Coastal Groundwater Management with Nearshore Resource Interactions

摘要: This paper develops a regional hydrologic-ecologic-economic model of groundwater use and nearshore ecosystem. Particularly, we coastal management its effects on discharge, water quality, marine biota (e.g., indigenous algae). We show that incorporating the external resources increases optimal steady-state head level. Numerical simulations are illustrated using data from Kuki’o region island Hawaii. Two different approaches for resource examined. find including algae’s market value directly in objective function calls lower, albeit slightly extraction rate all periods. If minimum constraint is placed stock keystone species, greater conservation may be indicated. The also results non-monotonic paths extraction, level, price solution.
