Climate Change Agricultural Comparative Advantage and the US Trade Balance
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Current science indicates that warming and elevated atmospheric CO2 will have ambiguous results for crop productivity depending on crop type and geographic location, whereas increased heat stress makes livestock and human labor less productive.

Livestock Tango: U.S. and Latin America Dance Together, but Who Will Lead?
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the competitiveness between Latin American and U.S. livestock and meat sectors. We employ a computable general equilibrium modeling framework to evaluate two scenarios: coordinated improvements in Latin American productivity, transport efficiency, and market access (Scenario I), and the minimum productivity gains required ...

Markets Mitigate Land‐Use Competition From Energy Crops and Increase Farm Revenues
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Meeting the US Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand Challenge target of 35 billion gal annually by 2050 will require an estimated 380 million–700 million dry tons of agricultural biomass feedstock. This study evaluates the implications of large‐scale biomass production for land use, crop production, and market outcomes under mature market ...

The Land-Sea Warming Contrast as the Driver of Tropical Sea Level Pressure Changes [PDF]
, 2012 In this presentation we address the causes of the large-scale tropical sea level pressure (SLP) changes during climate change. The analysis we present is based on climate change model simulations, observed trends and the seasonal cycle.
