摘要: We extend an earlier bioeconomic model of optimal duck harvest and wetland retention in the Prairie Pothole Region Western Canada to include cropping decisions. Instead a single state equation, has two equations representing population dynamics ducks amount wetlands. use estimate impact climate change on wetlands waterfowl, including direct effects as well land due biofuel policies aimed at mitigating change. The predicts that will reduce by 37–56% from historic levels. Land is expected between 35% 45% levels, whereas range reduction 2–11%, depending future scenario. This result indicates models neglect effect changes underestimate Further, loss geographically heterogeneous, with losses being largest Saskatchewan.
