요약This dissertation investigates how water markets can be better designed to address the growing gap between global freshwater supply and demand. As climate change increases supply volatility and exacerbates scarcity, I examine why water markets remain underutilized and propose policy interventions to improve their performance. The first chapter develops a conceptual framework and advocates for structural reforms to water property rights and market institutions. The final two chapters address specific design questions raised in the opening chapter.In the first chapter, Market Design for Surface Water joint with Paul Milgrom, we discuss how many proposed surface water transfers undergo a series of regulatory reviews designed to mitigate hydrological and economic externalities. While these reviews help limit externalities, they impose substantial transaction costs that also limit trade. To promote a well-functioning market for surface water in California, we describe how a new kind of water right and related regulatory practices can balance the trade-off between externalities and transaction costs, and how a Water Incentive Auction can incentivize a sufficient number of current rights holders to swap their old rights for the new ones. The Water Incentive Auction adapts lessons learned from the US government's successful Broadcast Incentive Auction. This first chapter identifies the problem of hydrological and economic externalities, which the next two chapters respectively characterize and analyze in two of the most storied water markets in the world.The second chapter, Trade Frictions in Surface Water Markets, studies the barriers to water trade in California's surface water market. Despite significant price disparities between users, less than 5% of surface water is traded annually. Commonly cited frictions include incomplete property rights, costly management of externalities, and infrastructural constraints. I build and estimate a model of California's water market to decompose these frictions and simulate counterfactuals. My model features agricultural production, urban demand, hydrological externalities, and bilateral transaction costs. I find that incomplete property rights and constraints on an important bottleneck in the system represent significant sources of friction. Despite qualitative concern about the regulatory burden of managing externalities, this friction is relatively modest. I estimate that constructing new infrastructure coupled with streamlining water rights management would quadruple trade volume, increase agricultural profits by 10%, and increase environmental water supply. While these interventions reduce misallocation amongst farmers, they do not significantly benefit urban buyers.Finally, the third chapter, Local Economic Spillovers from Water Trade joint with Zane Kashner, concludes the dissertation by estimating how permanent changes in the amount of water available for productive uses affect local communities. Concerns about negative impacts on local economies that sell water have driven repugnance toward water market liberalization and curtailed efforts to promote market re-allocation-a powerful policy tool to adapt to increasing water scarcity. This paper uses the liberalization of water markets in Australia's Murray-Darling Basin in 2007 to investigate the effects of the re-allocation of water on local economies and residents' welfare. We exploit differences in endowments of soil productivity to instrument for post-reform changes in water usage to measure their effect on wages, home prices, and populations.
