  • The evolution of urban sprawl

    Open AccessElena G Irwin, Nancy E BockstaelARTICLEProceedings of the National…2007

    We investigate the dynamics and spatial distribution of land use fragmentation in a rapidly urbanizing region of the United States to test key propositions regarding the evolution of sprawl. Using selected pattern metrics and data from 1973 and 2000 for the state of Maryland, we find significant increases in developed and undeveloped land fragmentation but substantial spatial heterogeneity as well. Estimated fragmentation gradients that describe …

  • Interacting agents, spatial externalities and the evolution of residential land use patterns

    Elena G Irwin, Nancy E BockstaelARTICLEJournal of Economic Geography2002Cited by: 28References: 1

    We develop a model of land use conversion that incorporates local spillover effects among spatially distributed agents. The model is used to test the hypothesis that fragmented patterns of development in rural‐urban fringe areas could be due to negative externalities that create a ‘repelling’ effect among residential land parcels. Identification of the hypothesized interaction effect is complicated by unobserved, spatially correlated heterogeneit…

  • On Measuring Economic Values for Nature

    Nancy E Bockstael, A Myrick Freeman et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Technology2000

    This paper describes how economists ascribe values to the things people can choose. The economic value of an ecosystem function or service relates to the contribution it makes to human welfare, where human welfare is measured in terms of each individual's own assessment of well-being. After developing how this definition is used, the paper describes problems and opportunities for advancing the state-of-the-art in measuring economic values for nat…

  • Applying the Generalized-Moments Estimation Approach to Spatial Problems Involving Micro-Level Data

    Kathleen P Bell, Nancy E BockstaelARTICLEThe Review of Economics and…2000

    The application of spatial econometrics techniques to microlevel data of firms or households is problematic because of potentially large sample sizes and more-complicated spatial weight matrices. This paper provides the first application to actual household-level data of a new generalized-moments (GM) estimation technique developed by Kelejian and Prucha. The results based on this method, which is computationally feasible for any size data set, t…
