Abstract

We use a dynamic, global computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to capture the economic impacts of internet adoption, modeled through reduced demand in the newsprint and printing and writing paper (pulp and paper) industries. Global newsprint consumption is estimated to fall dramatically by 2030. We rely on estimates from another study that captures the change in global pulp and paper consumption using the global forest products model (GFPM), based on two scenarios: (i) full per capita internet adoption by 2100 and (ii) more rapid full internet adoption by 2050. We incorporate reductions in pulpwood consumption into a global multiregional dynamic CGE model to estimate economy- wide impacts in Canadian provinces, the United States, and the rest of the world. Results indicated that the year 2050 internet adoption scenario would result in a reduction in cumulative discounted gross domestic product (GDP) by as much as 17% in some regions of Canada, reduce GDP by 5.8% in the United States, and increase GDP by 3.3% in the rest of the world from 2006 to 2030. These findings highlight the costs of internet adoption, leaving net benefit analysis of adoption to future work. Key words: internet adoption, pulp and paper, computable general equilibrium, global impacts. Nous avons utilise un modele d'equilibre general calculable (EGC) dynamique et mondial pour saisir les repercussions economiques de l'adoption de l'Internet, modelisees selon la reduction de la demande dans l'industrie du papier journal et des papiers d'impression et d'ecriture (pates et papiers). On estime que la consommation mondiale de papier journal chutera dramatiquement d'ici 2030. Nous nous appuyons sur les estimations d'une autre etude qui saisit le changement de la consommation mondiale des pates et papiers en utilisant le modele mondial des produits forestiers sur la base de deux scenarios : l'adoption de l'Internet par tous les habitants (i) d'ici 2100 et (ii) plus rapidement, soit d'ici 2050. Nous avons inclus les reductions de consommation de bois de pate dans un modele mondial et multiregional d'EGC dynamique pour estimer les impacts sur l'ensemble de l'economie dans les provinces canadiennes, les Etats-Unis et le reste du monde. Les resultats demontrent que le scenario d'adoption de l'Internet d'ici 2050 aurait pour consequence une reduction du PIB cumule actualise de pres de 17 % dans certaines regions du Canada et de 5,8 % aux Etats-Unis ainsi qu'une augmentation de 3,3 % du PIB dans le reste du monde entre 2006 et 2030. Ces conclusions mettent en evidence les couts de l'adoption de l'Internet laissant l'analyse des benefices nets de l'adoption a des recherches ulterieures.

Abstract

AbstractWe investigated the effects of soil and water conservation practices on mean and variance of potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) yield across 267 fields in northwestern New Brunswick, Canada, from 1988 to 2010. A stochastic production function method was used to account for seven soil and water conservation practices in addition to farm inputs, potato varieties, technological change, site characteristics, and seasonal climate effects. Overall, soil and water conservation structures had mixed effects on potato yield. While spring tillage and terracing increased mean potato yield, grassed waterways, drainage, chisel plowing, and other practices had the opposite effect. Rock management did not impact mean potato yield. Most practices did not impact yield variance. While soil and water conservation practices can be effective farm management tools for maintaining soil fertility and enhancing potato yields, there are no one-size-fits-all prescriptions to enhance yield.

Abstract

The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the most recognized global patterns of species richness exhibited across a wide range of taxa. Numerous hypotheses have been proposed in the past two centuries to explain LDG, but rigorous tests of the drivers of LDGs have been limited by a lack of high-quality global species richness data. Here we produce a high-resolution (0.025° × 0.025°) map of local tree species richness using a global forest inventory database with individual tree information and local biophysical characteristics from ~1.3 million sample plots. We then quantify drivers of local tree species richness patterns across latitudes. Generally, annual mean temperature was a dominant predictor of tree species richness, which is most consistent with the metabolic theory of biodiversity (MTB). However, MTB underestimated LDG in the tropics, where high species richness was also moderated by topographic, soil and anthropogenic factors operating at local scales. Given that local landscape variables operate synergistically with bioclimatic factors in shaping the global LDG pattern, we suggest that MTB be extended to account for co-limitation by subordinate drivers.
