Water pricing and markets: Principles, practices and proposals
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.Abstract The allocation of water across space and time is a key challenge of water governance, with demand and supply often not well matched over time and place. Best practice water pricing and markets may promote water conservation, yet their application is limited.

On some determinant and matrix inequalities with a geometrical flavour [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 In this paper we study some determinant inequalities and matrix inequalities which have a geometrical flavour. We first examine some inequalities which place work of Macbeath [13] in a more general setting and also relate to recent work of Gressman [8]. In particular, we establish optimisers for these determinant inequalities.

How do current and past mining activities affect water security, health, and economic opportunities?
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.Abstract This paper investigates the effect of mining activities on health care, income and water deprivations in Africa.

Are all meats substitutes? A basket‐and‐expenditure‐based approach
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the relationship among animal‐based meat and plant‐based meat alternatives (PBMAs) using a basket‐and‐expenditure‐based choice experiment. In particular, we examine whether animal‐based meat products are substitutes or complements with PBMAs.

A Prékopa-Leindler type inequality of the $L_p$ Brunn-Minkowski inequality [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In this paper, we prove a Pr\'ekopa-Leindler type inequality of the $L_p$ Brunn-Minkowski inequality. It extends an inequality proved by Das Gupta [8] and Klartag [16], and thus recovers the Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality. In addition, we prove a functional $L_p$ Minkowski inequality.
