Integrated Natural Resource Management in Northern Sweden: An Application to Forestry and Reindeer Husbandry
Forests in northern Sweden are used for both timber production and reindeer grazing. Negative externalities and open access effects threaten the ability of the region to sustain economic benefits from these uses. Adiscrete time simulation for three municipalities in northern Sweden suggests that mod...
