Can Environmental Markets Pay for More Sustainable Farm Dams? A Cost–Benefit Analysis
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Farm dams are widespread artificial waterbodies that play a critical role in agricultural water security. Enhancing these systems through sustainable interventions such as fencing, hardened access points, and revegetation can improve water quality and deliver carbon and biodiversity co‐benefits.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Urban Water Demand: Income and Price Elasticities
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We use bimonthly water consumption data from 580,000 households in the metropolitan region of Western Australia over the period 2015–2020 to analyse urban residential water demand. A generalised two‐stage least squares (G2SLS) approach is used to estimate water consumption as a function of price, household income, weather variables, property ...
