Consequences of ecological aggregation in general equilibrium analysis of perturbed ecosystems
Fish or not fish—fisheries participation and harvest diversification under economic and ecological change
Fish harvesters respond to economic, regulatory, and environmental changes within complex and often highly uncertain decision-making processes. Analyzing and quantifying human decisions can improve our understanding and sustainable management of marine systems. Wild fish harvesters face high income volatility linked to natural variability in fish abundance, changing ocean environments, and world market dynamics. Past research has shown that ownin…
Investing to Both Prevent and Prepare for Covid-XX
One cause of the high rate of COVID-19 cases in the USA is thought to be insufficient prior capital investment in national health programs to preemptively reduce the likelihood of an outbreak and in national capacity to reduce the severity of any outbreak that does occur. We analyze the choice of capital investments (e.g. testing capacity, stockpiles of PPE, and information sharing capacity) and find the economically efficient capital stock assoc…
The consequences of misrepresenting feedbacks in coupled human and environmental models
Hesitancy Toward a Covid-19 Vaccine
When does natural science uncertainty translate into economic uncertainty
Catastrophic Risk
What are the benefits of delisting endangered species and who receives them
Testing for Covid-19
Widespread testing is key to controlling the spread of COVID-19. But should we worry about self-selection bias in the testing? The recent literature on willful ignorance says we should – people often avoid health information. In the context of COVID-19, such willful ignorance can bias testing data. Furthermore, willful ignorance often arises when selfish wants conflict with social benefits, which might be particularly likely for potential ‘super-…
The Benefits and Costs of Using Social Distancing to Flatten the Curve for Covid-19
We examine the net benefits of social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19 in USA. Social distancing saves lives but imposes large costs on society due to reduced economic activity. We use epidemiological and economic forecasting to perform a rapid benefit–cost analysis of controlling the COVID-19 outbreak. Assuming that social distancing measures can substantially reduce contacts among individuals, we find net benefits of about $5.2 trillio…
The Economic Case for a Pandemic Fund
Impacts of Pathogen Introduction Risk on Importer Behavior and Gains from Trade in the Livestock Industry
Merging Economics and Epidemiology to Improve the Prediction and Management of Infectious Disease
Mathematical epidemiology, one of the oldest and richest areas in mathematical biology, has significantly enhanced our understanding of how pathogens emerge, evolve, and spread. Classical epidemiological models, the standard for predicting and managing the spread of infectious disease, assume that contacts between susceptible and infectious individuals depend on their relative frequency in the population. The behavioral factors that underpin cont…

Is economic growth for the birds
Invasive species and delaying the inevitable
Take a risk
Identifying, preventing and controlling invasive plant species using their physiological traits
Managing invasive species
The importance of bioeconomic feedback in invasive species management
