household …
A tale of two rivers - Baaka and Martuwarra, Australia
Two of Australia's iconic river systems, Baaka in New South Wales (NSW) and Martuwarra in Western Australia (WA), are described in a narrative that connects Indigenous custodianship, bio-physical features and art, and contrasts settler law with First Law to provide multiple ways of seeing the two river systems. Our narrative is a shared response to: (1) upstream water extractions that have imposed large costs on Baaka and its peoples; and (2) thr…
Effects of Closures and Openings on Public Health in the Time of Covid-19
Many countries mandated social distancing measures during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 to 2022 that variously included opening hours restrictions on hospitality and retail, economy-wide closures, and additional international border controls. We analyzed whether more restrictive (hereafter, closures) or less restrictive (hereafter, openings) social distancing measures changed the short-term trends in the number of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations…
Optimal post-border surveillance against invasive pests to protect a valuable nature reserve and island asset
Harmful and often catastrophic damages from the introduction of non-indigenous species (NIS) are widely acknowledged. While preventing the introduction of NIS through border and pre-border measures has been the first line of defence, post-border surveillance has recently attracted considerable attention as it increases the likelihood that small invasive populations will be found and eradicated quickly before they become widespread. We develop a n…
Prospects of fish supply-demand and its implications for food and nutrition security in Egypt
Aquaculture plays an increasingly important role in meeting the rising global demand for fish fuelled by economic and demographic growth. However, in many middle-income countries, aquaculture is constrained by rising labour costs, limited input supply, environmental concerns, and infectious diseases. In this paper, we developed a multi-species, multi-sector equilibrium model and applied it to the fishery sector of Egypt, a leading aquaculture pro…
What vaccination rate(s) minimize total societal costs after ’opening up’ to Covid-19? Age-structured Sirm results for the Delta variant in Australia (New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia)
Using three age-structured, stochastic SIRM models, calibrated to Australian data post July 2021 with community transmission of the Delta variant, we projected possible public health outcomes (daily cases, hospitalisations, ICU beds, ventilators and fatalities) and economy costs for three states: New South Wales (NSW), Victoria (VIC) and Western Australia (WA). NSW and VIC have had on-going community transmission from July 2021 and were in ‘lockd…
Operationalizing marketable blue carbon
A global analysis of the break-even prices to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide via forest plantation and avoided deforestation
A cross-country assessment of the cost of carbon sequestration in the forest sector is needed for planning and achieving climate commitments, such as the Paris Agreement, at global, regional, national, or sectoral scales. We provide a global and bottom-up assessment of the break-even carbon price to undertake forest plantation and forest conservation at a country level for 166 nations. We construct a global dataset of key cost factors, examine th…

Realizing resilience for decision-making
A practical optimal surveillance policy for invasive weeds
Military Support of Citizens' Challenge in the Asian Industrialized Countries
When do militaries in the newly industrialized countries of East and Southeast Asia support their governments, when do they support citizens' challenge of government, and when do they launch coups? We propose and test a theory of military behavior using data from across East and Southeast Asia between the 1970s and 2008. The results corroborate the model's predictions to make four contributions: First, the model provides a framework of military b…
Optimal water tariffs and supply augmentation for cost-of-service regulated water utilities
Targets and Fisheries Management in the A sia and P acific Region
Marine fisheries in the A sia and the P acific region play an important role in global, regional and national economies. Many of the fisheries in the region are over‐exploited, both biologically and economically. We focus on the use of appropriate fishery targets, and the importance of tying those targets to management objectives to overcome the usual and unwanted negative externalities that occur in ocean fisheries, the ones that result in subst…
