While environmental and human health and safety concerns often dominate stakeholder engagement programmes and public conversations about uranium operations, less public discussion and analytical research are typically devoted to the socio-economic aspects. This was the basis for this report. Through an examination of case studies from several countries the aim is to clarify how the numerous activities related to uranium mining affect various aspects of socio-economic development – including employment, supply chain investments, exports, taxes and royalties, innovation, infrastructure, education and medical care.

The combination of the two involved an amended plan for water management adopted by Special Improvement District No. 1 of the Rio Grande Water Conservation District (Subdistrict). Several parties objected to the approval of the Subdistrict's plan for ground water management. After two trials, the trial court determined the Plan to be "conceptually compatible" with the legal requirements of ground water management plans and the intent of the legislature in enacting SB 04-222. Among a series of findings, it found that (1) the Plan properly sought to stabilize the storage level of the unconfined aquifer at a "sustainable" level; and (2) the strategies proposed to meet that goal were reasonable and supported by the evidence. However, the trial court sent the Plan back to the Subdistrict board of managers and District board of directors for "further consideration and amendment because it lack[ed] detail, grant[ed] discretion with no guidance, fail[ed] to acknowledge the replacement of injurious depletions as a priority, and simply is not a 'comprehensive and detailed plan'" as required by statute. Upon review, the Supreme Court found that the Plan as approved and decreed, adequately addressed the replacement of well depletions that injure adjudicated senior surface water rights, along with restoring and maintaining sustainable aquifer levels in accordance with the applicable statutes. "The Subdistrict bears the burden of going forward and the burden of proof to demonstrate that annual replacement plans prevent material injury to adjudicated senior surface water rights caused by ongoing and past well depletions that have future impact." The Court affirmed the water court and Alamosa County District Court's decisions.}, langid = {english}, organization = {Justia Law}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/NUUABFQD/10sa224.html} } @online{2024aa, title = {Decommissioning of {{U}}.{{S}}. {{Uranium Production Facilities}} from {{U}}.{{S}}. {{Reactors}}}, date = {2024-01-26}, url = {https://www.eia.gov/nuclear/decommission/}, urldate = {2024-01-26} } @online{2024ab, title = {A Case Study of Rural Employment in {{Wyoming}}'s Uranium Sector -

Since fossil fuels must be replaced in the energy sector to combat climate change, hydrogen may be the best possible low-emitting alternative energy source. Currently, three energy sources are used worldwide to produce hydrogen: renewable, nuclear, and fossil fuels. Using a bibliometric approach, this study examines how nuclear energy or power has been used to produce hydrogen over the past 20 years. Biblioshiny, a package in R-studio, and VOSviewer were the tools used for the analysis. With an annual growth rate of 7.81\%, research on the topic of study has advanced significantly over the years. Over the years, 999 individuals have contributed to the research, using a total of 668 keywords for their studies. Countries with operational nuclear power plants are more interested in nuclear hydrogen production research, potentially due to their quest to diversify their energy use compared to those planning to add nuclear energy. Similarly, studies on how to reduce impact of accidents at such facilities have gained interest since 2010–2023, indicating a growing interest in how to reduce such incidences.

Conclusions:{$\quad$}Radon is an established human lung carcinogen based on human epidemiological data supported by experimental evidence of mutagenesis studies in cell culture and laboratory animals. Extrapolation from cohort studies on miners suggested that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer death after tobacco smoke. The majority of studies on the relationship between radon and other types of cancers showed weak or no association. Low levels of radon can be found in drinking water; however, radon released during water usage adds small quantities to indoor radon concentration. Studies showed that the risk of stomach cancer and other gastrointestinal malignancies from radon in drinking water is small. Studies of the genetic and cytogenetic effects of indoor radon yielded equivocal results; while radon exposure in miners induces gene mutations and chromosomal aberrations. Numerous in vitro cytogenetic studies demonstrated that radon induces different types of genetic and cytogenetic damage that is likely to play a role in radon lung carcinogenesis.}, langid = {eng ; jpn}, keywords = {Animals,Human beings,Leukemia,Radon} } @article{allen2023, title = {Market-Oriented Solutions for Groundwater Commons through Collective-Action}, author = {Allen, Jonah J. and family=Link to external site, given=this, prefix=link will open in a new window, useprefix=false and Smith, Steven M. and family=Link to external site, given=this, prefix=link will open in a new window, useprefix=false}, date = {2023-04}, journaltitle = {Environmental Research Letters}, volume = {18}, number = {4}, pages = {045006}, publisher = {IOP Publishing}, location = {Bristol, United Kingdom}, doi = {10.1088/1748-9326/acc8ec}, url = {https://www.proquest.com/docview/2800878826/abstract/93FD12703F904731PQ/1}, urldate = {2023-07-07}, abstract = {Groundwater scarcity poses threats to communities across the globe, and effectively managing those challenges requires designing policy that achieves institutional fit.

This result is driven by the variability of the futures price about the spot price, as captured by the oil futures spread. This variability can be explained by the marginal convenience yield of oil inventories. Using a two-country, multi-period general equilibrium model of the spot and futures markets for crude oil we show that increased uncertainty about future oil supply shortfalls under plausible assumptions causes the spread to decline. Increased uncertainty also causes precautionary demand for oil to increase, resulting in an immediate increase in the real spot price. Thus the negative of the oil futures spread may be viewed as an indicator of fluctuations in the price of crude oil driven by precautionary demand. An empirical analysis of this indicator provides evidence of how shifts in the uncertainty about future oil supply shortfalls affect the real spot price of crude oil.

Uranium-based atomic energy generation has an enormous potential to efficiently supply energy demand at the cost of high environmental impact on water bodies. Therefore, estimating the environmental impacts of the uranium recovery systems from desalination waste is a necessity. This study assessed the environmental impact of uranium recovery method from brine via AF1 and PAN-AO amidoximated adsorbents and compared them with the conventional uranium mining methods. As a life-cycle impact assessment method International Reference Life Cycle Data System was conducted with 16 impact categories considering cradle to gate analysis. The results for AF1, PAN-AO and all conventional uranium extraction methods showed that recovery of uranium in the long run is more effective than the conventional procedures. The sensitivity analysis results reveal that hydroxylamine, hazardous waste disposal are the most influential parameters during the uranium recovery via adsorbent methods. Comparative analysis between energy sources used in adsorbent recovery processes indicated that solar energy has the lowest environmental impacts among all kinds of energy scenarios. This study concluded that an alternative sustainable industrial process to obtain uranium is actually applicable.

By relying on comparative institutional analysis, we compare the modes’ performance characteristics in terms of short-term and long-term coordination, preparedness for shocks, and responsiveness to shocks.

Our suggested policy response is to introduce an independent Nuclear Safety Commission, and an Independent System Operator to coordinate buyers and sellers on publicly owned transmission grids. Without an independent safety regulator, or a very well established ‘‘safety culture,’’ profitmaximizing behavior by an entrenched electricity monopoly will not necessarily lead to a social optimum with regard to nuclear power plant safety.

Weighting subjects by the inverse probability of treatment received creates a synthetic sample in which treatment assignment is independent of measured baseline covariates. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) using the propensity score allows one to obtain unbiased estimates of average treatment effects. However, these estimates are only valid if there are no residual systematic differences in observed baseline characteristics between treated and control subjects in the sample weighted by the estimated inverse probability of treatment. We report on a systematic literature review, in which we found that the use of IPTW has increased rapidly in recent years, but that in the most recent year, a majority of studies did not formally examine whether weighting balanced measured covariates between treatment groups. We then proceed to describe a suite of quantitative and qualitative methods that allow one to assess whether measured baseline covariates are balanced between treatment groups in the weighted sample. The quantitative methods use the weighted standardized difference to compare means, prevalences, higher-order moments, and interactions. The qualitative methods employ graphical methods to compare the distribution of continuous baseline covariates between treated and control subjects in the weighted sample. Finally, we illustrate the application of these methods in an empirical case study.

To avoid this, users can assign groundwater rights: a cap is set on the volume of groundwater that can be pumped annually, and rights are allocated among users. Although this process restricts pumping, it also improves long-term resource availability, grants a fungible asset that can be traded, and reduces uncertainty for urban developers. We investigate the effect on land values by exploiting a plausibly exogenous discontinuity in the definition of rights in the Mojave groundwater basin in California. Because both the long-term stream of agricultural rents and the value of tradable permits are capitalized into land value, spatial regression discontinuity designs identify the difference between the value of interior parcels with water rights and those of free riders on the exterior, who can drain from the regulated area with no restrictions. We find that the value of rights outweighs gains realized by free riders and that property rights increase land value by half. The large gains estimated here support the idea that the allocation of rights may be instrumental in convincing otherwise recalcitrant users to accept restrictions.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/CXMPCSLY/Ayres and Meng - 2018 - The Economic Value of Secure Water Landowner Retu.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/XP9IG6A7/Ayres and Meng - 2018 - The Economic Value of Secure Water Landowner Retu.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/7823QY32/19113484.html} } @article{ayres2018-trans-cost, title = {How Transaction Costs Obstruct Collective Action: {{The}} Case of {{California}}'s Groundwater}, shorttitle = {How Transaction Costs Obstruct Collective Action}, author = {Ayres, Andrew B. and Edwards, Eric C. and Libecap, Gary D.}, date = {2018-09-01}, journaltitle = {Journal of Environmental Economics and Management}, shortjournal = {Journal of Environmental Economics and Management}, volume = {91}, pages = {46--65}, issn = {0095-0696}, doi = {10.1016/j.jeem.2018.07.001}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0095069617305478}, urldate = {2021-02-27}, abstract = {Collective action to remedy the losses of open access to common-pool resources often is late and incomplete, extending rent dissipation.

The assessment is performed in terms of economic impacts and political feasibility. Model-based scenarios considering different price and quantity levels are analyzed on Balmorel-MX, a cost optimization bottom-up model of the Mexican electricity system. The political feasibility is evaluated using an online survey and interviews with representatives of relevant stakeholder groups. The assessment suggests that an ETS is the most appropriate instrument for the Mexican case. We recommend to set the cap as 31\% abatement in relation to a baseline, which is suggested to be 102 MtCO2 by 2030, given the business-as-usual baseline used as reference by the Mexican government (202 MtCO2) is found to leave cost-effective abatement potential untapped. An emission trading system with such design has higher costefficiency and lower distributional effects than a carbon tax at equivalent ambition level (15 USD/tCO2). The political feasibility analysis confirms the assessment, as it is in line with the priorities of the stakeholder groups, allows earmarking carbon revenue and avoids exempting natural gas from carbon pricing.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/44L7SPX6/Barragán-Beaud et al. - 2018 - Carbon tax or emissions trading An analysis of ec.pdf} } @book{bartis2005, title = {Oil Shale Development in the {{United States}}: Prospects and Policy Issues}, shorttitle = {Oil Shale Development in the {{United States}}}, editor = {Bartis, James T.}, date = {2005}, publisher = {RAND}, location = {Santa Monica, Calif}, isbn = {978-0-8330-3848-7}, langid = {english}, pagetotal = {68}, keywords = {Oil-shale industry,Oil-shales,United States}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/G9GLYQRP/Bartis - 2005 - Oil shale development in the United States prospe.pdf} } @letter{bartlett2020, type = {Letter}, title = {Global {{Laser Enrichment}} - {{Acceptance Review Of License Termination Request For Special Nuclear Material}}}, author = {Bartlett, Matthew}, date = {2020-04-29}, langid = {english} } @article{basin1933, title = {Board of Land Commissioners Right of {{Way}} Agreement}, author = {Basin, Groundwater Appropriators of the South Platte River and Inc.

Previous regulation under the 1977 CAAA had effectively required the use of scrubbers, but only by new power plants. The 1990 CAAA forced scrubbers to compete with other SO2 abatement options but also implemented emissions regulations for all power plants, thereby increasing the number of possible customers. While market-based incentives are widely believed to have lowered control costs, a secondary benefit would exist if this increased competition and potential demand reduced scrubbing costs by generating advancements in scrubber technology. To investigate this, we separate scrubbers by the regulatory regime in place when they were installed. A hedonic model is used to estimate the effect of changing regulatory regimes on the real capital (the purchase price) and operating costs of scrubbers. We find that while scrubbers installed under the 1990 CAAA are cheaper to purchase and operate than those installed under any other regulatory regime, these cost reductions seem to be a one-time drop rather than a continual decline.}, langid = {english} } @article{bennett1998, title = {The Interstate River Compact: {{Incentives}} for Noncompliance}, shorttitle = {The Interstate River Compact}, author = {Bennett, Lynne Lewis and Howe, Charles W.}, date = {1998}, journaltitle = {Water resources research}, volume = {34}, number = {3}, pages = {485--495}, issn = {0043-1397}, doi = {10.1029/97WR03384}, abstract = {Twenty‐one western United States rivers are governed by interstate compacts.

Theoretical arguments and empirical evidence presented in this paper suggest that upper basin states governed by interstate compacts with percentage delivery rules are more likely to comply with compact requirements than states whose rivers are governed by fixed delivery rules. Evidence indicates that both the frequency and level of noncompliance tend to be larger under a fixed allocation rule. Under such a rule the upper basin state bears a greater share of a shortage and experiences greater variability so it would have a greater incentive to cheat. A comparative study of the South Platte and La Plata Rivers is consistent with this hypothesis.

Uranium milling and surface and in situ mining continued in Karnes County until the early 1990s. Remediation of uranium tailings ponds was completed in the 1990s. There were three mills and over 40 mines operating in Karnes County over these years and potential exposure to the population was from possible environmental releases into the air and ground water. From time to time concerns have been raised in Karnes County about potential increased cancer risk from these uranium mining and milling activities. To evaluate the possibility of increased cancer deaths associated with these uranium operations, a mortality survey was conducted. The numbers and rates of cancer deaths were determined for Karnes County and for comparison for four 'control' counties in the same region with similar age, race, urbanisation and socioeconomic distributions reported in the 1990 US Census. Comparisons were also made with US and Texas general population rates. Following similar methods to those used by the National Cancer Institute, standardised mortality ratios (SMRs) were computed as the ratio of observed numbers of cancers in the study and control counties compared to the expected number derived from general population rates for the United States. Relative risks (RRs) were computed as the ratios of the SMRs for the study and the control counties. Overall, 1223 cancer deaths occurred in the population residing in Karnes County from 1950 to 2001 compared with 1392 expected based on general population rates for the US. There were 3857 cancer deaths in the four control counties during the same 52 year period compared with 4389 expected. There was no difference between the total cancer mortality rates in Karnes County and those in the control counties (RR = 1.0; 95\% confidence interval 0.9-1.1). There were no significant increases in Karnes County for any cancer when comparisons were made with either the US population, the State of Texas or the control counties. In particular, deaths due to cancers of the lung, bone, liver and kidney were not more frequent in Karnes County than in the control counties. These are the cancers of a priori interest given that uranium might be expected to concentrate more in these tissues than in others. Further, any radium intake would deposit primarily in the bone and radon progeny primarily in the lung. Deaths from all cancers combined also were not increased in Karnes County and the RRs of cancer mortality in Karnes County before and in the early years of operations (1950-64), shortly after the uranium activities began (1965-79) and in two later time periods (1980-89, 1990-2001) were similar, 1.0, 0.9, 1.1 and 1.0, respectively.

To evaluate the possible impact of these activities on the health of communities living on the Colorado Plateau, mortality rates between 1950 and 2000 among Montrose County residents were compared to rates among residents in five similar counties in Colorado. Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) were computed as the ratio of observed numbers of deaths in Montrose County to the expected numbers of deaths based on mortality rates in the general populations of Colorado and the United States. Relative risks (RRs) were computed as the ratio of the SMRs for Montrose County to the SMRs for the five comparison counties.

Lung cancer among females was decreased (RR = 0.83; 95\% CI 0.67-1.02). The absence of elevated mortality rates of cancer in Montrose County over a period of 51 years suggests that the historical milling and mining operations did not adversely affect the health of Montrose County residents. Although descriptive correlation analyses such as this preclude definitive causal inferences, the increased lung cancer mortality seen among males but not females is most likely due to prior occupational exposure to radon and cigarette smoking among underground miners residing in Montrose County, consistent with previous cohort studies of Colorado miners and of residents of the town of Uravan in Montrose County.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Adult,Aged,Aged 80 and over,Body Burden,Colorado,Environmental Exposure,Female,Geography,Humans,Incidence,Male,Metallurgy,Middle Aged,Mining,Neoplasms Radiation-Induced,Radiation Monitoring,Risk Assessment,Risk Factors,Survival Rate,Uranium,Vanadium} } @article{boice2008, title = {A Cohort Study of Uranium Millers and Miners of {{Grants}}, {{New Mexico}}, 1979-2005}, author = {Boice, John D. and Cohen, Sarah S. and Mumma, Michael T. and Chadda, Bandana and Blot, William J.}, date = {2008-09}, journaltitle = {Journal of Radiological Protection: Official Journal of the Society for Radiological Protection}, shortjournal = {J Radiol Prot}, volume = {28}, number = {3}, eprint = {18714128}, eprinttype = {pmid}, pages = {303--325}, issn = {0952-4746}, doi = {10.1088/0952-4746/28/3/002}, abstract = {A cohort mortality study of workers engaged in uranium milling and mining activities near Grants, New Mexico, during the period from 1955 to 1990 was conducted.

The present study evaluates cancer mortality during 1950-2004 and cancer incidence during 1982-2004 among county residents. Standardized mortality (SMR) and incidence (SIR) ratios and 95\% confidence intervals (CI) were computed, with observed numbers of cancer deaths and cases compared to expected values based on New Mexico cancer rates. The total numbers of cancer deaths and incident cancers were close to that expected (SMR 1.04, 95\% CI 1.01-1.07; SIR 0.97, 95\% CI 0.92-1.02). Lung cancer mortality and incidence were significantly increased among men (SMR 1.11, 95\% CI 1.02-1.21; SIR 1.40, 95\% CI 1.18-1.64) but not women (SMR 0.97, 95\% CI 0.85-1.10; SIR 1.01, 95\% CI 0.78-1.29). Similarly, among the population of the three census tracts near the Grants Uranium Mill, lung cancer mortality was significantly elevated among men (SMR 1.57; 95\% CI 1.21-1.99) but not women (SMR 1.12; 95\% CI 0.75-1.61).

Although etiological inferences cannot be drawn from these ecological data, the excesses of lung cancer among men seem likely to be due to previously reported risks among underground miners from exposure to radon gas and its decay products. Smoking, socioeconomic factors or ethnicity may also have contributed to the lung cancer excesses observed in our study. The stomach cancer increase was highest before the uranium mill began operation and then decreased to normal levels.

Regulatory measurements performed at a Wyoming in situ uranium mine were collected and analysed to ascertain the efficacy of remediation and potential long term environmental impact. Based on the measurements, groundwater sweeping followed by reverse osmosis (RO) treatment proved to be a highly efficient method of remediation. However, injection of a reductant in the form of H2S after groundwater sweeping and RO did not further reduce the aqueous concentration of U, Mn, or Fe. Low concentrations of target species at monitoring wells outside the mined area appear to indicate that in the long term, natural attenuation is likely to play a major role at reductively immobilizing residual (after remediation) concentrations of U(VI) thus preventing it from moving outside the mined area.

We then derive the efficient estimator robust to treatment effect heterogeneity for this setting, show that it has a particularly intuitive "imputation" form when treatment-effect heterogeneity is unrestricted, characterize its asymptotic behavior, provide tools for inference, and illustrate its attractive properties in simulations.

Using a simulation model which couples the hydrology of a conjunctive stream aquifer system to a behavioral-economic model which incorporates farmer behavior in such a system, we have investigated the economics of an area patterned after a reach of the South Platte Valley in Colorado. The results suggest that under current economic conditions the most reasonable groundwater pumping capacity is a total capacity capable of irrigating the available acreage with groundwater. Installing sufficient well capacity to irrigate all available acreage has two benefits: (1) this capacity maximizes the expected net benefits and (2) this capacity also minimizes the variation in annual income: it reduces the variance to essentially zero.

Comparison of the institutional characteristics of each market reveals that Colorado's market is well developed, with many trades and rising prices that respond to market conditions, and New Mexico's market is developing well, with lower prices, but showing some response to supply and demand factors.

The high assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) fuel (5–20 w/o 235U) is introduced to increase the plant capacity factor, which thereby decrease fuel supply costs and reduce the LCOE.

This paper aims to shed light on these issues and address how they may affect the overall reactor design by using HALEU fuels in these reactors. This paper first discusses the notable effects on a reactor design with higher enrichment, then analyzes a SMR case study based on the NuScale’s 160 MWth SMR design.

This type of aquifer system is called a tributary aquifer and can affect flows of adjacent streams. These accretions occur when slowly moving groundwater enters the bottom or side slopes of a stream, providing base flow. In this situation, groundwater becomes surface water. Groundwater that is hydraulically connected to surface water in this manner is called tributary groundwater. Colorado state law requires all water users--of both surface and tributary groundwater--to follow a strict water-right priority system of "first in time, first in right." This Doctrine of Prior Appropriation, adopted in Colorado in 1876, is rigidly followed today. Since 2003, thousands of tributary groundwater irrigation wells have been curtailed from pumping (legally shut off) due to pumping depletions that reduce stream flow. The impacts to these groundwater users have been serious. Approximately 2,000 wells have been curtailed and will never pump again, and tens of thousands of acres of productive agricultural lands have been reverted to dryland crops or weeds. Surface and tributary groundwater use conflicts are inevitable in locations where rigid water-allocation systems are followed. Nobel Prize winner Eleanor Ostrom points out that common-pool resource management requires collective-choice arrangements if resource users--in this case, surface water and groundwater users--are to develop a stable management plan. This article will show that the Colorado Constitution prohibits such an arrangement and is the reason thousands of tributary groundwater wells have been permanently shut off in the state. By contrast, other states and regions of the world may be able to avoid drastic well curtailments if state or federal laws allow for common-pool resource management.

Restoration is necessary in order to reduce the amounts of undesired chemical constituents left in solution after mining operations have ceased, and thus return the groundwater to a quality consistent with pre-mining use and potential use. Various restoration strategies have been proposed and are discussed. Of interest are the hydrologic, environmental, social, and economic impacts of these restoration alternatives. Much of the discussion concerning groundwater restoration is based on the use of an ammonium carbonate-bicarbonate leach solution in the mining process. This has been the principal leach solution used during the early period of mining in South Texas. Recently, because of apparent difficulties in restoring ammonium to proposed or required levels, many of the companies have changed to the use of other leach solutions. Because little is known about restoration with these other leach solutions they have not been specifically addressed in this report. Likewise, we have not addressed the question of the fate of heavy metals. Following a summary of the development of South Texas in-situ mining in Chapter Two, Chapter Three describes the surface and groundwater resources of the uranium mining district. Chapter Four addresses the economics of water use, and Chapter Five is concerned with regulation of the in-situ uranium industry in Texas.

Reconstructing head measurements from InSAR in agricultural regions can be difficult, as InSAR phase data are often decorrelated due to vegetation growth. Analysis of 17 L‐band ALOS PALSAR scenes, acquired between January 2007 and March 2011, demonstrates that comprehensive InSAR deformation measurements can be recovered over the vegetated groundwater basin with an improved processing strategy. Local skeletal storage coefficients and time delays between the head change and deformation are estimated through a joint InSAR‐well data analysis. InSAR subsidence estimates are transformed to head changes with finer temporal and spatial resolution than is possible using existing well records alone. Both InSAR and well data suggest that little long‐term water‐storage loss occurred in the SLV over the study period and that inelastic compaction was negligible. The seasonal head variations derived from InSAR are consistent with the existing well data at most locations where confined aquifer pumping activity dominates. Our results demonstrate the advantages of InSAR measurements for basin‐wide characterization of aquifer storage properties and groundwater levels over agricultural regions. , Key Points: InSAR can be used to measure head levels and storage properties in confined aquifers The achieved temporal and spatial resolution is much finer than that of existing well data Persistent scatterer techniques can be employed to correct vegetation decorrelation artifacts}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/N6I8WY95/Chen et al. - 2016 - Confined aquifer head measurements and storage pro.pdf} } @article{chen2017, title = {Forecast of the Demand and Supply Plan of {{China}}’s Uranium Resources till 2030}, author = {Chen, Shan and Xing, Wanli and Du, Xueming}, date = {2017-05-28}, journaltitle = {International Journal of Green Energy}, volume = {14}, number = {7}, pages = {638--649}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, issn = {1543-5075}, doi = {10.1080/15435075.2017.1313741}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1080/15435075.2017.1313741}, urldate = {2024-02-07}, abstract = {This paper’s purpose is to predict China’s uranium resources demand from 2016 to 2030 based on experimental modeling.

China's foreign dependence on uranium will be greater than for oil, and the situation will become extremely serious. Therefore, we put forward several suggestions to ensure the supply of China's uranium resources: (1) strengthening mineral exploration and increasing domestic production, (2) actively operating the "going out" strategy, (3) enhancing the enterprise competition ability, and (4) establishing uranium resource reserves. By these means, China could efficiently guarantee the domestic uranium resource security and respond to the competition of India's uranium resources demand increased.}, issue = {7}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Business,China,demand forecast,Demand forecasting,electrical engineering electronic engineering information engineering,Endowment,energy,engineering and technology,Natural resource economics,Nuclear power,Production (economics),Resource (biology),resources security,Supply and demand,Uranium,uranium resources} } @article{chen2017b, title = {Investment and Operating Choice: {{Oil}} and Natural Gas Futures Prices and Drilling Activity}, shorttitle = {Investment and Operating Choice}, author = {Chen, Fan and Linn, Scott C.}, date = {2017-08-01}, journaltitle = {Energy Economics}, shortjournal = {Energy Economics}, volume = {66}, pages = {54--68}, issn = {0140-9883}, doi = {10.1016/j.eneco.2017.05.012}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S014098831730155X}, urldate = {2022-10-11}, abstract = {We present evidence that changes in oil and natural gas field investment measured by drilling rig use respond positively to changes in the futures prices of oil and natural gas, consistent with predictions based upon value-maximizing behavior.

In recognition of hydraulic connectivity between surface and groundwater resources, many states in the western United States have begun to develop systems of conjunctive administration in which property rights for surface water and groundwater are jointly managed. Implementing conjunctive administration requires an understanding of when and where surface and groundwater resources are connected. This article analyzes how decisions about water use and changes in irrigation technology influence connectivity across space and time, generating a challenge for policy instrument design. I develop and estimate an econometric model that reflects the simultaneity in surface and groundwater levels that arises due to the two-way flow of water in a hydraulically connected system. The model also traces the effect of changes in irrigation technology on consumptive water use and return flows, and the consequences for changes in water availability. Estimation results using a panel dataset for the Eastern Snake River Plain of Idaho from 1960 to 2011 indicate that connectivity between surface and groundwater resources has decreased over time due to declining groundwater levels. Declining groundwater levels are attributable not only to groundwater pumping, but also to a widespread shift from flood to sprinkler irrigation. This transition in irrigation technology has conserved surface water but depleted groundwater by reducing aquifer recharge. As connectivity declines, reducing groundwater pumping to augment surface water flows, a common approach to conjunctive administration, yields diminishing marginal benefits.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Analysis,aquifer,conjunctive management,Econometrics,Economics,Groundwater,Groundwater levels,hydraulic connectivity,Hydraulic control,Irrigation,irrigation technology,Management,Panels,Policies,Pumping,pumping effects,Pumping machinery,recharge,Studies,Surface water,United States,Water Underground} } @article{cody2015, title = {Emergence of {{Collective Action}} in a {{Groundwater Commons}}: {{Irrigators}} in the {{San Luis Valley}} of {{Colorado}}}, shorttitle = {Emergence of {{Collective Action}} in a {{Groundwater Commons}}}, author = {Cody, Kelsey and Smith, Steven and Cox, Michael and Andersson, Krister}, date = {2015-02-12}, journaltitle = {Society and Natural Resources}, shortjournal = {Society and Natural Resources}, doi = {10.1080/08941920.2014.970736}, abstract = {Under what conditions are irrigators able to develop adaptive governance arrangements?

This is particularly true in areas expected to become more arid such as the Southwestern United States, where restrictive water rights are strictly enforced. Adaptations to these dual climatic and legal challenges include user-selected rules. In particular, during water shortage self-governing irrigation systems often change water allocations between members and rotate water delivery. However, it is unclear how these rules interact with each other as configurations and with contextual factors, such as the degree of water scarcity. It is also unclear how these rules influence outcomes between irrigators closer to the water source and those farther from it. How might different configurations of rules interact with water availability to produce outcomes along an irrigation system's canal network? This study addresses this question by exploiting a natural experiment in water distribution and allocation rules during shortage among a stratified sample of 60 snowmelt dependent irrigation systems in the San Luis Valley of Colorado during a four-year drought period from 2011-2014. A key finding is that the combination of rotational delivery and flexible water allocations produces the most equal crop growth between irrigators at the head and tail of the irrigation system at all levels of water availability. The marginal productivity of water at the head and tail end of irrigation systems at all levels of water availability is also equalized under this configuration. These results suggest a greater likelihood of ongoing collective action, important for climate change adaptation. However, rotation with flexible allocations is outperformed by other configurations depending on context.

Maintaining and improving irrigation performance depends on institutions, the rules, norms, and strategies used to organize economic behavior. However, the influence of institutions on irrigation performance is ambiguous and context dependent, as the shortcomings of decades of “panaceas” have shown. Therefore, for the benefit of academics, policy-makers, water managers, and irrigators alike, this dissertation asks the question: how do rules interact with context – specifically, biophysical context, other rules, and cultural norms – to influence irrigation performance in self-governing irrigation systems under climate change? To answer this question, the following chapters investigate three essential institutional features of irrigation systems and other long-lived common pool resource regimes: de facto access rights, allocation and distribution rules, and monitoring rules. The empirical chapters use original data to investigate the Upper Rio Grande Basin of North America, where Spanish and American self-governing irrigation systems have been adapting snowmelt-driven irrigation to a high desert valley for over 350 and 150 years, respectively, and have recently faced signals of climate change. Following the Institutional Analysis and Development framework and Common Pool Resource theory, this dissertation develops three arguments. First, de facto Prior Appropriation water rights are a reliably strong influence on irrigation performance, but they significantly interact with biophysical context such that de facto water rights have little to no influence. Second, during water scarcity, rules for flexible water allocation and rotational water distribution interact with each other and with water availability to influence irrigation performance differently at different locations within an irrigation system, with implications for inequality and continued collective action. Third, historical selection pressures are associated with institutional and technological features of irrigation systems and internalized norms. These norms interact with monitoring rules to influence the amount and equality of crop production and can conflict with water allocation rules in ways that harm performance in scarcity. Collectively, these arguments highlight the importance of a contextual, diagnostic approach to policy change and the need for further investigation into self-governing irrigation systems under long-term and accelerating climate change.}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/BPMBXFHH/Cody - 2018 - INSTITUTIONS OF SELF-GOVERNING IRRIGATION SYSTEMS .pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/Q4UP48V5/Cody - 2018 - INSTITUTIONS OF SELF-GOVERNING IRRIGATION SYSTEMS .pdf} } @article{cody2019, title = {The Evolution of Norms and Their Influence on Performance among Self-Governing Irrigation Systems in the {{Southwestern United States}}}, author = {Cody, Kelsey}, date = {2019-04-25}, journaltitle = {International Journal of the Commons}, shortjournal = {Int J Commons}, volume = {13}, number = {1}, pages = {578}, issn = {1875-0281}, doi = {10.18352/ijc.910}, url = {https://www.thecommonsjournal.org/article/10.18352/ijc.910/}, urldate = {2024-02-06}, abstract = {Irrigation is important for global food supply and is vulnerable to climate change. Internalized cultural norms are important for the performance of Common Pool Resource (CPR) regimes such as irrigation systems, but much is unknown about the role of norms in shaping irrigation performance. This paper applies multi-level selection (MLS) theory and CPR theory to a stratified, semirandom sample of 71 irrigation systems of distinct cultural origins in the Upper Rio Grande Basin of the United States to test hypotheses related to the role of norms in irrigation system form and function. Results show that internalized norms of cooperation are strongly associated with the rules and technologies adopted by irrigators, the frequency of water use violations, average crop production, and the equality of crop production. Systems with internalized norms of cooperation have adopted rules and technologies which are associated with increased care for the commons, public goods, and higher equality between irrigators. Further, agents designated as monitors of CPR use have different effects depending on whether irrigators possess cooperative or competitive norms. Notably, the presence of monitors that enforce rules that are incongruent with norms is associated with increased water use violations and lower average crop production. These findings add weight to the growing body of work giving greater attention to cultural context when analyzing user-governed CPR regimes and climate resilience, and further illustrate the compatibility of MLS theory with other prevailing theories in CPR research.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/B3373H8Y/Cody - 2019 - The evolution of norms and their influence on perf.pdf} } @article{coglianese2017, title = {Anticipation, {{Tax Avoidance}}, and the {{Price Elasticity}} of {{Gasoline Demand}}}, author = {Coglianese, John and Davis, Lucas W. and Kilian, Lutz and Stock, James H.}, date = {2017}, journaltitle = {Journal of Applied Econometrics}, volume = {32}, number = {1}, pages = {1--15}, issn = {1099-1255}, doi = {10.1002/jae.2500}, url = {https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/jae.2500}, urldate = {2023-02-26}, abstract = {Least-squares estimates of the response of gasoline consumption to a change in the gasoline price are biased toward zero, given the endogeneity of gasoline prices.

Economists have argued that such constraints prohibit water from moving to its socially highest valued uses and hence, that the allocation of water under these restrictions is inefficient. On the other hand, if water rights associated with a certain parcel of farm real estate could be sold separately from the land in a perfectly competitive market, the allocation of water would be efficient. The past attempts to examine and compare the efficiency of water rights markets have been qualitative. This paper provides a quantitative basis for assessing the efficiency of a regional water rights market. In the absence of externalities and public goods problems, water rights markets, which are separate from land markets and in which arbitrage yields a competitive price system, may be termed efficient in allocating water. The questions of seperability and competitiveness are analyzed empirically by estimating the hedonic price function for farm real estate.

It begins with the study of the geology of an area followed by exploratory or wildcat drilling in promising areas. How much oil or gas is found or the supply of new reserves is a function of exploration, the geology of the area drilled along with a random component measuring the fickleness of mother nature in yielding up her treasures to mere mortals. Knowing how oil and gas prices affect this process (price elasticities) is valuable to those who are involved with this strategic industry. Economic theory suggests that the search for petroleum is affected by prices and can be characterized by functions representing geophysical activities and drilling while the finding of reserves can be characterized by some sort of discovery process. The earliest econometric approach to modeling oil and gas exploration, which yielded price elasticities, was to estimate the search process using a function for wildcat wells drilled (Ww). For example, the discovery process for oil was represented using two equations: a success rate equation \% of wells that are commercially successful (W/Ww) and an average oil reserve per successful well equation (O/W). Each of these three dependent variables were dependent on price and other relevant variables. The product of these three variables (Ww ∗W/Ww ∗O/W) yields the supply of oil reserves (O). In this paper we survey all U.S. exploration models for oil and gas that include wells drilled, share of successful wells, average reserves per well, or total reserve equations. We focus our survey on price elasticities to capture the effect of market price on the exploration process. Drilling equation results tend to be good with drilling strongly influenced by oil price and we suspect the long run drilling oil price elasticity to be greated than 1. It is much less clear how natural gas prices have affected drilling but their effect seems to be increasing. The most important issue in drilling equations besides including the correct economic variables is more work to clarify what geological variables provide the best forecasts. The econometric estimates for successful wells and average reserves per wells are much poorer and we would recommend more systematic work on discovery models to determine which perform the best.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/JV94JJCQ/Dahl and Duggan - 1998 - Survey of price elasticities from economic explora.pdf} } @article{dai2022, title = {An {{Assessment}} of the {{Impact}} of {{Natural Resource Price}} and {{Global Economic Policy Uncertainty}} on {{Financial Asset Performance}}: {{Evidence From Bitcoin}}}, shorttitle = {An {{Assessment}} of the {{Impact}} of {{Natural Resource Price}} and {{Global Economic Policy Uncertainty}} on {{Financial Asset Performance}}}, author = {Dai, Maoyu and Qamruzzaman, Md and Hamadelneel Adow, Anass}, date = {2022}, journaltitle = {Frontiers in environmental science}, volume = {10}, publisher = {Frontiers Media S.A}, issn = {2296-665X}, doi = {10.3389/fenvs.2022.897496}, abstract = {The aim of this study is to gauge the impact of global economic policy uncertainty and natural resource prices, that is, oil prices and gold prices, on Bitcoin returns by using monthly data spanning from May 2013 to December 2021. The study applies ARDL and nonlinear ARDL for evaluating the symmetric and asymmetric effects of Global Economic Uncertainty (GU), oil price (O), and natural gas price on Bitcoin volatility investigated by using the ARCH-GARCH-ERAGCH and non-granger causality test. ARDL model estimation establishes a long-run cointegration between GU, O, G, and Bitcoin. Moreover, GU and oil price exhibits a negative association with Bitcoin and positive influences running from gold price shock to Bitcoin in the long run. NARDL results ascertain the long-run asymmetric relations between GU, oil price, gold price (G), and Bitcoin return. Furthermore, GU’s asymmetric effect and positive shock in gold price negatively linked to Bitcoin return in the long run, whereas asymmetric shock in oil price and negative shocks in gold price established a positive linkage with Bitcoin. The results of ARCH effects disclose the volatility persistence in the variables. The causality test reveals that the feedback hypothesis explains the causal effects between GU and Bitcoin and unidirectional causality running from Bitcoin to gold price and oil price to Bitcoin.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {ARDL,Bitcoin,global economic uncertainty,gold price,NARDL,oil price}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/4SLWDSGQ/Dai et al. - 2022 - An Assessment of the Impact of Natural Resource Pr.pdf} } @article{dailey2022, entrysubtype = {newspaper}, title = {A Major Oil Company Is Selling Gas to Bitcoin Miners in {{North Dakota}} Instead of Burning off Excess Supply}, author = {Dailey, Natasha}, date = {2022-11-06}, journaltitle = {Markets Insider}, url = {https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/conocophillips-sells-natural-gas-north-dakota-bitcoin-miners-bakken-shale-2022-2}, urldate = {2023-02-11}, abstract = {The sale to third-party miners is part of ConocoPhillips' goal to reach zero routine gas flaring by 2025.}, langid = {american}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/WQECGZWL/conocophillips-sells-natural-gas-north-dakota-bitcoin-miners-bakken-shale-2022-2.html} } @letter{damaris2021, type = {Letter}, title = {Termination of {{Special Nuclear Materials License Number SNM-2019}} for the {{Ge-Hitachi Global Laser Enrichment Facility}} ({{Enterprise Project Identification Number}}: {{L-2020-DTP-0000}})}, author = {Damaris, Marco}, date = {2021-01-05}, langid = {english} } @article{daneshvarkakhki2010, title = {Valuation of {{Water}} and Its {{Sensitive Analysis}} in {{Agricultural Sector A Hedonic Pricing Approach}}}, author = {Daneshvar Kakhki, Mahmoud and Nasser, Shahnoushi and Narges, Khajehroshanaee}, date = {2010-01-01}, journaltitle = {American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Science}, shortjournal = {American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Science}, volume = {5}, abstract = {Problem statement: In the recent decades water scarcity and its impacts on agricultural sectors and food security are growing concerns worldwide. Water scarcity is one the major problem facing agricultural production in Iran. In this context valuation of irrigation water can be suggest as an appropriate solution. Approach: This research based on utilizing hedonic pricing method for estimating effective variables on the value of agricultural lands and used a way, for obtaining the value of irrigation water in Mashhad. Sensitive analysis is also used for observation of varieties in the value of water. Results: Results showed that, irrigation water is the most effective and significant variable in the controversial area. Results of the sensitive analysis indicated that, by increasing discount rate, the value of water increased. Whereas by decreasing period of investment and annual consumption of water, the value of it, decreased. Conclusion: In the case of agricultural lands are allocated to cultivation of valuable crops, discount rate of investment would increase; and also if agricultural lands invested in quick return activities, period of investment decrease. And therefore, the value of irrigation water in m-3 increases.

Moreover, subnational studies of bi-directional forest cover change, along with farm-level interview data and an understanding of ground-based operations, demonstrate that avoided deforestation is an incomplete measure of PES impact. Sub-national case studies suggest PES is associated with agricultural abandonment and net gains in forest cover via forest regeneration and plantation establishment. Explanations include that forest regeneration has always been an accepted PES modality for some regions. Also, early PES cohorts have an implicit spatial correlation with pre-PES incentives focusing exclusively on reforestation. Without understanding de facto PES implementation, it is impossible to appropriately evaluate PES impacts or discern whether PES outcomes—positive or negative—are due to PES design or its implementation.

This research considers the Upper and Middle Rio Grande basin to explore how groundwater use and management interact with interstate (i.e. intranational within the US) and international relations (US-Mexico). We consider three distinct geographic regions to address the following questions: how have intergovernmental surface water agreements affected local groundwater management and policies? And, how does groundwater management at local scale influence intergovernmental relations over water? We combine documentary data and interview data collected through extensive fieldwork during 2016 and 2017. The analysis reveals the emergence of both state-driven and community-based groundwater initiatives aimed at reconciling needs and obligations stemming from different geographical and institutional levels. The analysis uncovers strong institutional interplay across water management levels and suggests that compliance with intergovernmental agreements in federal and international contexts both affects and is affected by local groundwater management. Moreover, we observed that while local water managers are sometimes prevented from solving problems locally due to interstate rules, opportunities for innovation in local groundwater governance can also be triggered by compliance obligations at other levels.}, keywords = {Environmental policy,federal,Groundwater,Groundwater management,institutional interplay,International relations,interstate,Rio Grande (Colo.-Mexico & Tex.),Rio Grande/Rio Bravo,transboundary water management,Water supply management}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/ANJAGPND/De Stefano et al. - 2018 - Groundwater Governance in the Rio Grande Co-evolu.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/P7UFNSAV/De Stefano et al. - 2018 - Groundwater Governance in the Rio Grande Co-evolu.pdf} } @article{devries2020, title = {Bitcoin’s Energy Consumption Is Underestimated: {{A}} Market Dynamics Approach}, shorttitle = {Bitcoin’s Energy Consumption Is Underestimated}, author = {family=Vries, given=Alex, prefix=de, useprefix=true}, date = {2020-12-01}, journaltitle = {Energy Research \& Social Science}, shortjournal = {Energy Research \& Social Science}, volume = {70}, pages = {101721}, issn = {2214-6296}, doi = {10.1016/j.erss.2020.101721}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214629620302966}, urldate = {2021-06-07}, abstract = {As the resource intensity of running Bitcoin has increased over recent years, it has become a serious concern for its potential impact on health and climate.

Various organizations need this for multiple purposes like properly assessing the urgency of the problem, implementing the right policy response in the right locations and for setting up mitigation programs. We propose a market dynamics approach to evaluate the current methods for obtaining information on Bitcoin’s energy demand. This allows us to establish that, while historically the Bitcoin mining industry has been growing most of the time, this growth allows market participants to pursue strategies that don’t necessarily involve the best devices, device settings, or locations. The bigger the profitability of mining, the more it allows market participants to make decisions that result in suboptimal power efficiency of the Bitcoin network. Specifically, while the profitability of mining peaked during 2019, we find that market participants primarily used older generations of devices with better availability and lower acquisition costs. Common estimation approaches don’t only fail to capture this behavior, but also fail to properly capture the market circumstances, like seasonal and geographic variation in electricity prices, that help enable participants to do so in the first place. This combination leaves common approaches prone to providing optimistic estimates during growth cycles.

An analysis of more recent data from Canada and Australia leads to a mining model with an average deposit extraction lifetime of 10±2years. This simple model provides an accurate description of the extractable amount of uranium for the recent mining operations. Using this model for all larger existing and planned uranium mines up to 2030, a global uranium mining peak of at most 58±4ktons around the year 2015 is obtained. Thereafter we predict that uranium mine production will decline to at most 54±5ktons by 2025 and, with the decline steepening, to at most 41±5ktons around 2030. This amount will not be sufficient to fuel the existing and planned nuclear power plants during the next 10–20years. In fact, we find that it will be difficult to avoid supply shortages even under a slow 1\%/year worldwide nuclear energy phase-out scenario up to 2025. We thus suggest that a worldwide nuclear energy phase-out is in order. If such a slow global phase-out is not voluntarily effected, the end of the present cheap uranium supply situation will be unavoidable.

His influential article in the American Economic Review in 1961 prompted substantial research measuring industrial structure at the regional scale and examining its relationships to economic outcomes. A considerable portion of this work operationalized the concept of regional industrial structure as sectoral diversity, the degree to which the composition of an economy is spread across heterogeneous activities. Diversity is a relatively simple construct to measure and interpret, but does not capture the implications of Chinitz’s ideas fully. The structure within regional industries may also influence the performance of business enterprises. In particular, regional intra-industry concentration - the extent to which an industry is dominated by a few relatively large firms in a locality - has not appeared in empirical work studying economic performance apart from individual case studies, principally because accurately measuring concentration within a regional industry requires firm-level information. Multiple establishments of varying sizes in a given locality may be part of the same firm. Therefore, secondary data sources on establishment size distributions (such as County Business Patterns or aggregated information from the Census of Manufactures) can yield only deceptive portrayals of the level of regional industrial concentration. This paper uses the Longitudinal Research Database, a confidential establishment-level dataset compiled by the United States Census Bureau, to compare the influences of industrial diversity and intra-industry concentration upon regional and firm-level economic outcomes.}, issue = {1649462}, langid = {english}, pubstate = {preprint}, keywords = {and Manufacturing Performance,Concentration,Diversity,Joshua M.

Effective policy analysis to support new regulations needs to have tools to estimate correctly the value of irrigation water. Irrigating land increases crop yields and this higher profitability should be capitalized into the sales price of the land. For irrigation that depends on surface water rights, studies have found this to be the case (Xu et al. 1993, Faux and Perry 1999). However, studies that have analyzed the value of groundwater in irrigation have found mixed results. Hartman and Taylor (1989) and Sunderland, Libbin and Torell (1987) find that groundwater irrigation has no significant effect on land prices; Torrell et al. (1990) find a significant positive effect of groundwater in irrigation. One explanation is that in areas where groundwater use is not restricted there is the option to implement irrigation in the future and thus the presence of groundwater irrigation may not have a large effect on the sales price. Consistent with this idea of option value, Petrie and Taylor (2007) look at differences in land values before and after a moratorium on water-use permits and find that permits add value to agricultural land only after the restriction is in place. An additional econometric issue is that the decision to irrigate is not random but is based on the underlying characteristics of the land. Thus hedonic estimates of the value of irrigation rights may be biased. In this thesis we analyze the value of groundwater in an area with pumping restrictions using both a standard hedonic model and a propensity score matching model. we use a geospatial database from Chase County, Nebraska that includes arms length sales, tax assessor’s data, hydrologic and climatic variables. We find that per acre values of groundwater irrigation are over 15 percent higher using the propensity score method compared to the hedonic model. This result is driven in large part by the preferential adoption of irrigation on intermediate quality land. An important implication for policy is that hedonic estimates of the value of groundwater in irrigation may underestimate the cost, to both farmers and the government, of future water use reductions.}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/57NLZAQ6/Dunston - 2010 - Estimating the value of groundwater in irrigation.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/RHIPZIPK/Dunston - 2010 - Estimating the value of groundwater in irrigation.pdf} } @article{durbin1954, title = {Errors in {{Variables}}}, author = {Durbin, J.}, date = {1954}, journaltitle = {Revue de l'Institut International de Statistique / Review of the International Statistical Institute}, volume = {22}, number = {1/3}, eprint = {1401917}, eprinttype = {jstor}, pages = {23--32}, publisher = {[International Statistical Institute (ISI), Wiley]}, issn = {0373-1138}, doi = {10.2307/1401917}, url = {https://www.jstor.org/stable/1401917}, urldate = {2024-05-02}, abstract = {Nous supposons avoir un échantillon de n paires d'observations correspondant au modèle régressif: y′ = βx′ + ξ. Nous désirons calculer approximativement β. Il est bien connu que quand les observations de x′ contiennent des erreurs de mesure, le calcul approximatif de β se trouve faussé. Le problème de trouver une valeur satisfaisante de β est un vieux problème dans la théorie des régressions; il a été traité par de nombreux auteurs. Cet article envisage trois différentes manières de traiter le problème: celle de Berkson, l'emploi de variables auxiliaires et la méthode classique. Berkson a montré que, dans certains cas d'expériences scientifiques, les erreurs d'observation se conduisent de telle manière que la valeur ordinaire de β ne s'en trouve pas faussée. Dans une certaine mesure des cas semblables peuvent se présenter en économétrie. Il est, par conséquent, nécessaire d'examiner la nature de ces erreurs avant de conclure que l'estimation de β est sérieusement erronée. Dans les cas où la méthode de Berkson ne s'applique pas, l'erreur sur β peut parfois être réduite par l'emploi de variables auxiliaires. Soit z une variable en corrélation avec x′ mais non avec l'erreur d'observation sur x′: alors on appelle z une variable auxiliaire.

Recent innovations have made it feasible to transfer private digital currency without the intervention of an organization such as a bank. Any currency must prevent users from spending their balances more than once, which is easier said than done with purely digital currencies. Current digital currencies such as Bitcoin use peer-to-peer networks and open source software to stop double spending and create finality of transactions. This paper explains how the use of these technologies and limitation of the quantity produced can create an equilibrium in which a digital currency has a positive value. This paper also summarizes the rise of 24/7 trading on computerized markets in Bitcoin in which there are no brokers or other agents. The average monthly volatility of returns on Bitcoin is higher than for gold or a set of foreign currencies in dollars, but the lowest monthly volatilities for Bitcoin are less than the highest monthly volatilities for gold and the foreign currencies.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Bitcoin,Block chain,Cryptocurrency,Economic aspects,Emoney,Money,Peer to peer computing,Private currency}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/KAB3P2QC/Dwyer - 2015 - The economics of Bitcoin and similar private digit.pdf} } @article{eash-gates2020, title = {Sources of {{Cost Overrun}} in {{Nuclear Power Plant Construction Call}} for a {{New Approach}} to {{Engineering Design}}}, author = {Eash-Gates, Philip and Klemun, Magdalena M. and Kavlak, Goksin and McNerney, James and Buongiorno, Jacopo and Trancik, Jessika E.}, date = {2020-11-18}, journaltitle = {Joule}, shortjournal = {Joule}, volume = {4}, number = {11}, pages = {2348--2373}, issn = {2542-4351}, doi = {10.1016/j.joule.2020.10.001}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S254243512030458X}, urldate = {2023-02-27}, abstract = {Nuclear plant costs in the US have repeatedly exceeded projections.

The portions of an aquifer where water moves rapidly, those with high hydraulic conductivity, as well as those that receive less yearly recharge, face a more costly common-pool problem and therefore receive higher benefits from management. The introduction of management districts in Kansas is used to test the effect of underlying aquifer characteristics on changes in agricultural land value, farm size, and crop choice. A landowner in a county with hydraulic conductivity one standard deviation higher sees a relative land value increase of 5\%–8\% when management is implemented. Counties with lower recharge also see relative increases in land value. Changes in farm size and percentage of cropland in corn are also consistent with the proposition that the effect of management is unequal and depends on properties of the physical system.}, keywords = {Common-pool resources,D70,Groundwater,Property rights,Q15,Q25,Q56}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/T2LDKFN2/Edwards - 2016 - What Lies Beneath Aquifer Heterogeneity and the E.pdf} } @article{edwards2021, title = {The {{Economics}} of {{Groundwater Governance Institutions}} across the {{Globe}}}, author = {Edwards, Eric C. and Guilfoos, Todd}, date = {2021-12}, journaltitle = {Applied Economic Perspectives \& Policy}, volume = {43}, number = {4}, pages = {1571--1594}, publisher = {John Wiley \& Sons, Inc.}, issn = {20405790}, doi = {10.1002/aepp.13088}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=eih&AN=153561148&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2023-07-07}, abstract = {This article provides an economic framework for understanding the emergence and purpose of groundwater governance across the globe.

Therefore the Crow Water Quality Project included uranium in its tests of home well water. Volunteers had their well water tested and completed a survey about their well water use. More than 2/3 of the 97 wells sampled had detectable uranium; 6.3\% exceeded the MCL of 30 μg/L. Wells downgradient from the uranium-bearing formations in the mountains were at highest risk. About half of all Crow families rely on home wells; 80\% of these families consume their well water.

The first chapter provides a brief overview of three important areas of groundwater commons irrigation addressed in this dissertation. The second chapter’s objectives are two-fold. First, I review the common-pool resources literature relative to concerns of sustainable extraction and implementation of conservation policies focusing on pricing incentives in the management of groundwater commons where irrigators share the same underlying aquifer. Second, I introduce a theoretical model involving incorporating a non-constant marginal cost of water dependent on a Pigouvian tax anddepth to water as cost-metric water scarcity measure into a multi-crop agricultural production theoretical model. This model motivates the empirical investigation of how irrigators are impacted differently by implementation of a conservation fee designed as a constant per unit water withdrawal (pumping) tax, based on the varying levels of scarcity they are con-fronted with. The third chapter describes the data and the sources of the data used in the dissertation as well as the implementation of a pumping fee in San Luis Valley of Colorado, the study region. In the fourth chapter, I present and estimate an empirical model motivated by the theoretical model of Chapter 2. The empirical investigation reveals that irrigators are impacted differently by the pumping fee based on the varying levels of scarcity they are face with. The fifth chapter builds on the analysis in the fourth chapter. Having established differential effects of the pumping fee on irrigators based on scarcity levels, I proceed to investigate how this might affect the distributional efficiency of this pricing policy. I categorize irrigators into two groups—low water-stress severity and high water-stress severity statuses – based on whether they have faced continuous scarcity for at least two successive irrigation or growing seasons. I interact this dummy variable with the pumping fee policy variable and conduct a panel quantile regression analysis. The result of this chapter shows that severely water-stressed irrigators with low pumping levels bear a disproportionate portion of the pumping tax burden, suggesting that a constant per unit pumping fee is regressive and may not be distributionally efficient in addressing conservation in groundwater commons in the long run. In the sixth chapter, I adopt a game theoretic approach, modelling possible interaction among irrigating units, to investigate the strategic responses of these irrigating units. Irrigating units may alter their irrigating habits in response to changes in irrigation choices and other farming input decisions by neighbors. I estimate Spatial Durbin Models, includinga Spatial Durbin fractional Probit model to explore whether spillover effects exist among irrigating units in terms of water use intensity, acreage size choice and production (land) use intensity. I control for the pumping fee, surface water use, depth to water levels (scarcity), types and acres of crops cultivated, and other irrigating unit specific characteristics, including their spatially lagged counterparts. The results indicate that in determining the amount of water use intensity, acreage size choices, and production intensity, irrigating units consider the choices of neighbors, with the strength of spatial dependency being highest for production intensity. Additionally, there are significant spillover (indirect) effects from changes in key covariates that show inadequacy of estimating only direct effects.}, isbn = {9798516959134}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Adjustment,Agricultural economics,Agriculture,Aquifers,Climate Change,Competition,Drought,Economics,Efficiency,Environmental economics,Estimates,Fees & charges,Groundwater,Irrigation,Variables,Water Resources Management,Water shortages}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/EC424HFP/Ekpe - 2021 - Pumping Fees and Spillovers in the Groundwater Com.pdf} } @article{el-emam2019, title = {Comprehensive Review on the Techno-Economics of Sustainable Large-Scale Clean Hydrogen Production}, author = {El-Emam, Rami S. and Özcan, Hasan}, date = {2019-05-20}, journaltitle = {Journal of Cleaner Production}, shortjournal = {Journal of Cleaner Production}, volume = {220}, pages = {593--609}, issn = {0959-6526}, doi = {10.1016/j.jclepro.2019.01.309}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959652619303361}, urldate = {2024-05-13}, abstract = {This paper provides an extensive analysis of the literature on technological, economic, and environmental aspects for clean-hydrogen production.

In addition, recent literature on environmental aspects of common clean-hydrogen production technologies is investigated and their results are analyzed. Among clean energy sources, lower electricity prices from nuclear and geothermal energy make these sources feasible for low-cost hydrogen generation that has the potential to compete with fossil-based hydrogen production. Solar and wind conversion technologies and their intermittent nature are strongly affecting hydrogen production cost. However, mature technologies provide competitive hydrogen cost values, especially when integrated to electrolysis-based technologies.

After an exogenous shock, the adjustment between US and UK gas prices took approximately 20 weeks on average, and the convergence was mediated mainly by crude oil with a necessary condition that arbitrage across the Atlantic was possible.

Particular emphasis is placed on a full life-cycle analysis that allows one to optimize mitigation measures, with a view to reducing the overall impacts of uranium production systems while being in compliance with the applicable environmental and health and safety legislation. Due to the exhaustion of high-grade ores, new challenges from mining lower-grade ores arise for the development of low-impact mining and milling operations.

Impact assessment through the Cumulative Energy Demand (CED) method is also carried out to assess the usage of renewable and non-renewable sources of energy in uranium extraction processes. All analysis is carried out for 1 kg uranium production through three different processes by using heavy fuel and diesel as the energy source. The comparative impact-assessment results for the open-pit mining method, underground mining, and in-situ leaching mining methods are presented and discussed in detail. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis has been carried out to rationalize the linear relationship between the materials or fuels responsible for environmental impacts and sustainability. Three different scenarios are assessed including the base case scenario of the uranium extraction process.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between net farm income, cash rents and land values in the state of Kansas and provides insight regarding future land values. This study estimates partial adjustment models for cash rent and land values and uses those results to infer long-run capitalization rates and earnings multipliers. These models are used to forecast Kansas land values through 2018 and also the long-run price of farmland given 2016 expectations. Land adjusts to changes in Kansas net farm income slowly with a one-year elasticity of 6.7 percent. The long-run elasticity is 96.9 percent which is very close to the 100 percent suggested by the theoretical income capitalization model. The long-run multiplier for income in Kansas is 21.71 which implies a capitalization rate of 4.61 percent. The estimated results suggest that Kansas land values would peak in 2016 and begin to slowly decline. If market conditions were to remain the same, land values would ultimately decrease to \$1,171 per acre, a 28 percent decline from current levels. Declines of the magnitude in estimated land values could negatively affect the financial condition of the sector. Factors such as a change in the long-run capitalization rate or unexpected supply or demand shocks for agricultural commodities globally could certainly alter the long-term prospects.

On the basis of Hotelling's unpublished archival material, this paper revisits the place given to the Hotelling rule in non-renewable resource economics. Our reconstruction shows that Hotelling's 1931 paper has been misinterpreted: from the outset, the Hotelling rule was not valid for mineral resources. In contrast, the consideration of two inherent geological constraints, alongside exhaustibility, offered the opportunity for an alternative basic framework, capable to generate bell-shaped and U-shaped equilibrium trajectories for supplies and prices, respectively. Inspired by this unknown aspect of Hotelling's work brought to light by our archival investigation, we sketch this alternative basic model, enabling non-renewable resource economics to circumvent the empirical shortfalls of the Hotelling rule.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/WN7VY47D/Ferreira da Cunha and Missemer - 2020 - The Hotelling rule in non-renewable resource econo.pdf} } @report{fisher1994, title = {Uranium Hexafluoride Public Risk}, author = {Fisher, D.

The threshold for nephrotoxicity appears to lie very near 3 \{mu\}g U per gram kidney tissue. There does not appear to be strong scientific support for any other improved estimate, either higher or lower than this, of the threshold for uranium nephrotoxicity in a human being. The value 3 \{mu\}g U per gram kidney is the concentration that results from a single intake of about 30 mg soluble uranium by inhalation (assuming the metabolism of a standard person). The concentration of uranium continues to increase in the kidneys after long-term, continuous (or chronic) exposure. After chronic intakes of soluble uranium by workers at the rate of 10 mg U per week, the concentration of uranium in the kidneys approaches and may even exceed the nephrotoxic limit of 3 \{mu\}g U per gram kidney tissue. Precise values of the kidney concentration depend on the biokinetic model and model parameters assumed for such a calculation. Since it is possible for the concentration of uranium in the kidneys to exceed 3 \{mu\}g per gram tissue at an intake rate of 10 mg U per week over long periods of time, we believe that the kidneys are protected from injury when intakes of soluble uranium at the rate of 10 mg U per week do not continue for more than two consecutive weeks. For long-term, continuous occupational exposure to low-level, soluble uranium, we recommend a reduced weekly intake limit of 5 mg uranium to prevent nephrotoxicity in workers.

A main finding is that global oil supply is rather vertical, with a short-term elasticity around 0.05.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated rare high uranium (∼1000~ppmU) in spatial association with P/Ca and Si/O attributed to relict uranium minerals, possibly coffinite, uraninite, and autunite, trapped within low permeability layers bypassed during ISR mining. Fission track analysis revealed lower but still elevated concentrations of U in the clay/silica matrix and organic matter (several 10~s~ppm) and yet higher concentrations associated with Fe-rich/S-poor sites, likely iron oxides, on altered chlorite or euhedral pyrite surfaces (but not on framboidal pyrite).

Microbial community analysis showed a diverse group of bacteria present with a wide range of putative metabolisms, and provides evidence for a variety of redox microenvironments co-existing in core samples.

Uranium can enter groundwater by geochemical reactions, natural deposition from minerals, mining, uranium ore processing, and spent fuel disposal. Although much progress has been made in uranium remediation in recent years, most published reviews on uranium treatment have focused on specific methods, particularly adsorption. This article systematically reviews the major treatment technologies, explains their mechanism and progress of uranium removal, and compares their performance under various environmental conditions. Of all treatment methods, adsorption has received much attention due to its ease of use and adaptability under various conditions. However, salinity and competition from other ions limit its application in actual field conditions. Biosorption and bioremediation are also promising methods due to their low-cost and chemical-free operation. Strong base anion exchange resins are more effective at typical groundwater pH conditions. Advanced oxidation processes like photocatalysis produce less sludge and are effective even at low uranium concentrations. Electrocoagulation shows significantly improved performance when organic ligands are added prior to treatment. The significant advantages of membrane filtration are high removal efficiency and the ability to recover uranium. While each technology has its merits and demerits, no single technology is entirely suitable under all conditions. One major area of concern with all technologies is the need to dispose of liquid and solid waste generated after treatment safely. Future research must focus on developing hybrid and state-of-the-art technologies for effective and sustainable uranium removal from groundwater.

The two-stage approach is robust to treatment-effect heterogeneity under staggered adoption, and can be used to identify a host of different average treatment effect measures.

The system approach produces estimates of a complete set of causal relationships among the variables, but it requires strong assumptions to do so. We explain these assumptions and describe similarities and differences with the classical instrumental variables (IV) model. We demonstrate that the population analogue of the Wald IV estimator for a particular causal effect is identical to the ratio of two impulse responses from an SVAR. We further demonstrate that incorrect identification assumptions about some components of the SVAR do not necessarily invalidate the estimated causal effects of other components.

Second, crude oil wells produce associated gas, while natural gas wells often produce associated liquid hydrocarbons. This creates an associated-commodity channel through which a price shock for one commodity will increase supply of the other. Which effect dominates depends on the characteristics of the producing region. We test the model using well-level data from five large oil and gas producing basins in Texas and Oklahoma.

This article argues that, under circumstances that generally prevail in semiarid zones, assigning property rights to groundwater and permitting the market to determine the allocation of water use can lead to a second-best solution. An argument is made that if potential users would be allowed to Coase-bargain with incumbent users on the issuance of new groundwater rights, the second-best solution is elevated to a Pareto-optimal solution. This article is also a tale of two states: water law and performance in New Mexico and Arizona. At the outset this paper held that the adaptation of the appropriative system to groundwater gives rise to an efficient intertemporal allocation of groundwater diversion where natural recharge and the slope of the demand for water are small relative to the storage of the aquifer. This should be true in typical cases of mining groundwater (e.g., the Ogallala), as well as in most cases of rechargeable aquifers such as the Pecos. Thus it has been shown that the appropriative system, by establishing exclusive individual water rights, prevents congestion but also results in pumping trajectories that are roughly identical with optimal control. It was stressed, however, that in the absence of a mechanism allowing a potential user who appears on the scene to compensate the incumbents to increase aggregate rights in his favor, we cannot be sure that a Pareto-optimal level of groundwater rights has been reached.

Design: Cost effectiveness analysis. Setting: United Kingdom. Data sources: Epidemiological data on risks from indoor radon and from smoking, vital statistics on deaths from lung cancer, survey information on effectiveness and costs of radon prevention and remediation. Main outcome measures: Estimated number of deaths from lung cancer related to indoor radon, lifetime risks of death from lung cancer before and after various potential interventions to control radon, the cost per quality adjusted life year (QALY) gained from different policies for control of radon, and the potential of those policies to reduce lung cancer mortality. Results: The mean radon concentration in UK homes is 21 becquerels per cubic metre (Bq/m³). Each year around 1100 deaths from lung cancer (3.3\% of all deaths from lung cancer) are related to radon in the home. Over 85\% of these arise from radon concentrations below 100 Bq/m³ and most are caused jointly by radon and active smoking. Current policy requiring basic measures to prevent radon in new homes in selected areas is highly cost effective, and such measures would remain cost effective if extended to the entire UK, with a cost per QALY gained of £11 400 (€12 200; \$16 913). Current policy identifying and remediating existing homes with high radon levels was, however, neither cost effective (cost per QALY gained £36 800) nor effective in reducing lung cancer mortality. Conclusions: Policies requiring basic preventive measures against radon in all new homes throughout the UK would be cost effective and could complement existing policies to reduce smoking. Policies involving remedial work on existing homes with high radon levels cannot prevent most radon related deaths, as these are caused by moderate exposure in many homes. These conclusions are likely to apply to most developed countries, many with higher mean radon concentrations than the UK.}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/LKY6MKUF/Gray et al. - 2009 - Lung Cancer Deaths from Indoor Radon and the Cost .pdf} } @misc{gregory2015, title = {Wyoming’s {{Uranium Resources}}}, author = {Gregory, Robert W and Drean, Thomas A}, date = {2015-02}, url = {https://www.wsgs.wyo.gov/products/wsgs-2015-uranium-summary.pdf}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/HUJEJZWM/Gregory and Drean - Wyoming’s Uranium Resources.pdf} } @article{greve2003, title = {Design and Implementation of a Cooperative Water Quality Monitoring Program in {{Colorado}}'s {{Big Thompson Watershed}}}, author = {Greve, A.

To better meet the needs of its stakeholders, the BTWF since 1999 has been actively pursuing the design and implementation of a cooperative water quality monitoring program. The program design involved consensus building among the funding participants, primarily drinking water providers. The final design included 38 parameters to be sampled 15 times per year at 24 stream and canal locations plus two reservoirs. Although the collaborative consensus based approach has been successful for the BTWF, this approach has its drawbacks; most notable among these are the time and labor this approach requires. Also, the BTWF struggled with achieving equal representation of all interests, since those agencies that provided funding had the greatest voice in the final product.

This text offers a comprehensive development of water resource economics that is accessible to engineers and natural scientists as well as economists. The goal is to build a practical platform for understanding and performing economic analysis using both theoretical and empirical tools. The mathematics needed to understand the subjects covered in this text include basic optimization methods and integral calculus. Familiarity with microeconomics or natural resource economics is helpful, but all the economics needed is presented and developed progressively in the text. Many water-based example calculations are included. Thus the book can be used for independent study as well as course work. The book focuses on the scarcity of water quantity (rather than water quality). The author presents the economic theory of resource allocation, recognizing the peculiarities imposed by water, and expands the theory to encompass time-defined matters such as ground water depletion. He then discusses such subjects as institutional economics, water law, how economics is used in policy and cost-benefit analysis, the roles of water marketing and water pricing, demand and supply estimation, privatization, and modeling with demand and supply functions. As an aid to readers with specific interests, references to recent literature are given for all of these topics. Each chapter ends with a summary and exercises. All graphic portrayals of economic theory and most calculations are performed using Mathematica software.

We used several approaches, including the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag ARDL model, the cointegration test at Pesaran et al. (2001) and the Granger causality test in the sense of Toda and Yamamoto (1995). Our estimated results suggest that the number of addresses, the attractiveness indicator and the mining difficulty have a significant impact on the BTC price with variations over time. On the other hand, the transaction volume, the stock, the EUR/USD exchange rate and the macroeconomic and financial development do not determine the price of the BTC in the short term as well as in the long term.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {ARDL,attractiveness,Bitcoin,demand,financial development,macro-economic development,mining difficulty,supply,volatility}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/3FIUBUK5/Guizani and Nafti - 2019 - The Determinants of Bitcoin Price Volatility An I.pdf} } @article{guntner2014, title = {How Do Oil Producers Respond to Oil Demand Shocks?}, author = {Güntner, Jochen H.F.}, date = {2014-07}, journaltitle = {Energy Economics}, shortjournal = {Energy Economics}, volume = {44}, pages = {1--13}, issn = {01409883}, doi = {10.1016/j.eneco.2014.03.012}, url = {https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0140988314000590}, urldate = {2022-11-16}, abstract = {This paper analyzes the response of international oil producers to demand-induced changes in the price of crude oil during 1975–2011, focusing on potential differences between OPEC and non-OPEC countries.

I find that oil producers hardly respond to demand shocks within the same month, and that the corresponding impact price elasticities of supply are statistically indistinguishable from zero. While there is little evidence of differences in the dynamic responses to a typical flow demand shock, on average over the sample period, OPEC members seem to curtail production in response to a speculative demand shock, whereas non-OPEC production expands significantly.

In existing research on oilfield warehouse location problems, it is usually assumed that the oil well locations are known. However, in real oilfield, operations, as well locations, are affected by underground reservoir conditions and the long-term plans of the oilfield company; future well locations that might be serviced by a warehouse are highly uncertain. In addition, previous warehouse location research has tended to solve location problems using a discrete or continuous location model without considering delivery problems. With these deficits in mind, this paper applies a Monte Carlo simulation to simulate future well locations, then selects several suitable candidates using a continuous location model and finally uses discrete location optimization to determine the optimal solution while also considering the distribution interruption problem. Finally, an oil warehouse location problem in the south of the Ordos Basin in China is given as an example of the process. Using relevant data such as number of wells, well locations and materials quantities required, Zhengning is identified as the optimal location for the storage warehouse construction. The simulation indicated that RMB 55,000 would be saved every year, proving the strength of the model to save logistics costs. In an environment in which well locations are uncertain, the combination of a continuous location model and a discrete location model can significantly enhance warehouse location logistics decisions in the oil and gas industries.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/K5U8IAW3/Guo et al. - 2018 - Combining a continuous location model and Heuristi.pdf} } @article{haacker2016, title = {Water {{Level Declines}} in the {{High Plains Aquifer}}: {{Predevelopment}} to {{Resource Senescence}}}, shorttitle = {Water {{Level Declines}} in the {{High Plains Aquifer}}}, author = {Haacker, Erin M.

Here 254 uranium occurrences, including 169 deposits, 73 prospects, 6 showings and 4 anomalies, have been identified. About 80million pounds of U3O8 have been produced and about 60million pounds of identified producible U3O8 remain in place. The development of economic roll-type uranium deposits requires a source, large-scale transport of uranium in groundwater, and deposition in reducing zones within a sedimentary sequence. The weight of the evidence supports a source from thick sequences of volcanic ash and volcaniclastic sediment derived mostly from the Trans-Pecos volcanic field and Sierra Madre Occidental that lie west of the region. The thickest accumulations of source material were deposited and preserved south and west of the San Marcos arch in the Catahoula Formation. By the early Oligocene, a formerly uniformly subtropical climate along the Gulf Coast transitioned to a zoned climate in which the southwestern portion of Texas Coastal Plain was dry, and the eastern portion humid. The more arid climate in the southwestern area supported weathering of volcanic ash source rocks during pedogenesis and early diagenesis, concentration of uranium in groundwater and movement through host sediments. During the middle Tertiary Era, abundant clastic sediments were deposited in thick sequences by bed-load dominated fluvial systems in long-lived channel complexes that provided transmissive conduits favoring transport of uranium-rich groundwater. Groundwater transported uranium through permeable sandstones that were hydrologically connected with source rocks, commonly across formation boundaries driven by isostatic loading and eustatic sea level changes. Uranium roll fronts formed as a result of the interaction of uranium-rich groundwater with either (1) organic-rich debris adjacent to large long-lived fluvial channels and barrier–bar sequences or (2) extrinsic reductants entrained in formation water or discrete gas that migrated into host units via faults and along the flanks of salt domes and shale diapirs. The southwestern portion of the region, the Rio Grande embayment, contains all the necessary factors required for roll-type uranium deposits. However, the eastern portion of the region, the Houston embayment, is challenged by a humid environment and a lack of source rock and transmissive units, which may combine to preclude the deposition of economic deposits. A grade and tonnage model for the Texas Coastal Plain shows that the Texas deposits represent a lower tonnage subset of roll-type deposits that occur around the world, and required aggregation of production centers into deposits based on geologic interpretation for the purpose of conducting a quantitative mineral resource assessment.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Deposits,Genetic,Model,Resources,Texas,Uranium} } @article{hamilton1983, title = {Oil and the {{Macroeconomy}} since {{World War II}}}, author = {Hamilton, James D.}, date = {1983-04}, journaltitle = {Journal of Political Economy}, shortjournal = {Journal of Political Economy}, volume = {91}, number = {2}, pages = {228--248}, issn = {0022-3808, 1537-534X}, doi = {10.1086/261140}, url = {https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/261140}, urldate = {2024-02-06}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/P5VI8E82/Hamilton - 1983 - Oil and the Macroeconomy since World War II} } @article{hamilton1983a, title = {Oil and the {{Macroeconomy}} since {{World War II}}}, author = {Hamilton, James D.}, date = {1983-04}, journaltitle = {Journal of Political Economy}, volume = {91}, number = {2}, pages = {228--248}, publisher = {University of Chicago}, issn = {00223808}, doi = {10.1086/261140}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=buh&AN=5052178&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2023-02-11}, abstract = {Focuses on the correlation between oil industries and macroeconomics in the United States.

The prevalence of small farms in the 1930s limited private solutions for controlling the downwind externalities associated with wind erosion. Drifting sand from unprotected fields damaged neighboring farms. Small farmers cultivated more of their land and were less likely to invest in erosion control than larger farmers. Soil conservation districts, established by the government after 1937, helped coordinate erosion control.

In this new version, with restrictions on the ratio of treated subjects to controls within matched sets, full matching makes use of many more observations than does pair matching, but achieves far closer matches than does matching with k≥ 2 controls. Prior to matching, the coached and uncoached groups are separated on the propensity score by 1.1 SDs. Full matching reduces this separation to 1\% or 2\% of an SD. In older literature comparing matching and regression, Cochran expressed doubts that any method of adjustment could substantially reduce observed bias of this magnitude. To accommodate missing data, regression-based analyses by ETS researchers rejected a subset of the available sample that differed significantly from the subsample they analyzed. Full matching on the propensity score handles the same problem simply and without rejecting observations. In addition, it eases the detection and handling of nonconstancy of treatment effects, which the regression-based analyses had obscured, and it makes fuller use of covariate information.

Characteristics of water rights transfers in the South Platte Basin of Colorado and transfers of shares of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (NCWCD) are compared to show how different institutional arrangements can affect the types and size distributions of transfers. The characteristics of water rights transfers in the prosperous South Platte are then compared with water rights transfer characteristics in the economically marginal Arkansas River basin of Colorado to identify the effects of different economic environments. Finally, the economic losses from reductions in irrigated acreage resulting from water transfers are estimated for the South Platte and Arkansas and compared with purchase prices by municipalities. Transfers in the South Platte were to new uses in the same basin, while more recent transfers in the Arkansas were to out of basin users. Transfers of South Platte rights and especially NCWCD shares were small and continuous over time, while transfers in the Arkansas were dominated by a few very large transfers. The negative impacts are judged to be more severe in the Arkansas basin than in the South Platte. Purchase prices paid by municipalities substantially exceeded capitalized transitional losses in the selling areas. In the South Platte, gains and losses were in the same basin, while the Arkansas absorbed the losses, with the benefits going to the purchasing basin.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {compensation,economic efficiency,economic impacts,transaction costs,water markets}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/6IS9WP97/Howe and Goemans - 2003 - Water Transfers and Their Impacts Lessons from Th.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/M8MGRU5Q/Howe and Goemans - 2003 - Water Transfers and Their Impacts Lessons from Th.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/FWV9C4M2/j.1752-1688.2003.tb03692.html} } @article{howitt1980, title = {A Reevaluation of Price Elasticities for Irrigation Water}, author = {Howitt, Richard E. and Watson, William D. and Adams, Richard M.}, date = {1980}, journaltitle = {Water Resources Research}, volume = {16}, number = {4}, pages = {623--628}, issn = {1944-7973}, doi = {10.1029/WR016i004p00623}, url = {http://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1029/WR016i004p00623}, urldate = {2021-02-27}, abstract = {The effectiveness of pricing systems in the allocation of irrigation water is linked with the price elasticity of demand of farmers for water.

Current groundwater pumping rates frequently exceed recharge, often by a substantial amount, leading to groundwater depletion and potential declines in agricultural profits over time. As a result, many regions reliant on irrigated agriculture have proposed policies to manage groundwater use. Even when gains from aquifer management exist, there is little information about how policies affect individual producers sharing the resource. In this paper, we investigate the variability of groundwater management policy impacts across heterogeneous agricultural producers. To measure these impacts, we develop a hydroeconomic model that captures the important role of well capacity, productivity of water, and weather uncertainty. We use the model to simulate the impacts of groundwater management policies on producers in the High Plains aquifer of eastern Colorado and compare outcomes to a no-policy baseline. The management policies considered include a pumping fee, a quantity restriction, and an irrigated acreage fee. We find that well capacity and soil type affect policy impacts but in ways that can qualitatively differ across policy type.

The experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of anion (sulfate and nitrate) on dealing with uranium wastewater. Experimental results show that the utilization of both SRB system and ZVI - SRB system to process uranium wastewater is affected by sulfate ion and nitrate ion. As the concentration of sulfate radical is lower than 4000mg/L, sulfate-reducing bacteria has no influence on precipitated uranium. However, as the concentration of sulfate is more than 6,000mg/L, uranium removal rate decreases significantly, from 80\% to 14.1\%. When adding sulfate radical on ZVI - SRB system to process uranium wastewater, its uranium removal rate is higher than SRB system. Low concentration of nitrate contributes to reduction metabolism of SRB. High concentration of nitrate inhibits the growth and metabolism of SRB and affects the treatment efficiency of uranium wastewater. When the concentration of nitrate reaches 1500mg/L, uranium removal rate is less than 0.1\%. Nevertheless, as the concentration of nitrate is lower than 1000mg/L, uranium removal rate could reach more than 75\%.

At the time, uranium was mined as a derivative of gold and diamonds. However, due to international opposition to the Apartheid regime’s nuclear weapons programme, along with the boycott and divestment from South Africa movement of the 1980s, the development of large scale uranium mining was halted. Since the emergence of the new democratic state, however, there has been renewed interest in the large-scale exploration and exploitation of uranium deposits, especially in the Great Karoo. The economic viability of uranium mining in the Great Karoo was established in 2006, following the completion of an exploration phase. While this was welcomed by the government and interested mining companies, other stakeholders, such as farmers and environmental groups, hold different views on the project. How do different stakeholders view the risk and vulnerability associated with the uranium mining project in the Great Karoo? What are the specific narratives of each of the stakeholders, and how do these narratives resonate with the ‘sustainability/economic growth’ debate?

This study applies the quantile regression approach for the 2010–2018 period. For robustness, this paper splits the whole sample period into two different subsamples: a more volatile and a less volatile sub-period. Moreover, to capture both long- and short-run asymmetries between Bitcoin and gold price returns, an asymmetric nonlinear cointegration approach (NARDL) is applied. The results evidence that the most relevant risk factor is the VIX index, followed by changes in the STLFSI stress index, and both show negative and statistically significant effects on Bitcoin returns in most periods and quantiles. The US stock market returns have statistically significant effects (with positive sign) on Bitcoin returns in all periods and specifically in high quantiles. Bitcoin returns show negative statistically significant sensitivity to changes in nominal interest rates in the highest quantile and the full period. Moreover, Bitcoin returns show negative and statistically significant sensitivity to oil returns at low quantiles, by serving as a safe-haven asset during economic turmoil. Therefore, in general, the sensitivity of Bitcoin returns to movements in international risk factors tends to be more pronounced in extreme market conditions (bullish and bearish scenarios), showing the highest explanatory power in the lowest quantile. Finally, we have applied the non-linear ARDL approach to analyse the long- and short-run relations between Bitcoin and gold price returns and have found a positive and statistically significant connectedness between them.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Bitcoin,International factors,NARDL,Quantile regression,Stock market}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/YCTWBNCI/Jareño et al. - 2020 - Bitcoin and gold price returns A quantile regress.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/FJZ4JSQI/S0301420719309985.html} } @article{javaid2015, title = {Incorporating Local Institutions in Irrigation Experiments: Evidence from Rural Communities in {{Pakistan}}}, shorttitle = {Incorporating Local Institutions in Irrigation Experiments}, author = {Javaid, Aneeque and Falk, Thomas}, date = {2015}, journaltitle = {Ecology and society}, volume = {20}, number = {2}, pages = {28-}, publisher = {Resilience Alliance}, issn = {1708-3087}, doi = {10.5751/ES-07532-200228}, abstract = {Many irrigation systems are special cases of common-pool resources (CPRs) in which some users have preferential access to the resource, which in theory aggravates collective action challenges such as the under-provision of necessary infrastructure as a result of unequal appropriation of water resources. We present experimental evidence based on an irrigation game played in communities that are dependent on one of the largest contiguous irrigation network: the Indus basin irrigation system in Punjab, Pakistan. Furthermore, we simulate two institutional mechanisms that are neglected in experimental studies, despite their importance in many CPR governance systems: traditional authorities and legal pluralism. In our experiments, Punjabi farmers (N= 160) managed to provide the CPR at a level close to the social optimum, even without communication or enforcement opportunities. The equal investment in water infrastructure seems to be a strong social norm, even though those in disadvantageous positions (tail-users) earn less than those who have preferential access (head-users). At the same time, head-users restrain themselves from maximum resource extraction, which could be interpreted either as a norm or a stationary bandit strategy. In contrast to one of the most consistent findings of previous experimental studies, the participants in our experiment increased their earnings over the experimental rounds by using the available resources in a more efficient manner. One explanation for this behavior could be the availability of social information in our game. Starting from a high level of cooperation during baseline rounds, the treatments did not change the group investment significantly. The introduction of external sanctions created additional coordination problems, which led to a decrease in the level of group welfare. More specifically, head-users reduced their water extraction in the face of possible external sanctions to a level that the remaining water could not be used completely by tail-users.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {asymmetric access,Basin irrigation,Canals,common-pool resources,Communities,field experiments,Human ecology,Irrigation management,Irrigation systems,Irrigation water,Pakistan,Punjab,Securities sales,traditional authorities,Water management,Water resources}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/YGP342U8/Javaid and Falk - 2015 - Incorporating local institutions in irrigation exp.pdf} } @article{jenkins2014, title = {Political Economy Constraints on Carbon Pricing Policies: {{What}} Are the Implications for Economic Efficiency, Environmental Efficacy, and Climate Policy Design?}, shorttitle = {Political Economy Constraints on Carbon Pricing Policies}, author = {Jenkins, Jesse D.}, date = {2014-06}, journaltitle = {Energy Policy}, shortjournal = {Energy Policy}, volume = {69}, pages = {467--477}, issn = {03014215}, doi = {10.1016/j.enpol.2014.02.003}, url = {https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0301421514000901}, urldate = {2023-07-24}, abstract = {Economists traditionally view a Pigouvian fee on carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions, either via carbon taxes or emissions caps and permit trading (“cap-and-trade”), as the economically optimal or “first-best” policy to address climate change-related externalities. Yet several political economy factors can severely constrain the implementation of these carbon pricing policies, including opposition of industrial sectors with a concentration of assets that would lose considerable value under such policies; the collective action nature of climate mitigation efforts; principal agent failures; and a low willingness-to-pay for climate mitigation by citizens. Real-world implementations of carbon pricing policies can thus fall short of the economically optimal outcomes envisioned in theory. Consistent with the general theory of the second-best, the presence of binding political economy constraints opens a significant “opportunity space” for the design of creative climate policy instruments with superior political feasibility, economic efficiency, and environmental efficacy relative to the constrained implementation of carbon pricing policies. This paper presents theoretical political economy frameworks relevant to climate policy design and provides corroborating evidence from the United States context. It concludes with a series of implications for climate policy making and argues for the creative pursuit of a mix of second-best policy instruments.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/EZY5RH62/Jenkins - 2014 - Political economy constraints on carbon pricing po.pdf} } @article{jensen1998, title = {Transaction Costs, Regulation, and Subcontracting at Nuclear Power Plants}, author = {Jensen, J.

We use an extended learning curve specification, named multiple factors learning curve (MFLC). In a first stage, we estimate a single MFLC. In a second stage, we estimate the MFLC under the framework of simultaneous system of equations which takes into account the uranium supply and demand. This permits not only to enhance the reliability of the estimation by incorporating the uranium price formation mechanisms in the MFLC via the price variable, but also to give preliminary insights about uranium supply and demand behaviors and the associated effects on the nuclear expansion. Results point out that the nuclear cost has important prospects for decrease via capacity expansion, i.e. learning-by-doing effects. In contrast, they show that the learning-by-searching as well as the scale effects have a limited effect on the cost decrease prospects. Conversely, results also show that uranium price exerts a positive and significant effect on nuclear cost, implying that when the uranium price increases, the nuclear power generation cost decreases.

The oil shale deposit in sedimentary strata with hidden layering, and the kerogen in oil shale is dispersed in flat strips that ranges from a few to tens of microns in size. A large amount of micro-scale pores and fractures are formed along the bedding in oil shale during the in-situ pyrolysis process, which creates connected channels and enhances the effectiveness of thermal fluid injection and the yield of pyrolysis products.

The principles of effective pyrolysis energy of oil shale are proposed so as to evaluate development stage of the reserve, meantime, the advantages of steam as a heat carrier fluid are specified by comparing the effective injection energy of steam and other gases. Furthermore, the scientific, technical, industrial advances of latest developments, including electric heating, fluid injection heating, combustion, and radiant heating in oil shale in-situ conversion technology are reviewed in detail.

However, there is very limited information about toxic elements in drinking water in Afghanistan. In this study, levels of 10 elements (chromium, nickel, copper, arsenic, cadmium, antimony, barium, mercury, lead and uranium) in 227 well drinking water samples in Kabul, Afghanistan were examined for the first time. Chromium (in 0.9\% of the 227 samples), arsenic (7.0\%) and uranium (19.4\%) exceeded the values in WHO health-based guidelines for drinking-water quality. Maximum chromium, arsenic and uranium levels in the water samples were 1.3-, 10.4- and 17.2-fold higher than the values in the guidelines, respectively. We next focused on uranium, which is the most seriously polluted element among the 10 elements. Mean~±~SD (138.0~±~1.4) of the 238U/235U isotopic ratio in the water samples was in the range of previously reported ratios for natural source uranium. We then examined the effect of our originally developed magnesium (Mg)-iron (Fe)-based hydrotalcite-like compounds (MF-HT) on adsorption for uranium. All of the uranium-polluted well water samples from Kabul (mean~±~SD~=~190.4~±~113.9~μg/L; n~=~11) could be remediated up to 1.2~±~1.7~μg/L by 1\% weight of our MF-HT within 60~s~at very low cost ({$<$}0.001 cents/day/family) in theory. Thus, we demonstrated not only elevated levels of some toxic elements including natural source uranium but also an effective depurative for uranium in well drinking water from Kabul. Since our depurative is effective for remediation of arsenic as shown in our previous studies, its practical use in Kabul may be encouraged.}, keywords = {Afghanistan,Depuration,Uranium,Well drinking water} } @online{katz2023, title = {Dow's {{Bold Carbon-Reduction Strategy}}}, author = {Katz, Jonathan}, date = {2023-09-12}, url = {https://www.chemicalprocessing.com/industrynews/news/33011356/dow-announces-bold-carbon-reduction-strategy}, urldate = {2024-05-06}, abstract = {Nuclear energy will take center stage in Seadrift, Texas, by the end of the decade}, organization = {Chemical Processing}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/RDW8XRF5/dow-announces-bold-carbon-reduction-strategy.html} } @article{kazatomprom2024, entrysubtype = {newspaper}, title = {Kazatomprom Expects Adjustments to Its 2024 {{Production Plans}}}, author = {{Kazatomprom}}, date = {2024-01-12}, url = {https://www.kazatomprom.kz/en/media/view/kazatomprom_expects_adjustments_to_its_2024_production_plans}, urldate = {2024-03-16}, abstract = {Kazatomprom expects adjustments to its 2024 Production Plans\ }, langid = {english} } @online{kehoe2023, title = {Wyoming {{State Geological Survey}}}, author = {Kehoe, Kelsey}, date = {2023}, url = {https://www.wsgs.wyo.gov/energy/uranium-mining.aspx}, urldate = {2024-05-03}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/U6RHRAVK/uranium-mining.html} } @article{kellogg2014, title = {The {{Effect}} of {{Uncertainty}} on {{Investment}}: {{Evidence}} from {{Texas Oil Drilling}}†}, shorttitle = {The {{Effect}} of {{Uncertainty}} on {{Investment}}}, author = {Kellogg, Ryan}, date = {2014-06}, journaltitle = {American Economic Review}, volume = {104}, number = {6}, pages = {1698--1734}, publisher = {American Economic Association}, issn = {00028282}, doi = {10.1257/aer.104.6.1698}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=buh&AN=96226786&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2022-05-09}, abstract = {This paper estimates the response of investment to changes in uncertainty using data on oil drilling in Texas and the expected volatility of the future price of oil.

Using different econometric models, i) a time-varying parameter structural vector autoregression (TVP SVAR) model with short-run identifying restrictions, ii) a structural VAR (SVAR) model with the short-run identifying restrictions, and iii) a VAR model with orderingfree generalized impulse response VAR (GIR VAR), we find that the response of the Chinese interest rate to the oil price shocks is not only time-varying but also showing quite different signs of responses. Specifically, in the earlier sample period (1992:4–2001:10), the interest rate shows a negative response to the oil price shock, while in the latter period (2001:11–2014:5) it shows a positive response to the shock. Given the negative response of the world oil production to an oil price shock in the earlier period, the shock is identified as a negative supply shock or a precautionary demand shock as suggested by Kilian (2009), thereby the negative response of the interest rate to the oil price shock is deemed as economy-boosting. The positive response of the interest rate to the oil price shock in the later period, given that this shock is identified as a positive world oil demand shock, gives evidence that stabilization of inflation is one of the main objectives of China's monetary authority, even though the current main objective of the monetary policy is characterized as “maintaining the stability of the value of the currency and thereby promoting economic growth.” Finally, the variance decomposition results reveal that the oil price shock becomes an increasingly important source in the volatility of China's interest rate. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

More than 3000 stockholders around the world were convened at the summit to discuss how low-cost clean hydrogen production would be a huge step towards solving climate change. Hydrogen is a dynamic fuel that can be used across all industrial sectors to lower the carbon intensity. By 2030, the summit hopes to have developed a means to reduce the current cost of clean hydrogen by 80\%; i.e., to USD 1 per kilogram. Because of the importance of clean hydrogen towards carbon neutrality, the overall DOE budget for Fiscal Year 2021 is USD 35.4 billion and the total budget for DOE hydrogen activities in Fiscal Year 2021 is USD 285 million, representing 0.81\% of the total DOE budget for 2021. The DOE hydrogen budget of 2021 is estimated to increase to USD 400 million in Fiscal Year 2022. The global hydrogen market is growing, and the US is playing an active role in ensuring its growth. Depending on the electricity source used, the electrolysis of hydrogen can have no greenhouse gas emissions. When assessing the advantages and economic viability of hydrogen production by electrolysis, it is important to take into account the source of the necessary electricity as well as emissions resulting from electricity generation. In this study, to evaluate the levelized cost of nuclear hydrogen production, the International Atomic Energy Agency Hydrogen Economic Evaluation Program is used to model four types of LWRs: Exelon’s Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) in New York; Palo Verde NPP in Arizona; Davis-Besse NPP in Ohio; and Prairie Island NPP in Minnesota. Each of these LWRs has a different method of hydrogen production. The results show that the total cost of hydrogen production for Exelon’s Nine Mile Point NPP, Palo Verde NPP, Davis-Besse NPP, and Prairie Island NPP was 4.85 ± 0.66, 4.77 ± 1.36, 3.09 ± 1.19, and 0.69 ± 0.03 USD/kg, respectively.

Our objective is to demonstrate the state of the art in the literature on ways to think about this complex resource and to deal with the important economic issues emanating from its complexity. We present the conceptual framework within which economists examine the elements interacting in the management of groundwater resources, indicate why the role of the market is limited with respect to the price of this very complex resource, and point to the mechanisms that can pull competitive groundwater price and quality-graded quantity of groundwater in line with their equilibrium levels. In particular, we critically review economic models of groundwater use, examine the potential for groundwater management, discuss the difficulties encountered in the estimation of the relevant control variables of such models, and identify the advantages and limitations of the instruments devised for the efficient use (allocation) of this resource. Finally, we argue that devised regulatory schemes usually ignore the information and knowledge needed for their implementation, and we suggest a core of conditions necessary for successful groundwater management reforms.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Economic instruments,Groundwater management,Political economy of reform}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/6MEEARTR/Koundouri - 2004 - Current Issues in the Economics of Groundwater Res.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/FX3JB3CM/Koundouri - 2004 - Current Issues in the Economics of Groundwater Res.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/8EXY2N3X/j.1467-6419.2004.00234.html} } @misc{kozeracki2023, title = {Pathways to {{Commercial Liftoff}}: {{Advanced Nuclear}}}, author = {Kozeracki, Julie and Vlahoplus, Chris and Scott, Katheryn and Bates, Melissa and Valderrama, Billy and Bickford, Erica and Stuhldreher, Tim and Foss, Andrew and Fanning, Tom}, date = {2023-03}, url = {https://liftoff.energy.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/20230320-Liftoff-Advanced-Nuclear-vPUB.pdf}, urldate = {2023-11-30}, organization = {Energy Information Administration} } @article{krall2022, title = {Nuclear Waste from Small Modular Reactors}, author = {Krall, Lindsay M. and Macfarlane, Allison M. and Ewing, Rodney C.}, date = {2022-06-07}, journaltitle = {Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences}, volume = {119}, number = {23}, pages = {e2111833119}, publisher = {Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences}, doi = {10.1073/pnas.2111833119}, url = {https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2111833119}, urldate = {2023-02-27}, abstract = {Small modular reactors (SMRs; i.e., nuclear reactors that produce {$<$}300 MWelec each) have garnered attention because of claims of inherent safety features and reduced cost.

This paper only focuses on computational power demand during the proof-of-work process rather than estimating the whole energy intensity of mining. We make use of 160GB of Bitcoin blockchain data to estimate the energy consumption and power demand of Bitcoin mining. We considered the performance of 269 different hardware models (CPU, GPU, FPGA, and ASIC). For estimations, we defined two metrics, namely; minimum consumption and maximum consumption. The targeted time span for the analysis was from 3 January 2009 to 5 June 2018. We show that the historical peak of power consumption of Bitcoin mining took place during the bi-weekly period commencing on 18 December 2017 with a demand of between 1.3 and 14.8~GW. This maximum demand figure was between the installed capacities of Finland (∼16~GW) and Denmark (∼14~GW).

In this model we have extended into consumption theory activity analysis, which has proved so penetrating in its application to production theory. The crucial assumption in making this application has been the assumption that goods possess, or gire rise to, multiple characteristics in fixed proportions and that it is these characteristics, not goods themselves, on which the consumer's preferences are exercised. The result, as this brief survey of the possibilities has shown, is a model very many rimes richer in heuristic explanatory and predictive power than the con- ventional model of consumer behavior and one that deals easily with those many common-sense characteristics of actual behavior that have found no place in traditional exposition. This paper is nothing more than a condensed presentation of some of the great number of possible ways in which the model can be used.

When they choose to contribute voluntarily to an environmental public good, farmers may be driven by descriptive norms akin to conformity (do as the majority of their peers) as well as by injunctive norms (in line with what society expects them to do), which are the equivalent of a social injunction to act in favour of the environment. The interactions between these two social norms can yield multiple equilibria, depending on the relative weight of the descriptive norm (sensitivity to conformism) and of the injunctive norm (sensitivity to moral pressure) in the utility functions of farmers.

This study estimates the economic value of instream flow to non-commercial kayakers derived using a Travel Cost Method recreation demand model and Contingent Valuation Method (CVM), a type of Contingent Behavior Method (CBM). Data were obtained from a visitor survey administered along the Poudre River in Colorado. In the dichotomous choice CVM willingness to pay (WTP) question, visitors were asked if they would still visit the river if the cost of their trip was \$Y higher, and the level of \$Y was varied across the sample. The CVM yielded an estimate of WTP that was sensitive to flows ranging from \$55 per person per day at 300 Cubic Feet per Second (CFS) to a maximum \$97 per person per day at flows of 1900 CFS. The recreation demand model estimated a boater's number of trips per season. We found the number of trips taken was also sensitive to flow, ranging from as little as 1.63 trips at 300 CFS to a maximum number of 14 trips over the season at 1900 CFS. Thus, there is consistency between peak benefits per trip and number of trips, respectively. With an average of about 100 non-commercial boaters per day, the maximum marginal values per acre foot averages about \$220. This value exceeds irrigation water values in this area of Colorado.

This challenge is exacerbated by the growing impacts and uncertainty of climate change on water resources. Calls to reform water governance systems are often made in the context of these challenges, and reform efforts increasingly emphasize the need for solutions that are locally designed and administered. Such reforms often require fundamental institutional change that is difficult to achieve amid the myriad forces that stabilize and reproduce existing institutional structures and functions. In practice, governance change is instead overwhelmingly incremental and tends to be punctuated by periods of adjustment in response to social or environmental shocks and disturbances. We present a comparative study of four major Colorado river basins and examine how each has evolved distinct arrangements of groundwater governance in response to regulatory and drought disturbances over the past century. We interrogate concepts of path-dependence and apply a historical lens to understand why locally designed institutions for self-regulation emerge in some Colorado groundwater basins but not in others. We uncover a pattern of collective action by groundwater users that first seeks to oppose state regulation, followed by acceptance and efforts to comply, and eventual attempts to get ahead of state regulation by enacting local institutions for self-regulation. We report these findings and discuss the insights they offer for understanding how adaptive natural resources institutions are shaped through time by the constraints and opportunities of path-dependence and local contexts.}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/BBBU39M9/Loos et al. - 2022 - Individual to collective adaptation through increm.pdf} } @article{lopez2019, title = {Uranium Supply Potential from Phosphate Rocks for {{Argentina}}'s Nuclear Power Fleet}, author = {López, Luis and Castro, Liliana N. and Scasso, Roberto A. and Grancea, Luminita and Tulsidas, Harikrishnan and Haneklaus, Nils}, date = {2019-08-01}, journaltitle = {Resources Policy}, shortjournal = {Resources Policy}, volume = {62}, pages = {397--404}, issn = {0301-4207}, doi = {10.1016/j.resourpol.2019.04.008}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301420718307062}, urldate = {2024-02-07}, abstract = {Argentina's nuclear reactor fleet provides about 10\% of the country's electricity, and it is foreseen to increase nuclear power production in the future.

These analyses, Koomey and Hultman (2007); Grubler (2010), and Escobar-Rangel and Lévêque (2015), study only 26\% of reactors built globally between 1960 and 2010, providing an incomplete picture of the economic evolution of nuclear power construction. This study curates historical reactor-specific overnight construction cost (OCC) data that broaden the scope of study substantially, covering the full cost history for 349 reactors in the US, France, Canada, West Germany, Japan, India, and South Korea, encompassing 58\% of all reactors built globally.

Families that rely on private wells are thus at risk of exposure to a variety of unmeasured contaminants. Case Presentation A family of seven—two adults and five children—residing in rural northwestern Connecticut discovered elevated concentrations of uranium in their drinking water, with levels measured at 866 and 1,160 μg/L, values well above the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant level for uranium in public water supplies of 30 μg/L. The uranium was of natural origin, and the source of exposure was found to be a 500-foot well that tapped groundwater from the Brookfield Gneiss, a geologic formation known to contain uranium. Other nearby wells also had elevated uranium, arsenic, and radon levels, though concentrations varied widely. At least one 24-hr urine uranium level was elevated ({$>$} 1 μg/24 hr) in six of seven family members (range, 1.1–2.5 μg/24 hr). To assess possible renal injury, we measured urinary beta-2-microglobulin. Levels were elevated ({$>$} 120 μg/L) in five of seven family members, but after correction for creatine excretion, the beta-2-microglobulin excretion rate remained elevated ({$>$} 40 μg/mmol creatinine) only in the youngest child, a 3-year-old with a corrected level of 90 μg/mmol creatinine. Three months after cessation of well water consumption, this child’s corrected beta-2-microglobulin level had fallen to 52 μg/mmol creatinine. Significance This case underscores the hazards of consuming groundwater from private wells. It documents the potential for significant residential exposure to naturally occurring uranium in well water. It highlights the special sensitivity of young children to residential environmental exposures, a reflection of the large amount of time they spend in their homes, the developmental immaturity of their kidneys and other organ systems, and the large volume of water they consume relative to body mass.}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/LKE9SGVZ/Magdo et al. - 2007 - Grand Rounds Nephrotoxicity in a Young Child Expo.pdf} } @article{maguire2017, title = {Energy {{Boom}} and {{Gloom}}? {{Local Effects}} of {{Oil}} and {{Natural Gas Drilling}} on {{Subjective Well-Being}}}, shorttitle = {Energy {{Boom}} and {{Gloom}}?}, author = {Maguire, Karen and Winters, John V.}, date = {2017-12}, journaltitle = {Growth \& Change}, volume = {48}, number = {4}, pages = {590--610}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, issn = {00174815}, doi = {10.1111/grow.12204}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=126564849&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2022-05-09}, abstract = {Prior to the precipitous drop in oil prices in 2014, the U.S. had experienced a substantial increase in oil and natural gas extraction due to technological advancements including horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing.

We use the model to measure the economic benefits to agricultural producers of a program that pays for water right retirement. Under the baseline scenario, without water right retirement, the benefits from groundwater stocks in the study region decline in value by \$3.6 million over 15 years because of groundwater depletion. Water right retirement leads to groundwater benefits that are \$0.55 million higher than in the baseline after 15 years, but benefits vary greatly over space. Comparing this to an explicit program cost of \$45 million suggests that other social benefits from groundwater stocks must exist to justify the program from a benefit-cost perspective.

Recently, due to the globalization of the problem many new factors such as political, social, regulatory, government, environmental consideration, etc. gained importance in the decision making process. One of the goals in this thesis is to identify the relevant factors in manufacturing site selection and incorporate them into the data analysis. The collection of a wide range of factors that impact the manufacturing site selection problem at a country level, the quantification of these factors, and incorporation of them into the decision making process needs a quantitative, comprehensive, and flexible approach. In this research hundred countries has been considered for factor analysis and classification. To cluster these countries according to their manufacturing site selection attributes, thirty-four frequently cited attributes are chosen. These factors, also, can be quantified with major economic, business, social, political, and environmental metrics. Factor analysis techniques have used to investigate interrelationships between selected attributes. Our analysis showed that some of these factors can be dropped from our data set. Finally, two types of clustering algorithms, Agglomerative Hierarchical and K-means, are employed to classify countries according to their similarity regrading quantified attributes.

However, transition scholars have only just begun to analyze decline. This paper uses the technological innovation systems (TIS) perspective to study decline. Our case is nuclear energy, which is at a crossroads. Some view nuclear as a key technology to address climate change, while others see an industry in decline. We examine a broad range of empirical indicators at the global scale to assess whether or not nuclear energy is in decline. We find that an eroding actor base, shrinking opportunities in liberalized electricity markets, the break-up of existing networks, loss of legitimacy, increasing cost and time overruns, and abandoned projects are clear indications of decline. Also, increasingly fierce competition from natural gas, solar PV, wind, and energy-storage technologies speaks against nuclear in the electricity sector. We conclude that, while there might be a future for nuclear in state-controlled ‘niches’ such as Russia or China, new nuclear power plants do not seem likely to become a core element in the struggle against climate change. Our conceptual contribution is twofold. First, we show how the TIS framework can be mobilized to study technology decline.

There has, however, been a constant decline in uranium production due to a low demand. A recent increase in the energy demand in South Africa and increased concerns regarding climate change have rejuvenated the interest in uranium and the processing of uranium. South Africa depends on coal for the generation of its electricity and additionally the government of South Africa has prioritised nuclear and renewable energy sources to supplement the national based energy grid. There are growing global concerns regarding the environmental impacts associated with uranium mining and processing and legacy sites. This paper identifies the sources of uranium contamination and their impacts on the environment and provides the best strategies for preventing a negative legacy from future sites of uranium mining and processing. It gives an international perspective on the economic, social and environmental impacts of the legacy of uranium mining and processing.

We also observed significant economies of scale, even if we take into account interest during construction, as well as the so-called overnight cost.

Methods During the spring of 2015, an in-patient clinical surveillance protocol was performed on 36 members of the cohort, including exposure monitoring for total and isotopic uranium concentrations in urine and a comprehensive assessment of health outcomes. Results On-going mobilization of U from embedded fragments is evidenced by elevated urine U concentrations. The DU isotopic signature is observed principally in participants possessing embedded fragments. Those with only an inhalation exposure have lower urine U concentration and a natural isotopic signature. Conclusions At 25 years since first exposure to DU, an aging cohort of military veterans continues to show no U-related health effects in known target organs of U toxicity. As U body burden continues to accrue from in-situ mobilization from metal fragment depots, and increases with exposure duration, critical tissue-specific U concentration thresholds may be reached, thus recommending on-going surveillance of this veteran cohort.}, keywords = {DU bio-monitoring,Health surveillance,Uranium toxicity}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/MCJEX7W3/S0013935116308398.html} } @article{mcdonald1986, title = {The {{Value}} of {{Waiting}} to {{Invest}}}, author = {McDonald, Robert and Siegel, Daniel}, date = {1986}, journaltitle = {The Quarterly Journal of Economics}, volume = {101}, number = {4}, eprint = {1884175}, eprinttype = {jstor}, pages = {707--728}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, issn = {0033-5533}, doi = {10.2307/1884175}, url = {https://www.jstor.org/stable/1884175}, urldate = {2023-04-20}, abstract = {This paper studies the optimal timing of investment in an irreversible project where the benefits from the project and the investment cost follow continuous- time stochastic processes.

Since it will be some time before technologies of future nuclear reactors which remove the reliance on natural uranium are fully deployed, it is relevant to analyse the availability conditions for uranium in the 21st century. The first two conditions - technical accessibility and economic value - are associated with production cost. We study these by modelling the ultimate uranium resources (including both identified and undiscovered resources) and their cost. This method is based on a regional breakdown of global uranium resources, current known deposits and an economic filter. It allows us to establish a long-term supply curve in which the quantities of technically accessible uranium resources are represented as a function of production cost. The other uranium availability conditions considered are associated with market dynamics, which created by the relationship between supply and demand. These are modelled in the form of dynamic constraints in a partial equilibrium market model. This is a deterministic model in which the market players are represented by regions. It allows us to take account, for instance, of the short-term correlation between price and exploration expenditure. In the longer term, the constraints modelled include anticipation of demand from electric utilities (the consumers) and the increasing scarcity of the least costly ultimate resources. Using a series of forward looking simulations, we demonstrate that the rate of growth in demand for uranium in the 21st century and its anticipation have a major impact on the increase in price in the long-term. Conversely, uncertainties related to the estimation of ultimate resources have a limited effect. Lastly, some variations in supply (uranium production shutdown in a particular region, for example) or demand (irregular increase) also have a significant impact on long-term price trends or cycles.} } @article{monnet2017b, title = {Analysis of the Long-Term Availability of Uranium: {{The}} Influence of Dynamic Constraints and Market Competition}, shorttitle = {Analysis of the Long-Term Availability of Uranium}, author = {Monnet, Antoine and Gabriel, Sophie and Percebois, Jacques}, date = {2017-06-01}, journaltitle = {Energy Policy}, shortjournal = {Energy Policy}, volume = {105}, pages = {98--107}, issn = {0301-4215}, doi = {10.1016/j.enpol.2017.02.010}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S030142151730085X}, urldate = {2024-02-07}, abstract = {` The availability of natural uranium has a direct impact on the global capability to sustain the demand from nuclear power plants in the coming decades.

Only one percent of the earth's fresh water resources are available for human activity. The gap between water supply and demand is increasing due to population growth, development pressure and climate change. Poor water quality aggravates this imbalance even more. A serious concern that naturally arises is how will agriculture, which consumes 70\% of world's freshwater withdrawals, respond to these issues. This creates an increasing need for efficient strategies for water management in terms of both water quantity and quality in agriculture. With those needs in mind, the objectives of this research are to, first, better understanding how and the magnitude by which changes in water supply characteristics influence farmland values and second, identify possible adaptation strategies that reduce negative impacts of such changes. With a micro-level data set on approximately 700 agricultural parcels and a hedonic property value model, this dissertation begins by focusing on how groundwater quality and quantity differences and their interactions influence farmland values in the Central Valley, California, a state plagued by both groundwater overdraft and salinity issues. Then this analysis is extended to the entire state of California using information on 1900 agricultural parcels to investigate how different water supply characteristics from different water supply sources influence farmland values and how developing a diversified water portfolio can mitigate the negative changes associated with water supplies. One major conclusion of this dissertation is the importance of recognizing that water is a differentiated product and that there are several pathways in which it can influence irrigated agriculture, including changes in levels, variability and quality. Another major conclusion, and one that can be applied to other regions globally as water becomes scarcer and any particular water supply source becomes less reliable, is that there seem to be significant benefits to water districts and managers in developing a more diversified water portfolio, a lesson embraced all to well in other sectors of the economy, notably the financial sector.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/J433UPB3/Mukherjee - 2013 - Valuing Groundwater Services and Water Portfolio i.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/WAJF32WU/Mukherjee - 2013 - Valuing Groundwater Services and Water Portfolio i.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/538MRMUK/9pw6r8rh.html} } @article{mukherjee2014, title = {Where's the Salt? {{A}} Spatial Hedonic Analysis of the Value of Groundwater to Irrigated Agriculture}, shorttitle = {Where's the Salt?}, author = {Mukherjee, Monobina and Schwabe, Kurt A.}, date = {2014-11-01}, journaltitle = {Agricultural Water Management}, shortjournal = {Agricultural Water Management}, series = {Exploring Some of the Socio-Economic Realities of Sustainable Water Management in Irrigation}, volume = {145}, pages = {110--122}, issn = {0378-3774}, doi = {10.1016/j.agwat.2014.01.013}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378377414000298}, urldate = {2024-01-24}, abstract = {Groundwater provides many valuable services to society, especially as a source of irrigation water.

Reported results from hedonic methods that have estimated the potential benefits of groundwater to irrigated agriculture, though, are rather mixed.

Using a rich data set of parcel-level characteristics and market values for irrigated agricultural land located in California's Central Valley — an irrigation-intensive region with significant heterogeneity in both groundwater depth and salinity — we find that failure to include salinity as an argument explaining land values can lead to poor assessments as to the marginal value of the groundwater. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of accounting for the non-separability between groundwater depth, groundwater quality, and land values by showing how the marginal value of changes in groundwater and salinity are influenced by one another. Damages associated with projected increases in groundwater salinity by the year 2030 are estimated also.}, keywords = {Agriculture,Groundwater,Hedonic property value method,Irrigation,Salinity} } @book{mullan2016, title = {A {{History}} of {{Digital Currency}} in the {{United States}}: {{New Technology}} in an {{Unregulated Market}}}, shorttitle = {A {{History}} of {{Digital Currency}} in the {{United States}}}, author = {Mullan, P.

It is a short-duration crop, versatile in use, suitable for growing in a wide range of environments, and its production is increasing rapidly. The modern potato is considered a drought-sensitive crop, and it is susceptible to yield loss because of drought stress. Unfortunately, drought severity, frequency, and extent have been increasing around the globe because of climate change. Potato drought susceptibility has primarily been attributed to its shallow root system. However, several studies in past decades have suggested that drought susceptibility of potato also depends upon the type, developmental stage, and the morphology of the genotype, and the duration and severity of drought stress. They have been overlooked, and root depth is considered the only significant cause of potato drought susceptibility. This review combines these studies to understand the varying response of potato genotypes. This review also explores the current potato production scenario and the effect of varying degrees of drought stress on potatoes’ growth, development, and yield. In the absence of drought-tolerant genotypes, agronomic practices should be improved to mitigate drought stress. Late maturing cultivars, nutrient management, mulching, and foliar application of plant growth regulators can be used during prolonged droughts.

We separately analyze three key stages of gas production: drilling wells, completing wells, and producing natural gas from the completed wells. The most important margin is drilling investment, and neither production from existing wells nor completion times respond strongly to prices. We estimate a gas drilling response of 0.9\% per 1\% gas price shock, for both conventional and unconventional sources. Nonetheless, because unconventional wells produce about three times more gas per well than conventional ones, the supply response is much larger for unconventional supply. Accounting for changes to the level and composition of drilling activity, the gas supply is about three times more responsive during the “shale era” of 2010–15 compared to 2000–2005. We illustrate how the distinctions between the stages of production (drilling, completion, and production) are key to understanding price responsiveness.}, keywords = {D24,drilling,L71,natural gas supply,Q41,shale gas,supply response}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/9LHJ5GT5/Newell et al. - 2019 - Trophy Hunting versus Manufacturing Energy The Pr.pdf} } @article{newman1988, title = {Econometric Analysis of Business Tax Impacts on Industrial Location: {{What}} Do We Know, and How Do We Know It?}, shorttitle = {Econometric Analysis of Business Tax Impacts on Industrial Location}, author = {Newman, Robert J. and Sullivan, Dennis H.}, date = {1988}, journaltitle = {Journal of Urban Economics}, volume = {23}, number = {2}, pages = {215--234}, publisher = {Elsevier}, url = {https://ideas.repec.org//a/eee/juecon/v23y1988i2p215-234.html}, urldate = {2023-12-05}, abstract = {No abstract is available for this item.}, issue = {2}, langid = {english} } @article{nick2014, title = {What Drives Natural Gas Prices? — {{A}} Structural {{VAR}} Approach}, shorttitle = {What Drives Natural Gas Prices?}, author = {Nick, Sebastian and Thoenes, Stefan}, date = {2014-09}, journaltitle = {Energy Economics}, shortjournal = {Energy Economics}, volume = {45}, pages = {517--527}, issn = {01409883}, doi = {10.1016/j.eneco.2014.08.010}, url = {https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0140988314001911}, urldate = {2023-01-27}, abstract = {In this study, we develop a structural vector autoregressive model (VAR) for the German natural gas market.

This means that the long run relationship properties are intact. In other words, the means and variances are constant and not depending on time. However, most empirical researches have shown that the constancy of the means and variances are not satisfied in analyzing time series variables. In the event of resolving this problem most cointegration techniques are wrongly applied, estimated, and interpreted. One of these techniques is the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration technique or bound cointegration technique. Hence, this study reviews the issues surrounding the way cointegration techniques are applied, estimated and interpreted within the context of ARDL cointegration framework. The study shows that the adoption of the ARDL cointegration technique does not require pretests for unit roots unlike other techniques. Consequently, ARDL cointegration technique is preferable when dealing with variables that are integrated of different order, I(0), I(1) or combination of the both and, robust when there is a single long run relationship between the underlying variables in a small sample size. The long run relationship of the underlying variables is detected through the F-statistic (Wald test). In this approach, long run relationship of the series is said to be established when the Fstatistic exceeds the critical value band. The major advantage of this approach lies in its identification of the cointegrating vectors where there are multiple cointegrating vectors. However, this technique will crash in the presence of integrated stochastic trend of I(2). To forestall effort in futility, it may be advisable to test for unit roots, though not as a necessary condition. Based on forecast and policy stance, there is need to explore the necessary conditions that give rise to ARDL cointegration technique in order to avoid its wrongful application, estimation, and interpretation. If the conditions are not followed, it may lead to model misspecification and inconsistent and unrealistic estimates with its implication on forecast and policy. However, this paper cannot claim to have treated the underlying issues in their greatest details, but have endeavoured to provide sufficient insight into the issues surrounding ARDL cointegration technique to young practitioners to enable them to properly apply, estimate, and interpret; in addition to following discussions of the issues in some more advanced texts.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/XJR88FKS/Nkoro and Uko - Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegratio.pdf} } @article{nordhaus2012, title = {Economic {{Policy}} in the {{Face}} of {{Severe Tail Events}}}, author = {Nordhaus, William D.}, date = {2012}, journaltitle = {Journal of Public Economic Theory}, volume = {14}, number = {2}, pages = {197--219}, issn = {1467-9779}, doi = {10.1111/j.1467-9779.2011.01544.x}, url = {https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1467-9779.2011.01544.x}, urldate = {2024-01-18}, abstract = {From time to time, something occurs which is outside the range of normal expectations.

The general idea is that, under limited conditions concerning the structure of uncertainty and risk aversion, society has an indefinitely large expected loss from high-consequence, low-probability events. Under such conditions, standard economic tools such as cost-benefit analysis cannot be applied. The present study is intended to put the Dismal Theorem in context and examine the range of its relevance, with an application to catastrophic climate change.

The challenges faced for sustainably managing such common pool resources, on which people have established de facto individual rights, are manifold. However, creating a market for trades of some kind in ecosystem services associated with groundwater could actually enhance the protection of this critical resource on the basis that protection can benefit individual groundwater users economically as well as provide a broader public good. This article uses Elinor Ostrom's design principles as an analytical tool to examine how market-based approaches such as payments for ecosystem services (PES) fit with some of the governance models that could be used to protect and enhance groundwater as a common pool resource.

As production increases, marginal profits (marginal revenues less marginal extraction cost) are observed to decline, while as production decreases, marginal profits rise at a positive rate that is not necessarily the rate of discount. A numerical calibration to the global oil market predicts substantially higher future oil prices and considerably lower global oil production with the more realistic geological constraints set-up than with the Hotelling simulation. While mainly (small) non-OPEC producers increase production in response to higher oil prices induced by the geological constraints, most (large) producers’ production declines, leading to a lower peak level for global oil production.

In field settings, it is rare that the opportunity to communicate is costless. Someone has to invest time and effort to create and maintain arenas for face-to-face communication. The cost of providing an arena for communicating has not been overtly considered in previous experimental work.

In summary, the provision problem players faced in the costly communication experiments was not trivial and did in fact create a barrier. In all three experiments, the problem of providing the institution for communication diminished the success of either: (a) having the ability to develop a coordinated strategy and/or (b) dealing with players who cheated on a previous agreement.

A substantial gap exists between the theoretical prediction that self-interested individuals will have extreme difficulty in coordinating collective action and the reality that such cooperative behavior is widespread, although far from inevitable. Both theorists and empirical researchers are trying to bridge this gap. Recent work in game theory--often in a symbiotic relationship with evidence from experimental studies--has set out to provide an alternative micro theory of individual behavior that begins to explain anomalous findings.

Here, we analyse the use of learning curves in energy technology, usually implemented as a simple power function. We find that the learning curve cannot separate the effects of price and technological change, cannot reflect continuous and qualitative change of both conventional and emerging energy technologies, cannot help to determine the time paths of technological investment, and misses the central role of R\&D activity in driving technological change. We argue that a logistic curve of improving performance modified to include R\&D activity as a driving variable can better describe the cost reductions in energy technologies. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the top-down Leontief technology can incorporate the bottom-up technologies that improve along either the learning curve or the logistic curve, through changing input–output coefficients.

The proposed tests are based on standard F- and t-statistics used to test the significance of the lagged levels of the variables in a univariate equilibrium correction mechanism. The asymptotic distributions of these statistics are non-standard under the null hypothesis that there exists no level relationship, irrespective of whether the regressors are I(0) or I(1). Two sets of asymptotic critical values are provided: one when all regressors are purely I(1) and the other if they are all purely 1(0). These two sets of critical values provide a band covering all possible classifications of the regressors into purely I(0), purely I(1) or mutually cointegrated. Accordingly, various bounds testing procedures are proposed. It is shown that the proposed tests are consistent, and their asymptotic distribution under the null and suitably defined local alternatives are derived.

A statistically significant increase in non-malignant respiratory disease mortality and non-significant increases in mortality from lymphatic and haematopoietic malignancies other than leukaemia, lung cancer, and chronic renal disease were observed. The excess in lymphatic and haematopoietic cancer mortality was due to an increase in mortality from lymphosarcoma and reticulosarcoma and Hodgkin's disease. Within the category of non-malignant respiratory disease, mortality from emphysema and pneumoconioses and other respiratory disease was increased. Mortality from lung cancer and emphysema was higher among workers hired prior to 1955 when exposures to uranium, silica, and vanadium were presumably higher. Mortality from these causes of death did not increase with employment duration. CONCLUSIONS: Although the observed excesses were consistent with our a priori hypotheses, positive trends with employment duration were not observed.

In theory, location should no longer be a source of competitive advantage. Open global markets, rapid transportation, and high-speed communications should allow any company to source any thing from any place at any time. But in practice, Michael Porter demonstrates, location remains central to competition. Today's economic map of the world is characterized by what Porter calls clusters: critical masses in one place of linked industries and institutions--from suppliers to universities to government agencies--that enjoy unusual competitive success in a particular field. The most famous example are found in Silicon Valley and Hollywood, but clusters dot the world's landscape. Porter explains how clusters affect competition in three broad ways: first, by increasing the productivity of companies based in the area; second, by driving the direction and pace of innovation; and third, by stimulating the formation of new businesses within the cluster. Geographic, cultural, and institutional proximity provides companies with special access, closer relationships, better information, powerful incentives, and other advantages that are difficult to tap from a distance. The more complex, knowledge-based, and dynamic the world economy becomes, the more this is true. Competitive advantage lies increasingly in local things--knowledge, relationships, and motivation--that distant rivals cannot replicate.

The possible association between drinking water U content and cancer risk adjusted for average socio-economic status was evaluated using Poisson regression. Drinking water U content was below 20 [mu]g/L in 458 out of 461 included municipalities. We found a significantly increased risk of leukemia in men in the intermediate (U level, 1.00-4.99 [mu]g/L; relative risk [RR], 1.14) and in the highest U exposure category (U level, {$>$}=5 [mu]g/L; RR, 1.28). Moreover, in women, a significantly elevated risk was identified with respect to kidney cancer in the highest exposure category (RR, 1.16) and with respect to lung cancer in the intermediate exposure category (RR, 1.12). The slightly increased risk of leukemia in men, kidney cancer in women, and lung cancer in women may require further investigation.

The carbon policy literature is loaded with qualitative analysis of the implications or mechanisms of an integrated emissions market across the US, but current quantitative studies do not offer solutions regarding the interactions of coexisting US regional emission markets and other policy instruments. Therefore, this dissertation attempts to answer three fundamental concerns about US carbon policy. The second chapter analyzes the welfare implications of different relative stringencies of cap-setting under a proposed integration of two emissions markets, considering the attributes relevant to each market. The third chapter extends this market integration analysis by adding an intertemporal feature to analyze the consequences of integrating existing emission markets in the US (i.e., California and RGGI). The fourth chapter examines the adverse economic implications of adopting several overlapping carbon policy instruments to regulate carbon emissions in a region. The second and third chapters employ a simple structural model with a stochastic variable to account for uncertainties in emissions. The fourth chapter utilizes a static general equilibrium framework based on IMPLAN data for California to comprehensively evaluate the reactions of the state-wide economy to various carbon policy settings. In general, the results show that integrating existing emissions markets could generate both positive and negative effects on economic welfare. The positive effects result from gains from trading permits, while negative results come from perverse second-best interactions. Policymakers are expected to carefully consider the factors and attributes of all regions prior to setting their policy targets and designing an integrated system of carbon reduction.}, langid = {english}, annotation = {Accepted: 2016-02-05T00:09:35Z}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/Y9I5PGUU/Rahman - 2016 - Economics of subnational carbon policy interaction.pdf} } @misc{ralphcurtis2005, title = {An {{Interview}} with {{Ralph Curtis}}}, author = {{The Colorado Foundation for Water Education}}, namea = {{Ralph Curtis}}, nameatype = {collaborator}, date = {2005-09}, url = {https://issuu.com/cfwe/docs/headwaters9}, urldate = {2024-05-11}, abstract = {Recently retired as manager of the Rio Grande Water Conservation District, Ralph Curtis spent 25 years shepherding the district through water grabs, droughts and aquifer declines.

This paper examines how different countries have engaged in the process of licensing new reactor designs, and demonstrates both similarities and differences between countries. In many cases, designers have emphasized the safer design and deployment features of SMRs and attempted to use those features as reasons to get existing licensing requirements diluted.

This perspective article examines whether these new designs can indeed solve these problems, with a particular focus on the economic challenges. It briefly discusses the technical challenges confronting advanced reactor designs and the many decades it might take for these to be commercialized, if ever. The article explains why the higher construction and operational costs per unit of electricity generation capacity will make electricity from small modular reactors more expensive than electricity from large nuclear power plants, which are themselves not competitive in today's electricity markets. Next, it examines the potential savings from learning and modular construction, and explains why the historical record suggests that these savings will be inadequate to compensate for the economic challenges resulting from the lower generation capacity. It then critically examines arguments offered by advocates of these technologies about job creation and other potential uses of energy generated from these plants to justify subsidizing and constructing these kinds of nuclear plants. It concludes with an assessment of the markets for these technologies, suggesting that these are inadequate to justify constructing the necessary manufacturing facilities.}, eventtitle = {{{IEEE Access}}} } @article{ramberg2012, title = {The {{Weak Tie Between Natural Gas}} and {{Oil Prices}}}, author = {Ramberg, David J. and Parsons, John E.}, date = {2012-04}, journaltitle = {Energy Journal}, volume = {33}, number = {2}, pages = {13--35}, publisher = {International Association for Energy Economics, Inc.}, issn = {01956574}, doi = {10.5547/01956574.33.2.2}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=eih&AN=74482453&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2022-05-08}, abstract = {Several recent studies establish that crude oil and natural gas prices are cointegrated.

First, there is an enormous amount of unexplained volatility in natural gas prices at short horizons. Hence, any simple formulaic relationship between the prices will leave a large portion of the natural gas price unexplained. Second, the cointegrating relationship does not appear to be stable through time. The prices may be tied, but the relationship can shift dramatically over time.

While some measurements of hydraulic head exist, greater spatial and temporal sampling would be very valuable in understanding the behavior of the system. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data provide fine spatial resolution measurements of Earth surface deformation, which can be related to hydraulic head change in the confined aquifer system. However, change in cm-scale crop structure with time leads to signal decorrelation, resulting in low quality data. Here we apply small baseline subset (SBAS) analysis to InSAR data collected from 1992 to 2001. We are able to show high levels of correlation, denoting high quality data, in areas between the center pivot irrigation circles, where the lack of water results in little surface vegetation. At three well locations we see a seasonal variation in the InSAR data that mimics the hydraulic head data. We use measured values of the elastic skeletal storage coefficient to estimate hydraulic head from the InSAR data. In general the magnitude of estimated and measured head agree to within the calculated error. However, the errors are unacceptably large due to both errors in the InSAR data and uncertainty in the measured value of the elastic skeletal storage coefficient.

Results of our study suggest that both oil and gas lead Bitcoin returns from mid 2014 till 2016 across 64–~128~days' period. Under the investment period of 64–~256, hashrate and Bitcoin returns share significant comovement in the presence of oil and natural gas however exhibit no comovement when the effect of coal market is considered.

Used by governments and other decision-makers in benefit–cost analysis for over a decade, SC-CO2 estimates draw on climate science, economics, demography and other disciplines. However, a 2017 report by the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine1 (NASEM) highlighted that current SC-CO2 estimates no longer reflect the latest research. The report provided a series of recommendations for improving the scientific basis, transparency and uncertainty characterization of SC-CO2 estimates. Here we show that improved probabilistic socioeconomic projections, climate models, damage functions, and discounting methods that collectively reflect theoretically consistent valuation of risk, substantially increase estimates of the SC-CO2. Our preferred mean SC-CO2 estimate is \$185\,per tonne of\,CO2 (\$44–\$413\,per tCO2: 5\%–95\% range, 2020 US dollars) at a near-term risk-free discount rate of 2\%, a value 3.6\,times higher than the US government’s current value of \$51\,per tCO2. Our estimates incorporate updated scientific understanding throughout all components of SC-CO2 estimation in the new open-source Greenhouse Gas Impact Value Estimator (GIVE) model, in a manner fully responsive to the near-term NASEM recommendations. Our higher SC-CO2 values, compared with estimates currently used in policy evaluation, substantially increase the estimated benefits of greenhouse gas mitigation and thereby increase the expected net benefits of more stringent climate policies.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Climate-change impacts,Environmental economics,Environmental impact}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/4VN7BUUC/Rennert et al. - 2022 - Comprehensive evidence implies a higher social cos.pdf} } @online{rep.mcmorrisrodgers2023, type = {legislation}, title = {H.{{R}}.1042 - 118th {{Congress}} (2023-2024): {{Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act}}}, shorttitle = {H.{{R}}.1042 - 118th {{Congress}} (2023-2024)}, author = {Rep.

We provide evidence that two important supply-side connections play important roles in understanding crude oil and natural gas market integration. First, crude oil production and natural gas production require a common capital input: rotary drilling rigs. Competition for this capital input should be expected to keep the difference between crude oil and natural gas prices in check. Second, crude oil wells produce associated gas, while natural gas wells often produce associated oil or oil substitutes. This latter supply-side connection could cause divergence in crude oil prices and natural gas prices, because a price shock for one commodity will increase associated production of the other commodity. Understanding which effect dominates at a particular time is essential to understanding oil and gas market integration. We construct a theoretical model based on the profit-maximizing decisions of a drilling-rig allocating firm to delineate the role played by these supply-side factors in oil and gas market integration. If rig competition is the more important supply-side factor then gas-rig allocations and oil prices will be negatively related, and vice versa, while if associated commodity flows are more important then gas-rig allocations and oil prices will be positively related, and vice versa. We then test the predictions of the theoretical model using three econometric methods, and find ample evidence of long-run relationships driven by these supply-side factors. However, we provide evidence indicating that drilling responses to price changes are unstable across time, and drilling rig competition has come to play a more important role since the onset of increasing production from shale gas and tight oil wells, which began in the mid-2000’s.} } @article{rode2015, title = {Motivation Crowding by Economic Incentives in Conservation Policy: {{A}} Review of the Empirical Evidence}, shorttitle = {Motivation Crowding by Economic Incentives in Conservation Policy}, author = {Rode, Julian and Gómez-Baggethun, Erik and Krause, Torsten}, date = {2015-09-01}, journaltitle = {Ecological Economics}, shortjournal = {Ecological Economics}, volume = {117}, pages = {270--282}, issn = {0921-8009}, doi = {10.1016/j.ecolecon.2014.11.019}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921800914003668}, urldate = {2023-07-07}, abstract = {The paper seeks to advance our understanding of the extent to which the use of economic incentives can undermine (“crowd out”) or reinforce (“crowd in”) people's intrinsic motivations to engage in biodiversity and ecosystem conservation.

We note that the limited comparability of results across studies, the lack of baseline information about pre-existing intrinsic motivations, and a complexity stemming from cultural and contextual heterogeneity appear to be the main challenges when it comes to establishing more conclusive evidence.

Therefore, these four firms benefit from the exercise of national power to prevent entry into this market. This paper shows that these firms also benefit from increasing returns to scale.

The LWR–LEU fuel industry is decades old, and (except for the high entry cost of designing and licensing a fuel fabrication facility and its fuel), labor and additional fabrication lines can be added at Nth-of-a-Kind cost to the maximum capacity allowed by a site license. The industry appears to be competitive: nuclear fuel fabrication capacity is assured with many competitors and reasonable prices. However, nuclear fuel assurance has become an important issue for nations now to considering new nuclear power plants. To provide this assurance many proposals equate “nuclear fuel banks” (which would require fuel for specific reactors) with “LEU banks” (where LEU could be blended into nuclear fuel with the proper enrichment) with local fuel fabrication. The policy issues (which are presented, but not answered in this paper) become (1) whether the construction of new nuclear fuel fabrication facilities in new nuclear power nations could lead to the proliferation of nuclear weapons, and (2) whether nuclear fuel quality can be guaranteed under current industry arrangements, given that fuel failure at one reactor can lead to forced shutdowns at many others.}, issue = {3}, langid = {english} } @article{rothwell2014, title = {Sustainability of Light Water Reactor Fuel Cycles}, author = {Rothwell, Geoffrey and Wood, Thomas W. and Daly, Don and Weimar, Mark R.}, date = {2014-12-01}, journaltitle = {Energy Policy}, shortjournal = {Energy Policy}, series = {Nuclear {{Energy}} and {{Sustainable Development}}: {{Selected Topics}}}, volume = {74}, pages = {S16-S23}, issn = {0301-4215}, doi = {10.1016/j.enpol.2014.07.018}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301421514004467}, urldate = {2023-03-07}, abstract = {This paper compares the sustainability of two light water reactor, LWR, fuel cycles: the once-through UOX (low-enriched uranium oxide) cycle and the twice-through MOX (Mixed Uranium-Plutonium Oxide) cycle (increasing the input efficiency of available uranium) by assessing their probable long-term competitiveness.

Aquifer depletion has been shown to affect the rate that groundwater can be extracted from an aquifer. In this paper, we develop an analytical framework that accounts explicitly for the effects of limited instantaneous groundwater extraction rate (well capacity) on a producer's irrigation decisions. We show that limited well capacities can affect the producer’s groundwater use and profit. We draw three important insights from these findings. First, we demonstrate that the price elasticity of demand for groundwater is higher for lower well capacities. Second, farmers’ irrigation decisions are non-monotonic with respect to well capacity and climate conditions. Under a drier climate, producers with greater well capacities increase their groundwater use, and producers with lower well capacities reduce their water use. Third, through numerical analysis, we show that considering spatial heterogeneity in well capacities is important for estimating the cost-effectiveness and distributional impacts of groundwater management policies.

We find that enrollment in the retirement program causes neighboring wells to initially pump less groundwater on average. However, water use reductions are only temporary, due to relative increases in stock levels over time. The results imply that policies that retire water rights may conserve more water than anticipated in the short term, but, over time, higher resource stocks could lead to policy leakage.

On the basis of this analysis, the study also evaluates the feasibility of an Alaska in-state gas pipeline using Monte Carlo simulation techniques. Analysis of pipeline construction costs shows that component costs, shares of cost components, and learning rates for material and labor costs vary by diameter, length, volume, year, and location. Overall average learning rates for pipeline material and labor costs are 6.1\% and 12.4\%, respectively. Overall average cost shares for pipeline material, labor, miscellaneous, and right of way (ROW) are 31\%, 40\%, 23\%, and 7\%, respectively. Regression models are developed to estimate pipeline component costs for different lengths, cross-sectional areas, and locations. An analysis of inaccuracy in pipeline cost estimation demonstrates that the cost estimation of pipeline cost components is biased except for in the case of total costs. Overall overrun rates for pipeline material, labor, miscellaneous, ROW, and total costs are 4.9\%, 22.4\%, -0.9\%, 9.1\%, and 6.5\%, respectively, and project size, capacity, diameter, location, and year of completion have different degrees of impacts on cost overruns of pipeline cost components. Analysis of compressor station costs shows that component costs, shares of cost components, and learning rates for material and labor costs vary in terms of capacity, year, and location. Average learning rates for compressor station material and labor costs are 12.1\% and 7.48\%, respectively. Overall average cost shares of material, labor, miscellaneous, and ROW are 50.6\%, 27.2\%, 21.5\%, and 0.8\%, respectively. Regression models are developed to estimate compressor station component costs in different capacities and locations. An investigation into inaccuracies in compressor station cost estimation demonstrates that the cost estimation for compressor stations is biased except for in the case of material costs. Overall average overrun rates for compressor station material, labor, miscellaneous, land, and total costs are 3\%, 60\%, 2\%, -14\%, and 11\%, respectively, and cost overruns for cost components are influenced by location and year of completion to different degrees. Monte Carlo models are developed and simulated to evaluate the feasibility of an Alaska in-state gas pipeline by assigning triangular distribution of the values of economic parameters. Simulated results show that the construction of an Alaska in-state natural gas pipeline is feasible at three scenarios: 500 million cubic feet per day (mmcfd), 750 mmcfd, and 1000 mmcfd.}, isbn = {9781267189707}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Alaska in-state,Applied sciences,Compress station,Energy,Gas pipeline,Learning curve,Operations research,Petroleum engineering,Pipeline construction costs}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/4YL6JR9X/Rui - Comprehensive investigation into historical pipeli.pdf} } @book{rumble1977, title = {{{CRC}} Handbook of Chemistry and Physics.}, editor = {Rumble, John}, date = {1977}, publisher = {CRC Press}, location = {Cleveland, Ohio}, issn = {0147-6262}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Chemistry,Chemistry$$QChemistry,Physics,Physics$$QPhysics,Tables Periodicals} } @online{ruocco2011, type = {Definition}, title = {Structures, {{Systems}}, and {{Components}} ({{SSCs}}) — {{DOE Directives}}, {{Guidance}}, and {{Delegations}}}, author = {Ruocco, Ashley}, date = {2011-09-09}, url = {https://www.directives.doe.gov/terms_definitions/structures-systems-and-components-sscs}, urldate = {2024-01-09}, langid = {english} } @article{russel2011, entrysubtype = {newspaper}, title = {Huge {{Areva}} Cutbacks May Not Kill 300 of the Firm's {{Idaho}} Jobs | {{The Spokesman-Review}}}, author = {Russel, Betsy}, date = {2011-12-13}, journaltitle = {The Associated Press}, url = {https://www.spokesman.com/blogs/boise/2011/dec/13/huge-areva-cutbacks-may-not-kill-300-firms-idaho-jobs/}, urldate = {2023-06-08} } @article{rust1995, title = {Optimal Response to a Shift in Regulatory Regime: {{The}} Case of the {{US}} Nuclear Power Industry}, shorttitle = {Optimal Response to a Shift in Regulatory Regime}, author = {Rust, John and Rothwell, Geoffrey}, date = {1995-12}, journaltitle = {Journal of Applied Econometrics}, volume = {10}, pages = {75}, publisher = {Wiley Periodicals Inc.}, location = {Chichester, United States}, issn = {08837252}, url = {https://www.proquest.com/docview/218751608?parentSessionId=TiDmUFohgJumXdFYpVyEvGyoH0bOECsySckHEK3yG0c%3D&pq-origsite=primo}, urldate = {2023-03-07}, abstract = {An examination is made of the impact of the March 1979 Three Mile Island (TMI) accident on the regulation of nuclear power plants (NPP) and its consequences for the operating behavior and profitability of the US nuclear power industry.

A novel assumption is that individual users have incomplete knowledge of the speed of lateral flows in the aquifer: although a user is aware that his neighbor's water use has some influence on his future water stock, he is uncertain about the degree of this impact. We find that the lack of information may either increase or decrease the rate of water use and welfare. In a two-period framework, the relevant characteristic is the ratio of the periodic marginal benefits of water use. Depending on whether this ratio is convex or concave, the average speed with which the aquifer is depleted decreases or increases when users learn more about the local hydrologic properties of groundwater. In principle, welfare may decrease even in cases when the groundwater allocation is closer to the efficient groundwater allocation.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Common property resource,Groundwater,Information}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/RXCELV7Y/Saak and Peterson -

The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers.

estimated to investigate sources of variation in empirical estimates of the price elasticity of irrigation water demand. Elasticity estimates are drawn from 24 studies reported in the United States since 1963, including mathematical programming, field experiments, and econometric studies.

Defining the supply curve as a functional relationship between the cumulative quantity of uranium extracted and the cost of extracting the next unit of uranium, we note that a supply curve requires a crustal abundance model plus a correlation between ore grade and extraction cost. Surveying a number of supply curves that appear in the literature, we observe that while estimates vary widely (we observe an order of magnitude difference in forecasts of the quantity of uranium available at \$100/kg U or less), they generally reflect expectations that uranium availability will be significantly greater than the Red Book numbers imply. Furthermore, by comparison with historical data for more than 40 other minerals, we show that the assumption of time invariance when formulating a supply curve is not borne out by experience. In fact, the price of most other minerals has decreased with time as well as with cumulative quantity extracted. Neither the Red Book nor the other supply curves we survey explicitly accounts for the unit-based technological learning that fosters this behavior.}, issue = {3} } @article{schneider2009, title = {Cost Analysis of the {{US}} Spent Nuclear Fuel Reprocessing Facility}, author = {Schneider, E.

The logarithm of the extrapolated price is given by a monotonically increasing trend curve plus a sinusoidal oscillation calibrated to historical data. The trend curve as a function of cumulative extraction of native uranium accounts both for accessing lower ore grades and for exploiting more-difficult-to-access richer ores as the more easily accessed richer ores are depleted. Accounting for both of these effects, the logarithm of the monotonic price trend is linear in the logarithm of cumulative extraction of native uranium, with least variance between observations and data of a power-law slope of 1/4.5 up to the point where a limit on the accessibility of the remaining highest-grade ores is reached. (However, a slope of 1/5.6 gives an almost equally good fit.) As an example, a ratio 4 of maximum depth of other mines to maximum depth of current uranium mines is used as a measure of the accessibility limit. This limit is first reached when the background trend curve uranium price reaches \textbackslash 143/kg of elemental uranium, in U.S. dollars inflation adjusted to year 2007 prices (\textbackslash US2007). Thereafter, the accessibility limit gradually reduces the cumulative amount of native uranium extracted at a given cost below that computed from the power law, multiplying it by a factor of 0.59 when the trend price reaches 300 \$US2007/kg. Increases of nuclear energy produced per kilogram of uranium mined with increasing uranium costs are also accounted for. A fraction of global nuclear energy users can develop a higher nuclear energy production rate per kilogram of mined uranium, e.g., by reusing the fissile material in spent fuel. Resulting cumulative cost changes as a function of cumulative nuclear energy use are presented in graphical and tabular form for a variety of input parameters.}, issue = {2} } @article{singer2013, title = {U.{{S}}.

It includes that part of the South Platte River valley between Denver and Kuner, Colo., all of Beebe Draw, and the lower part of the valley of Box Elder Creek. The stream-valley lowlands are separated by rolling uplands. The climate is semiarid, the normal annual precipitation being about 13 inches; thus, irrigation is essential for stable agricultural development. The area contains about 220,000 acres of irrigated land in the stream valleys. Most of the remaining 400,000 acres of land is used for dry farming or grazing because it lacks irrigation water. Most of the lowlands were brought under irrigation with surface water during the early 1900's, and now nearly all the surface water in the area is appropriated for irrigation within and downstream from the area. Because the natural flow of the streams is sometimes less than the demand for water, ground water is used to supplement the surface-water supply. Wells, drilled chiefly since 1930, supply the supplemental water and in some places are the sole supply for irrigation use. Rocks exposed in the area are of sedimentary origin and range in age from Lato Cretaceous to Recent. Those that are consolidated, called 'bedrock' in this report, consist of the Fox Hills sandstone and the Laramie and Arapahoe formations, all of Late Cretaceous age, and the Denver formation and Dawson arkose of Late Cretaceous and Tertiary age. The surface of the bedrock was shaped by ancestral streams, the valleys of which are reflected by the present surface topography. Dune sand, slope wash, and thin upland deposits of Quaternary age mantle the bedrock in the divide areas, and stream deposits ranging in thickness from 0 to about 125 feet partly fill the ancestral valleys. The valley-fill deposits consist of beds and lenses of clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, and boulders. Abundant supplies of ground water for irrigation, municipal, and industrial use are obtained in the principal stream valleys from wells tapping valley-fill deposits beneath the flood plain and bordering terraces. Many domestic and stock wells obtain water from the unconsolidated deposits both on the uplands and in the valleys. The ground water in the valley-fill deposits generally is unconfined but in a few places is under slight artesian pressure. The bedrock formations yield small to moderate supplies of water to municipal, industrial, domestic, and stock wells, but the yields are not sufficient for irrigation.

Hydrogen is a dynamic fuel that can be used across all industrial sectors to lower carbon intensity. This study, therefore, aims at estimating the cost of nuclear hydrogen production from some light water reactors using International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Hydrogen Calculator (HydCalc) program and comparing the result with similar existing studies conducted by other scholars using the Hydrogen Economic Evaluation Program (HEEP) program. The study employs six existing Light Water Reactors (LWRs) comprised of Korea Advanced Power Reactor 1400~MW electricity (APR1400), Russian VVER-1200, Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant in Ohio, Prairie Island NPP in Minnesota, Nine Mile Point NPP in New York, and Arizona Public Service's Palo Verde NPP to evaluate the Levelized cost of nuclear hydrogen production. Estimation of hydrogen demand was performed without carbon dioxide (CO2) tax since nuclear power has zero CO2 emission. The Levelized costs obtained using IAEA HydCalc and HEEP Programme were compared as follows; APR1400 cost are 2.6\$/kg and 3.18\$/kg, VVER1200 cost are 3.8\$/kg and 3.44\$/kg; Exelon cost are 1.7\$/kg and 4.85\$/kg; Davis Besse cost are 3.9\$/kg and 3.09\$/kg; Parlo Verde cost are 3.5\$/kg and 4.77\$/kg; Xcel Energy cost are 3.63\$/kg and 0.69\$/kg. The cost of hydrogen production using HEEP for Xcel Energy's Prairie Island NPP is 0.69 \$/kg. This is because the reactor utilizes High Temperature Steam Electrolysis, method of hydrogen production, while the other methods employs Low Temperature Electrolysis.

Niger, which is the fourth-largest producer of uranium in the world, has been dealing with uranium price fluctuations since the start of its production in 1972. Since 2011, Niger is also an oil-exporting country. However, Niger is still one of the poorest countries in the world, and policymakers are keen on learning the impact of natural resource revenue on the economy. Policymakers are particularly interested in knowing whether uranium export has been a curse instead of a blessing. As such, the present study seeks to analyze, empirically, the impact of uranium price fluctuations on key macroeconomic variables in Niger. More precisely, the objective of this article is to document the existence of Dutch “disease” or lack thereof in the economy. The study uses VAR and VECM methodologies and utilizes Granger causality tests, variance decomposition, and impulse response functions to guide the analysis. These approaches allow for an empirical deeper dive into the impact of the uranium sector on the economy. The article uses annual time series data covering the period from 1977 to 2015. The data comes from three main sources, including the World Development Indicators (WDI) database, the Central Bank of West African Countries dataset (EDEN), and Niger’s National Institute of Statistics (INS) dataset. The results show that Niger’s economy suffered from Dutch disease from uranium export. Indeed, the Granger causality tests show that uranium export revenue cannot be used to forecast real income in Niger. Furthermore, impulse response functions confirm the above result as a shock to uranium price and the resultant effects on money supply, inflation, and the real exchange rate is consistent with the Dutch “disease” theory. In general, uranium export revenue was the source of macroeconomic imbalances observed in the country during the period considered by the study.

Nevertheless, environmental control is a significant challenge in rare earth extraction processes. This study was conducted to contribute to the limited information on removing thorium and uranium from rare earths while coal-based products are used as feedstock. The laboratory studies suggested that the selective precipitation and solvent extraction approach yields the most favorable separation performance. Complete thorium precipitation was achieved around a pH value of 4.8. Due to the close precipitation pH ranges of uranium and rare earths, further separation by solvent extraction was applied to achieve an enhanced separation. Based on a Box-Behnken experimental design, the effect of extractant concentration, pH, strippant concentration, and O/A ratio was investigated. Best separation performance was achieved using 50~v\% TBP at a pH of 3.5 with an O/A ratio of 3 and 1~mol/L H2SO4, which resulted in 1.8\% uranium and 73.4\% rare earth extraction. The extraction and precipitation behavior of the elements were further assessed with the distribution ratio, separation factor, thermodynamic parameters, and species distribution diagrams to provide a thorough understanding of the separation mechanisms. The results were statistically analyzed, and a model was developed to predict uranium recovery. The developed experimental protocol was validated using a rare earth oxalate sample produced at the pilot-scale processing facility. Finally, a conceptual process flowsheet was developed to effectively separate radionuclides while producing rare earth oxide products.}, issue = {5}, keywords = {coal,fundamental studies,process development,Rare earth elements,thorium and uranium separation} } @online{taxfoundation2021, title = {Location-{{Matters-2021-The-State-Tax-Costs-of-Doing-Business1}}.Pdf}, author = {{Tax Foundation}}, date = {2021}, url = {https://files.taxfoundation.org/20210510134130/Location-Matters-2021-The-State-Tax-Costs-of-Doing-Business1.pdf?_gl=1*j90cuf*_ga*MzU0NTY0NjY3LjE3MDAxNzU4MjY.*_ga_FP7KWDV08V*MTcwMDE3NTgyNS4xLjEuMTcwMDE3NTk2My42MC4wLjA.}, urldate = {2023-11-16} } @article{taylor, title = {Review of {{Environmental Impacts}} of the {{Acid In-situ Leach Uranium Mining Process}}}, author = {Taylor, Graham and Farrington, Vic and Woods, Peter and Ring, Robert and Molloy, Robert}, langid = {english} } @book{taylor1979, title = {Yellowcake: The International Uranium Cartel}, shorttitle = {Yellowcake}, author = {Taylor, June and Yokell, Michael}, date = {1979-01-01}, publisher = {Pergamon Policy Studies}, location = {Fairview Park, Elmsford, New York}, url = {http://archive.org/details/yellowcakeintern0000tayl}, urldate = {2024-06-10}, abstract = {The dramatic events that occurred in the uranium market between 1972 and 1976, and their repercussions is discussed.

However, home radon, a ubiquitous radiotoxin, has been seldom studied in this context. In the present study, we investigated the degree to which chronic everyday home radon exposure was associated with alterations in transdiagnostic mental health outcomes. Methods A total of 59 children and adolescents ages 6- to 14-years-old (M\,=\,10.47\,years, SD\,=\,2.58; 28 males) completed the study. Parents completed questionnaires detailing aspects of attention and executive function. We used a principal components analysis to derive three domains of neuropsychological functioning: 1) task-based executive function skills, 2) self-and emotion-regulation abilities, and 3) inhibitory control. Additionally, parents completed a home radon test kit and provided information on how long their child had lived in the tested home. We computed a radon exposure index per person based on the duration of time that the child had lived in the home and their measured home radon concentration. Youths were divided into terciles based on their radon exposure index score. Using a MANCOVA design, we determined whether there were differences in neuropsychological domain scores across the three groups, controlling for age, sex, and socioeconomic status. Results There was a significant multivariate effect of radon group on neuropsychological dysfunction (λ\,=\,0.77, F\,=\,2.32, p\,=\,0.038, ηp2\,=\,0.12). Examination of univariate effects revealed specific increases in self-and emotion-regulation dysfunction among the youths with the greatest degree of chronic home radon exposure (F\,=\,7.21, p\,=\,0.002, ηp2\,=\,0.21). There were no significant differences by group in the other tested domains. Discussion The data suggest potential specificity in the neurotoxic effects of everyday home radon exposure in developing youths, with significant aberrations in self-and emotion-regulation faculties. These findings support the need for better public awareness and public health policy surrounding home radon safety and mitigation strategies.}, pmcid = {PMC10925658}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/KNKTHD7G/Taylor et al. - 2024 - Effects of chronic home radon exposure on cognitiv.pdf} } @article{taylora, title = {Review of {{Environmental Impacts}} of the {{Acid In-situ Leach Uranium Mining Process}}}, author = {Taylor, Graham and Farrington, Vic and Woods, Peter and Ring, Robert and Molloy, Robert}, langid = {english} } @article{taylorb, title = {Review of {{Environmental Impacts}} of the {{Acid In-situ Leach Uranium Mining Process}}}, author = {Taylor, Graham and Farrington, Vic and Woods, Peter and Ring, Robert and Molloy, Robert}, langid = {english} } @article{temte, title = {Wyoming {{Severance Taxes}} and {{Federal Mineral Royalties}}:}, author = {Temte, Dean}, langid = {english} } @article{temtea, title = {Wyoming {{Severance Taxes}} and {{Federal Mineral Royalties}}:}, author = {Temte, Dean}, langid = {english} } @article{temteb, title = {Wyoming {{Severance Taxes}} and {{Federal Mineral Royalties}}:}, author = {Temte, Dean}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/EFLSJ6VW/Temte - Wyoming Severance Taxes and Federal Mineral Royalt.pdf} } @online{terrapower2023, title = {{{TerraPower Purchases Land}} in {{Kemmerer}}, {{Wyoming}} for {{Natrium Reactor Demonstration Project}}}, author = {{TerraPower}}, date = {2023-08-16T14:00:42+00:00}, url = {https://www.terrapower.com/terrapower-purchases-land-in-kemmerer-wyoming-for-natrium-reactor-demonstration-project/}, urldate = {2023-08-28}, abstract = {TerraPower announced today the purchase of land in Kemmerer, Wyoming where the Natrium Reactor Demonstration Project will be built.}, langid = {american}, organization = {TerraPower} } @online{theaustralianatomicenergycommission2020, title = {What Are Small Modular Reactors and What Makes Them Different? | {{ANSTO}}}, shorttitle = {What Are Small Modular Reactors and What Makes Them Different?}, author = {{The Australian Atomic Energy Commission}}, date = {2020-07-07}, url = {https://www.ansto.gov.au/news/what-are-small-modular-reactors-and-what-makes-them-different}, urldate = {2024-01-10}, abstract = {There has been considerable public discussion about small modular reactors as the newest, most innovative and versatile nuclear power solution that many countries around the world are interested in adopting.}, langid = {english} } @online{thedenverposteditorialboard2024, title = {Editorial: {{Threat}} of Uranium Mine in Gated {{Colorado}} Neighborhood Drives Home Risk of Split Estates}, shorttitle = {Editorial}, author = {{The Denver Post Editorial Board}}, date = {2024-01-25T12:09:46+00:00}, url = {https://www.denverpost.com/2024/01/25/split-mineral-rights-colorado-uranium-mining/}, urldate = {2024-01-26}, abstract = {South T Bar Ranch is a cautionary tale for Coloradans.

The newest set of large reactor projects have also been overbudget and overtime. This has prompted interest in new reactor technologies that proponents claim would not suffer these problems, specifically small modular reactors (SMRs), a class that encompasses a wide range of technologies. This article examines national efforts in three countries, Canada, the UK, and the United States, which are pursuing SMRs vigorously and where the government has funded their development generously. We compare the different strategies and foci of these national strategies, analyzing the various forms of support offered by the separate agencies of the government, and the private companies that are trying to develop SMRs. We also offer an overview of the different types of reactor technologies being pursued in these different countries. Following these, we outline the main challenge confronting SMR technologies: their ability to generate electricity in an economically competitive manner, highlighting the problems resulting from economies of scale being lost. By examining the experience so far, we find that even designs based on well-tested technology cannot be deployed till after 2030 and the more radical designs might never be.

Most communities in the area depend upon groundwater for all water uses. Some of the highest-grade uranium ore in the United States also is found in the Grand Canyon region. A withdrawal of over 4000~km2 of Federal land in the Grand Canyon region from new uranium mining activities for 20~years was instituted in 2012, owing in part to a lack of scientific data on potential effects from uranium mining on water resources in the area. The U.S. Geological Survey has collected groundwater chemistry samples since 1981 in the Grand Canyon region to better understand the current state of groundwater quality, to monitor for changes in groundwater quality that may be the result of mining activities, and to identify "hot spots" with elevated metal concentrations and investigate the causes. This manuscript presents results for the assessment of uranium in groundwater in the Grand Canyon region. Analytical results for uranium in groundwater in the Grand Canyon region were available for 573 samples collected from 180 spring sites and 26 wells from September 1, 1981 to October 7, 2020. Samples were collected from springs issuing from stratigraphic units above, within, and below the Permian strata that host uranium ore in breccia pipes in the area. Maximum uranium concentrations at groundwater sites in the region ranged from less than 1~µg/L at 23 sites (11\%) to 100~µg/L or more at 4 sites (2\%). Of the 206 groundwater sites sampled, 195 sites (95\%) had maximum observed uranium concentrations less than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Maximum Contaminant Level of 30~µg/L for drinking water and 177 sites (86\%) had uranium concentrations less than the 15~µg/L Canadian benchmark for protection of aquatic life in freshwater. The establishment of baseline groundwater quality is an important first step in monitoring for change in water chemistry throughout mining lifecycles and beyond to ensure the health of these critical groundwater resources.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Environmental sciences,Hydrology}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/VV9F8ZIR/Tillman et al. - 2021 - An assessment of uranium in groundwater in the Gra.pdf} } @article{toews2015, title = {The {{Relationship Between Oil Price}} and {{Costs}} in the {{Oil Industry}}}, author = {Toews, Gerhard and Naumov, Alexander}, date = {2015-01-02}, journaltitle = {Energy Journal}, volume = {36}, pages = {237--254}, publisher = {International Association for Energy Economics, Inc.}, issn = {01956574}, doi = {10.5547/01956574.36.SI1.gtoe}, url = {https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=eih&AN=117075525&site=ehost-live}, urldate = {2022-05-09}, abstract = {We propose a simple structural model of the upstream sector in the oil industry to study the determinants of costs with a focus on its relationship with the price of oil.

It can also represent the buying habits of urban consumers. This particular index includes roughly 88 percent of the total population, accounting for wage earners, clerical workers, technical workers, self-employed, short-term workers, unemployed, retirees, and those not in the labor force. The CPIs are based on prices for food, clothing, shelter, and fuels; transportation fares; service fees (e.g., water and sewer service); and sales taxes.

However, it can be very useful to look at the seasonally adjusted CPI, which removes the effects of seasonal changes, such as weather, school year, production cycles, and holidays. The CPI can be used to recognize periods of inflation and deflation. Significant increases in the CPI within a short time frame might indicate a period of inflation, and significant decreases in CPI within a short time frame might indicate a period of deflation.

A systems approach is taken. The assessment includes i) reviewing past recovery experience and lessons learned; ii) identifying factors that determine recovery; and iii) establishing a contemporary evaluation of U endowments in phosphate rock reserves, as well as the available and recoverable amounts from phosphate rock and phosphoric acid production. We find that in the past, recovery did not fulfill its potential and that the breakup of the Soviet Union worsened then-favorable recovery market conditions in the 1990s. We find that an estimated 5.7milliontU may be recoverable from phosphate rock reserves. In 2010, the recoverable tU from phosphate rock and phosphoric acid production may have been 15,000tU and 11,000tU, respectively. This could have filled the world U supply-demand gap for nuclear energy production. The results suggest that the U.S., Morocco, Tunisia, and Russia would be particularly well-suited to recover U, taking infrastructural considerations into account. We demonstrate future research needs, as well as sustainability orientations. We conclude that in order to promote investment and production, it seems necessary to establish long-term contracts at guaranteed prices, ensuring profitability for phosphoric acid producers.}, keywords = {Energy security,Environmental pollution,Food security,Phosphorus,Resources conservation,Uranium} } @book{unitedstatesarmycorpsofengineersmanhattandistrict2013, title = {Manhattan {{District}} History.}, author = {{United States Army Corps of Engineers Manhattan District} and {United States Department of Energy Office of History and Heritage Resources}}, date = {2013}, publisher = {{U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Classification, Office of History and Heritage Resources}}, location = {Washington, District of Columbia}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Atomic bomb,History,Manhattan Project (U.S.),Nuclear weapons,United States,United States Army Corps of Engineers Manhattan District} } @dataset{unitedstatesbureauoflaborstatistics2023, title = {Consumer {{Price Index}} ({{CPI}}) {{Databases}}}, author = {{United States Bureau of Labor Statistics}}, date = {2023-09-01}, url = {https://www.bls.gov/cpi/data.htm}, urldate = {2023-09-11}, abstract = {Consumer Price Index (CPI)}, langid = {english} } @book{unitedstatescongresshousecommitteeonirrigationandreclamation1937, title = {Colorado-{{Big Thompson Transmountain Water-Diversion Project}}: Hearings before the {{United States House Committee}} on {{Irrigation}} and {{Reclamation}}, {{Seventy-Fifth Congress}}, First Session, on {{June}} 30, {{July}} 2, 1937.}, shorttitle = {Colorado-{{Big Thompson Transmountain Water-Diversion Project}}}, author = {{United States Congress House Committee on Irrigation and Reclamation}}, date = {1937}, publisher = {USGovernment Printing Office}, location = {Washington}, abstract = {Considers (75) H.R. 7680, (75) S. 2086, (75) S. 2681.}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Big Thompson River (Colo.),Big Thompson River Watershed (Colo.),Colorado River (Colo.-Mexico),Colorado-Big Thompson Project (U.S.),Water diversion}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/2S4KLDDZ/United States Congress House Committee on Irrigation and Reclamation - 1937 - Colorado-Big Thompson Transmountain Water-Diversio.pdf;/home/alex/Zotero/storage/PMSS2NF6/United States Congress House Committee on Irrigation and Reclamation - 1937 - Colorado-Big Thompson Transmountain Water-Diversio.pdf} } @dataset{unitedstatesdepartmentofagriculture2012, author = {{United States Department of Agriculture}}, date = {2012} } @misc{unitedstatesdepartmentofagriculture2012a, title = {Potatoes 2012 {{Summary}} 09/19/2013}, author = {{United States Department of Agriculture}}, date = {2012}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/NHDRVKA2/2012 - Potatoes 2012 Summary 09192013.pdf} } @misc{unitedstatesdepartmentofagriculture2020, title = {Average {{U}}.{{S}}.

This work evaluates the potential for SMRs in the US, develops a robust techno-economic assessment of SMRs, and leverages the model to evaluate US regulatory fees structures. Modeling includes capital expenses of a factory facility and capital and operational expenses with multiple scenarios explored through a component-level capital cost model. Policy regarding the licensing and regulation of SMRs is under development with proposed annual US regulatory fees evaluated through the developed techno-economic model.

For purposes of comparison, brief information on the regulatory environment in Canada and Colorado are included (Boxes 7.1, 7.2). These two examples are noted here because they are situations where there has been ongoing and recent development of laws and regulations applicable to uranium mining, processing, reclamation, and long-term stewardship. While the committee considers that neither constitutes an ideal model regulatory environment, both illustrate the ongoing evolution of a regulatory environment that either recognizes or drives the continuing development of best practices in the industry.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/UIC85MD5/NBK201051.html} } @book{vonmises1963, title = {Human Action: A Treatise on Economics}, shorttitle = {Human Action}, author = {Von Mises, Ludwig}, date = {1963}, edition = {[Scholar's ed.].}, publisher = {Ludwig Von Mises Institute}, location = {Auburn, Ala}, isbn = {978-0-945466-24-6}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Commerce,Economics} } @article{waggoner2021, entrysubtype = {newspaper}, title = {All Eyes Are on {{Subdistrict No}}. 1: {{Will San Luis Valley}} Farmers Save Their Aquifer — and Themselves?}, author = {Waggoner, Priscilla}, date = {2021-12-10}, journaltitle = {Center Post Dispatch}, url = {https://centerpostdispatch.com/article/all-eyes-are-on-subdistrict-no-1}, urldate = {2024-05-09}, abstract = {ALAMOSA — From her family’s farm near Mosca, Erin Nissen can see the Great Sand Dunes in the distance.

In this study, surface waters in the region were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) for the concentrations of uranium (U), thorium (Th), and non-radioactive metals (Fe, Mn, Mg, Li, Co, Cu, Ni, and Zn). Results showed highly elevated concentrations of the studied radionuclides and metals in the discharged effluents and the tailing seepage of the U mining/milling sites. Radionuclide and heavy metal concentrations were also observed to be overall enhanced in the recipient stream that collected the discharged effluents from the industrial site, compared to the control streams, and rivers with no impacts from the U mining/milling sites. They displayed significant spatial variations and a general decrease downstream away from upper point-source discharges of the industrial site. In addition, obvious positive correlations were found between U and Th, Fe, Zn, Li, and Co (R2 {$>$} 0.93, n = 28) in the studied water samples, which suggest for an identical source and transport pathway of these elements. In combination with present surface water chemistry and chemical compositions of uraniferous minerals, the elevation of the analyzed elements in the recipient stream most likely arose from the liquid effluents, processing water, and acid drainage from the U mining/milling facilities. The dispersion of radionuclides and hazardous metals is actually limited to a small area at present, but some potential risk should not be negligible for local ecosystem. The results indicate that environmental remediation work is required to implement and future cleaner production technology should be oriented to avoid wide dispersion of radioactivity and non-radioactive hazards in U mining/milling sites.}, issue = {12}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Heavy metal,Radionuclide,Water pollution} } @article{wang2017, title = {Patterns and {{Features}} of {{Global Uranium Resources}} and {{Production}}}, author = {Wang, Feifei and Song, Zisheng and Cheng, Xianghu and Huanhuan, M.

Due to low carbon and mature technology, nuclear energy has become the focus of scholars. The development of nuclear energy is inseparable from the support of uranium resources. Due to the geographically uneven distribution of uranium resources, the flow of resources across the globe satisfies both supply and demand. Therefore, research on the characteristics of the global uranium resource trade and its evolution trends can provide a reference for decisionmakers to formulate relevant uranium resource trade policies to ensure the security of the national uranium resource trade. Based on the perspective of the industry chain, this paper constructed an upstream natural uranium trade complex network (upstream) and an enriched uranium trade complex network (downstream) to analyze the characteristics and evolution trends of GURTNs at the global, community, and national levels. The results show that: (1) The trade of enriched uranium is mainly concentrated between developed countries such as European and North American countries. Natural uranium is a raw material, and its trade characteristics are greatly affected by uranium price fluctuations. (2) The evolution of the global natural uranium trade community is dominated by the significant uranium-resource-demanding countries. The global natural uranium trade pattern will be difficult to change in the short term. (3) With the expiration of the USA–Russia enriched uranium trade agreement, this will become an uncertain factor affecting the evolution of the global enriched uranium trade pattern. (4) Since the United States and France are deeply involved in the global uranium resources trade, both have a higher ability of anti-control and control in GURTNs, which is inseparable from the uranium resource trade strategies of the two countries.

Approximately one third of Wyoming’s total production came from deposits in, or immediately adjacent to, the Wyoming Landscape Conservation Initiative (WLCI) study area in the southwestern corner of the state including all of Carbon, Lincoln, Sublette, Sweetwater, Uinta, and parts of southern Fremont Counties. Conventional open-pit and underground mining methods were employed in the study area until the early 1990s. Since the early 1990s, all uranium mining has been by in-situ recovery (also called in-situ leach). It is estimated that statewide remaining resources of 141,000 tonnes of uranium are about twice the 84,000 tonnes of uranium that the state has already produced. An evaluation of the mineral commodities present in the WLCI study area that may have a role in the development of southwest Wyoming includes uranium. The WLCI study area contains five uranium mineralized areas: Ketchum Buttes, Poison Basin, Shirley Basin, the southern part of Crooks Gap–Green Mountain, and most of Great Divide Basin. Mineralized areas described in the report and outlined on an accompanying map are based on the presence of either contiguous claim blocks, continuous mineralization adjacent to prospective uranium properties, suggestions of mineralization based on site entries in the U.S. Geological Survey’s Mineral Resources Data System (MRDS), or extension of geologic host units or structures.

The ISR process alters the geochemical conditions in the subsurface creating conditions that are more favorable to the migration of uranium and other metals associated with the uranium deposit. There is a lack of clear understanding of the impact of ISR mining on the aquifer and host rocks of the post-mined site and the fate of residual U and other metals within the mined ore zone. We performed detailed petrographic, mineralogical, and geochemical analyses of several samples taken from about 7m of core of the formerly the ISR-mined Smith Ranch–Highland uranium deposit in Wyoming. We show that previously mined cores contain significant residual uranium (U) present as coatings on pyrite and carbonaceous fragments. Coffinite was identified in three samples. Core samples with higher organic ({$>$}1wt.\%) and clay ({$>$}6–17wt.\%) contents yielded higher 234U/238U activity ratios (1.0–1.48) than those with lower organic and clay fractions. The ISR mining was inefficient in mobilizing U from the carbonaceous materials, which retained considerable U concentrations (374–11,534ppm). This is in contrast with the deeper part of the ore zone, which was highly depleted in U and had very low 234U/238U activity ratios. This probably is due to greater contact with the lixiviant (leaching solution) during ISR mining. EXAFS analyses performed on grains with the highest U and Fe concentrations reveal that Fe is present in a reduced form as pyrite and U occurs mostly as U(IV) complexed by organic matter or as U(IV) phases of carbonate complexes. Moreover, U–O distances of \textasciitilde 2.05Å were noted, indicating the potential formation of other poorly defined U(IV/VI) species. We also noted a small contribution from UO at 1.79Å, which indicates that U is partially oxidized. There is no apparent U–S or U–Fe interaction in any of the U spectra analyzed. However, SEM analysis of thin sections prepared from the same core material reveals surficial U associated with pyrite which is probably a minor fraction of the total U present as thin coatings on the surface of pyrite. Our data show the presence of different structurally variable uranium forms associated with the mined cores. U associated with carbonaceous materials is probably from the original U mobilization that accumulated in the organic matter-rich areas under reducing conditions during shallow burial diagenesis. U associated with pyrite represents a small fraction of the total U and was likely deposited as a result of chemical reduction by pyrite. Our data suggest that areas rich in carbonaceous materials had limited exposure to the lixiviant solution, continue to be reducing, and still hold significant U resources. Because of their limited access to fluid flow, these areas might not contribute significantly to post-mining U release or attenuation. Areas with pyrite that are accessible to fluids seem to be more reactive and could act as reductants and facilitate U reduction and accumulation, limiting its migration.}, keywords = {Carbonaceous,Post-mining,Pyrite,recovery (ISR),Restoration,Uranium} } @book{wooldridge2019, title = {Introductory {{Econometrics}}: {{A Modern Approach}}}, shorttitle = {Introductory {{Econometrics}}}, author = {Wooldridge, Jeffrey M.}, date = {2019-01-04}, eprint = {0p9_tQEACAAJ}, eprinttype = {googlebooks}, publisher = {Cengage Learning}, abstract = {Gain an understanding of how econometrics can answer today's questions in business, policy evaluation and forecasting with Wooldridge's INTRODUCTORY ECONOMETRICS: A MODERN APPROACH, 7E.

A high uranium adsorption capacity of 17.57 mg-U per g-adsorbent in natural seawater and ultra-long service life of at least 30 cycles were obtained, which are the highest values among currently available adsorbents to our knowledge. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) fits and density functional theory (DFT) computational studies suggest that PAO-bound uranyl is a cooperative chelating model. More importantly, uranium production costs could be reduced to \$80.70–86.25 per kg of uranium with this fiber, which is similar to the uranium spot price of \$86.68 per kg of uranium and lower than the costs of all currently available adsorbents. The exceptional durability of the AO-OpNpNc fibers suggests the possibility of economically producing nuclear fuel from the ocean.}, issue = {42}, langid = {english} } @article{xu2023, title = {Forecasting Stock Closing Prices with an Application to Airline Company Data}, author = {Xu, Xu and Zhang, Yixiang and McGrory, Clare Anne and Wu, Jinran and Wang, You-Gan}, date = {2023-12-01}, journaltitle = {Data Science and Management}, shortjournal = {Data Science and Management}, volume = {6}, number = {4}, pages = {239--246}, issn = {2666-7649}, doi = {10.1016/j.dsm.2023.09.005}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666764923000437}, urldate = {2024-05-14}, abstract = {Forecasting stock market movements is a challenging task from the practitioners’ point of view. We explore how model selection via the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) approach can be better used to forecast stock closing prices using real-world datasets of daily stock closing prices of three major international airlines. Combining the LASSO method with multiple external data sources in our model leads to a robust and efficient method to predict stock behavior. We also compare our approach with ridge, tree, and support vector machine regressions, as well as neural network approaches to model the data. We include lags of each external variable and response variable in the model, resulting in a total of 870 predictor variables. The empirical results indicate that the LASSO-fitted model is the most effective when compared to other approaches we consider. The results show that the closing price of an airline stock is affected by its closing price for the previous days and those of other types of airlines and is significantly correlated with the Shanghai Composite Index for the previous day and 3 days prior. Other influencing factors include the positive impact of the Shanghai Composite Index daily share volume, the negative impact of loan interest rates, the amount of highway passenger and railway freight turnover, etc.}, keywords = {Chinese airlines,Forecasting,LASSO,Ridge regression,Support vector machine regression}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/WCBRM538/S2666764923000437.html} } @article{yang2003, title = {Water Scarcity, Pricing Mechanism and Institutional Reform in Northern {{China}} Irrigated Agriculture}, author = {Yang, Hong and Zhang, Xiaohe and Zehnder, Alexander J.B.}, date = {2003-06}, journaltitle = {Agricultural Water Management}, shortjournal = {Agricultural Water Management}, volume = {61}, number = {2}, pages = {143--161}, issn = {03783774}, doi = {10.1016/S0378-3774(02)00164-6}, url = {https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0378377402001646}, urldate = {2023-07-24}, abstract = {With water scarcity becoming an increasing constraint to food production in northern China, pricing mechanism has been given a high priority in dealing with the problem.

Since the adsorption of U in groundwater by aquifer media influences the migration scope of U, understanding the U adsorption by aquifer media is of great significance for accurately predicting the influencing scope of ISL uranium mines on groundwater. This study collected sandstone samples from the ore-bearing aquifer outside a typical mining area in a uranium mine exploited using the acid ISL (AISL) technology (also referred to as an AISL uranium mine) in northern China. Using these sandstone samples, this study conducted batch adsorption experiments and column experiments of U to reveal the characteristics and major influencing factors of U adsorption under different conditions. The results show that the adsorption of U by sandstones in the ore-bearing aquifer outside a mining area satisfies the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and the linear isothermal adsorption model. In the batch U adsorption experiments, the adsorption efficiency and capacity for U reached maxima of 77.45\% and 0.069~mg/g at pH 7, respectively. As shown by column experiments, the sandstones showed a significant increase in the U adsorption and retardation as pH increased. The SO42− concentration has minor effects on U adsorption under experimental conditions. Sandstones from different monitoring wells exhibited different U adsorption characteristics. Sandstone cores with relatively high contents of clay minerals such as illite showed strong U adsorption. Under the same experimental conditions, the U distribution coefficient Kd (6.91\,×\,10–2 L/g) obtained from column experiments is much less than that (0.14 L/g) obtained from the batch U adsorption experiments. These results suggest that it is necessary to take into account the U adsorption and retardation by aquifer media in predicting the impacts of ISL uranium mines on the groundwater environment.}, issue = {22}, langid = {english}, keywords = {Adsorption,Distribution coefficient,Groundwater,In situ leach,Uranium} } @article{yasuda2005, title = {Firm {{Growth}}, {{Size}}, {{Age}} and {{Behavior}} in {{Japanese Manufacturing}}}, author = {Yasuda, Takehiko}, date = {2005-01-01}, journaltitle = {Small Business Economics}, shortjournal = {Small Bus Econ}, volume = {24}, number = {1}, pages = {1--15}, issn = {1573-0913}, doi = {10.1007/s11187-005-7568-y}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/s11187-005-7568-y}, urldate = {2023-11-28}, abstract = {This paper investigates the relationship between firm growth and firm size, firm age and firm behavior, such as R\&D activity and subcontracting, based on the data of nearly 14,000 Japanese manufacturing firms. “The stylized facts” that firm size and age have a negative effect on firm growth are confirmed in the case of Japanese manufacturing firms. Also, a firm’s survivability rises with its size and age. R\&D expenditure per employee has a significant positive effect on firm growth, which justifies the argument made by Hall (1987). Although subcontracting to only one company has no significant effect on firm growth, it has a significant positive effect on a firm’s survivability. In addition, subcon-tracting firms depending on only one company as a customer are subject to no significant age effects.

Usually the greatest issue is the chemical condition of the ore bearing aquifer following the completion of leaching.

This paper provides ground water monitoring data from 1985 to 1997 following completion of leaching at the Irkol uranium deposit, Kazakhstan. It shows the evolution of the pH, and other chemical parameters over this period.

Government programs in the form of payment for environmental services (PES) have been introduced to encourage BMP adoption for watershed protection. However, the voluntary nature of these programs makes landowners’ decision to participate in them critical to achieving program goals. Understanding the drivers behind landowners’ decisions to participate in watershed protection programs is essential for designing effective and efficient programs. This study examines agricultural landowners’ decisions to participate in a conservation program involving filter strips. Using responses from a survey of agricultural landowners in Michigan's Saginaw Bay watershed, the study examines key programmatic, socio-psychological, and demographic determinants of landowners’ participation decisions.

Though the help pages for the individual methods describes each method and how they can be used, this vignette provides a broad overview of the available matching methods and their associated options. The choice of matching method depends on the goals of the analysis (e.g., the estimand, whether low bias or high precision is important) and the unique qualities of each dataset to be analyzed, so there is no single optimal choice for any given analysis. A benefit of nonparametric preprocessing through matching is that a number of matching methods can be tried and their quality assessed without consulting the outcome, reducing the possibility of capitalizing on chance while allowing for the benefits of an exploratory analysis in the design phase (Ho et al. 2007).} } @online{zotero-7951, title = {{{https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/twang/vignettes/iptw.pdf}}}, url = {https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/twang/vignettes/iptw.pdf}, urldate = {2024-05-30} } @online{zotero-7979, title = {{{IMPLAN}} - {{Login}}}, url = {https://login.implan.com/login?state=hKFo2SB3Y0dhWjBEbmozc2pqR0ZkdkdDZkpZaHlOeWtscnFkcqFupWxvZ2luo3RpZNkgMjFnMV9ERDdIQkY2NUNmZVdDcVQ0cWVQcnRUM3A1ZDKjY2lk2SB2ZEdqeWhTTWtwTnZZMFV3WHE5eldIM2FmTFZzUnRIYg&client=vdGjyhSMkpNvY0UwXq9zWH3afLVsRtHb&protocol=oauth2&scope=openid%20profile%20email&audience=https%3A%2F%2Fservices.implan.com&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fapp.implan.com%2Fauth-redirect&response_type=code&response_mode=query&nonce=a0FPVEdPN0VTRHQ0SVZPU0hoRGxKYjAzc0V5bUIwOVFMeGNFUkFhMzhxdA%3D%3D&code_challenge=CIckJXgV-M8xPWDx1jtT628NNx3vGX3GBU89ASHaAfo&code_challenge_method=S256&auth0Client=eyJuYW1lIjoiYXV0aDAtc3BhLWpzIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6IjIuMS4zIn0%3D}, urldate = {2024-06-11}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/WJ858WAK/login.html} } @online{zotero-7982, title = {Electric {{Power Markets}} | {{Federal Energy Regulatory Commission}}}, url = {https://www.ferc.gov/electric-power-markets}, urldate = {2024-06-11}, abstract = {National Overview Traditional wholesale electricity markets exist primarily in the Southeast, Southwest and Northwest where utilities are responsible for system operations and management, and, typically, for providing power to retail consumers.}, langid = {english} } @online{zotero-7986, title = {Appendix {{A}} to {{Part}} 40—{{Criteria Relating}} to the {{Operation}} of {{Uranium Mills}} and the {{Disposition}} of {{Tai}}}, url = {https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/part040/part040-appa.html}, urldate = {2024-06-10}, abstract = {Appendix A to Part 40—Criteria Relating to the Operation of Uranium Mills and the Disposition of Tai}, langid = {american}, organization = {NRC Web}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/8AKZZCLE/part040-appa.html} } @article{zotero-7987, title = {Smith {{Ranch-Highland Mine Unit B Restoration ACL License Amendment}}.}, langid = {english}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/8CS3YWDI/Smith Ranch-Highland Mine Unit B Restoration ACL L.pdf} } @online{zotero-7996, title = {Optimal {{Full Matching}} and {{Related Designs}} via {{Network Flows}} on {{JSTOR}}}, url = {https://www-jstor-org.mines.idm.oclc.org/stable/27594200?sid=primo}, urldate = {2024-06-07}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/ATTX29LT/27594200.html} } @online{zotero-7998, title = {Optimal {{Full Matching}} and {{Related Designs}} via {{Network Flows}}: {{Journal}} of {{Computational}} and {{Graphical Statistics}}: {{Vol}} 15, {{No}} 3}, url = {https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1198/106186006X137047}, urldate = {2024-06-07}, file = {/home/alex/Zotero/storage/ZPM5FUWQ/106186006X137047.html} } @online{zotero-8021, title = {{{UNSCEAR}} 2016 {{Report}}}, url = {https://www.unscear.org/unscear/en/publications/2016.html}, urldate = {2024-06-05}, abstract = {\<p\>The \<a href=\&\#034;https://www.unscear.org/unscear/en/publications/2016.html\&\#034;\>\<strong\>UNSCEAR 2016 Report\</strong\>\</a\> is comprised of the main text of the 2016 report to the \<a href=\&\#034;https://www.unscear.org/unscear/en/ga/general-assembly.html\&\#034;\>General Assembly\</a\> (A/71/46 and Corr.1) and four scientific annexes.\</p\> \<table\> \<tbody\> \<tr\> \<td style=\&\#034;background-color: \#2e75b6;
