요약This dissertation consists of three chapters. Each chapter studies the role of policy design in minimizing environmental damages within markets for living natural resources.Chapter one provides a theoretical framework for the design of incentives to internalize externalities produced from stocks of renewable natural resources, i.e. "stock-generated externalities." I show that, unlike typical environmental externality settings, when the stock of renewable natural capital held by a firm produces an externality, incentives that target outputs to production lead to levels of environmental quality that are no better than no policy in the long run. By contrast, incentives that target the stock more directly can lead to a level the socially optimal level of environmental quality. I calibrate the model using scientific and industry parameters of Eastern oyster (C. virginica) cultivation in the Chesapeake Bay, which provides ecosystem services in the form of water filtration.Chapter two studies conservation leakages associated with the unilateral regulation of transboundary resources. We focus on a series of closures between 2001-2004 in the West Coast swordfish (X. gladius) fishery enacted to protect vulnerable and endangered sea turtles, in accordance with the Endangered Species Act. We find evidence of substitution by consumers between domestic swordfish and less regulated swordfish imports, suggesting a potential transfer effect. We predict the total quantity of imports attributable to a shock in domestic shallow-set longline landings, then provide back-of-the-envelope sea turtle bycatch calculations globally and for a domestic counterfactual. We predict that an additional 23.620 incidental turtle takes occurred globally as a result of the closure, which is within the predicted range had the closure not occurred (17.930-35.639 turtles domestically). The results suggest that the closure, which was intended to conserve global sea turtle populations, did not meet its regulatory objective.Chapter three evaluates the direction of green innovation and adoption in the absence of directed incentives. We utilize an exogenous shock to U.S. organic food demand in 2006 to study the change in composition of toxic versus non-toxic pesticide products, otherwise known as biopesticides, and subsequent adoption behavior by CA farmers. While biopesticides increased as a proportion of all pesticides post-shock, the majority of the increase was comprised of generics. This suggests a stagnation in pest-protective efficacy of the product pool, and may have been driven by the structure of the EPA pesticide approval process. While the product pool stagnated in efficacy, we find evidence of increased biopesticide adoption and lower toxicity of pesticides used by CA farmers. The increase in green technology adoption was likely due to higher returns to cleaner farming practices rather than the productivity of the input pool.

■520    ▼aThis  dissertation  consists  of  three  chapters.  Each  chapter  studies  the  role  of  policy  design  in  minimizing  environmental  damages  within  markets  for  living  natural  resources.Chapter  one  provides  a  theoretical  framework  for  the  design  of  incentives  to  internalize  externalities  produced  from  stocks  of  renewable  natural  resources,  i.e.  "stock-generated  externalities."  I  show  that,  unlike  typical  environmental  externality  settings,  when  the  stock  of  renewable  natural  capital  held  by  a  firm  produces  an  externality,  incentives  that  target  outputs  to  production  lead  to  levels  of  environmental  quality  that  are  no  better  than  no  policy  in  the  long  run.  By  contrast,  incentives  that  target  the  stock  more  directly  can  lead  to  a  level  the  socially  optimal  level  of  environmental  quality.  I  calibrate  the  model  using  scientific  and  industry  parameters  of  Eastern  oyster  (C.  virginica)  cultivation  in  the  Chesapeake  Bay,  which  provides  ecosystem  services  in  the  form  of  water  filtration.Chapter  two  studies  conservation  leakages  associated  with  the  unilateral  regulation  of  transboundary  resources.  We  focus  on  a  series  of  closures  between  2001-2004  in  the  West  Coast  swordfish  (X.  gladius)  fishery  enacted  to  protect  vulnerable  and  endangered  sea  turtles,  in  accordance  with  the  Endangered  Species  Act.  We  find  evidence  of  substitution  by  consumers  between  domestic  swordfish  and  less  regulated  swordfish  imports,  suggesting  a  potential  transfer  effect.  We  predict  the  total  quantity  of  imports  attributable  to  a  shock  in  domestic  shallow-set  longline  landings,  then  provide  back-of-the-envelope  sea  turtle  bycatch  calculations  globally  and  for  a  domestic  counterfactual.  We  predict  that  an  additional  23.620  incidental  turtle  takes  occurred  globally  as  a  result  of  the  closure,  which  is  within  the  predicted  range  had  the  closure  not  occurred  (17.930-35.639  turtles  domestically).  The  results  suggest  that  the  closure,  which  was  intended  to  conserve  global  sea  turtle  populations,  did  not  meet  its  regulatory  objective.Chapter  three  evaluates  the  direction  of  green  innovation  and  adoption  in  the  absence  of  directed  incentives.  We  utilize  an  exogenous  shock  to  U.S.  organic  food  demand  in  2006  to  study  the  change  in  composition  of  toxic  versus  non-toxic  pesticide  products,  otherwise  known  as  biopesticides,  and  subsequent  adoption  behavior  by  CA  farmers.  While  biopesticides  increased  as  a  proportion  of  all  pesticides  post-shock,  the  majority  of  the  increase  was  comprised  of  generics.  This  suggests  a  stagnation  in  pest-protective  efficacy  of  the  product  pool,  and  may  have  been  driven  by  the  structure  of  the  EPA  pesticide  approval  process.  While  the  product  pool  stagnated  in  efficacy,  we  find  evidence  of  increased  biopesticide  adoption  and  lower  toxicity  of  pesticides  used  by  CA  farmers.  The  increase  in  green  technology  adoption  was  likely  due  to  higher  returns  to  cleaner  farming  practices  rather  than  the  productivity  of  the  input  pool.
