A strategic environmental water rights market for Colorado River reallocation
The Colorado River system is among the world’s most overallocated basins, struggling to supply water to the southwestern United States and Mexico. Consequently, 90% of the basin’s native fish species are endangered, threatened or extinct. Driven by a 24-year megadrought, the United States allocated over US$4 billion for drought mitigation, including water market transactions that pay farms, cities and industries to divert less water across the US…
Socio-hydrological impacts of rate design on water affordability during drought
Unaffordable water threatens water access in the United States, particularly for low-income households. In water-scarce cities, water shortages during drought necessitate either expensive infrastructure development or costly emergency measures to meet demand, which can in turn increase water rates. Rate design plays a key role in determining whether these costs threaten water affordability for low-income households, but water utilities are often …
Pāwehe Ke Kai a‘o Hā‘ena
Much research has demonstrated the effectiveness of customary indigenous management at conserving natural resources. However, little is known about integrating customary management with state-level institutions. We present a model case study of collaborative rulemaking based upon customary norms for interacting with resources. We explore the efforts of one Hawai‘i community to create formal state law based on customary norms to understand: (1) Wh…
Sense of Place Among Hunter-Gatherers
This research examines sense of place among hunter-gatherers. More specifically, it assesses whether or not hunter-gatherers are focused on social parameters when they form their sense of place. Most previous research of sense of place has taken place in industrial society where humans have become disconnected from the surrounding lands and spaces. As hunter-gatherers are dependent on the surrounding lands and spaces, this research will add valua…
Assessment of human–natural system characteristics influencing global freshwater supply vulnerability
Global freshwater vulnerability is a product of environmental and human dimensions, however, it is rarely assessed as such. Our approach identifies freshwater vulnerability using four broad categories: endowment, demand, infrastructure, and institutions, to capture impacts on natural and managed water systems within the coupled human–hydrologic environment. These categories are represented by 19 different endogenous and exogenous characteristics …

Institutional incentives for managing the landscape
People or Prairie Chickens
A quarter of a century ago, Professor William Baxter published a widely read and influential book on the law and economics of pollution control entitled People or Penguins: The Case for Optimal Pollution. This paper pays tribute to Professor Baxter by using the logic of People or Penguins to examine current efforts to preserve biodiversity in the United States. The paper criticizes the failure of the Endangered Species Act to fully consider the c…
