Health care priorities and the effects of double rationing

, 2012
The purpose of my research is to investigate double rationing which entails rationing at two levels of the health care system. At one level, policy makers prioritize treatments that will be covered under a publicly financed health care system.

Limited Effects of Temperature on Captive Eastern Hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis alleganiensis) Growth

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
While higher temperatures are generally expected to increase amphibian growth, our experiments with captive‐reared Eastern Hellbenders found no evidence that growth increased at a rearing temperature of 21°C relative to 16°C. As Eastern Hellbender reintroduction efforts move forward, a focus on other conditions, such as density or diet, might be more ...

Effects of Density and Food Availability on the Growth of Captive‐Reared Eastern Hellbenders

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Our experiments demonstrate that food is the major factor limiting captive‐reared Hellbender growth and that increasing rearing density to the tested levels does not negatively impact growth. Implementing these changes may result in larger, more robust Hellbenders and increase the success of reintroduction programs.

Policy Evaluation for Climate Mitigations in the European Agricultural Sector—A Comparison of Policy Options at Micro and Macro Level

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to discuss the micro‐ and macro‐outcomes for the standard neoclassical carbon tax (whose burden falls on the producers) versus the implication of a budget neutral, performance‐based EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) focusing on non‐CO2 emission (N2O and CH4, measured in CO2eq) reduction, especially in the ...

US Consumer Appetite for Climate Claims on Beef Products: Does Country‐of‐Origin Matter?

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beef cattle producers have been receiving pressure to reduce methane emissions from production. Beef products with varying climate claims have recently been introduced to the retail sector, stemming from various countries‐of‐origin. Using data from a US consumer survey, we find a subset of US consumers is willing to pay a premium for Lower ...
