This chapter lays out the economic theory underpinning grid cell behavior in SIMPLE-G. It focuses on the case of two inputs: natural resources and human produced inputs. However, the theory is quite general and can be applied to many different versions of SIMPLE-G. Here, we lay out the key parameters governing the incidence and effectiveness of conservation policies as well as the consequences of changes in technology and commodity prices. These insights will be used to aid in explaining complex results in the applications presented in Part IV of this book.

摘要

This chapter lays out the economic theory underpinning grid cell behavior in SIMPLE-G. It focuses on the case of two inputs: natural resources and human produced inputs. However, the theory is quite general and can be applied to many different versions of SIMPLE-G. Here, we lay out the key parameters governing the incidence and effectiveness of conservation policies as well as the consequences of changes in technology and commodity prices. These insights will be used to aid in explaining complex results in the applications presented in Part IV of this book.
