  • The closing of the Norwegian commons

    Creator:
    Hersoug, Bjørn

  • Information Spillovers Among Resource Extractors

    Creator:
    Lynham, John
    Abstract:
    Whilst the study of resource extraction under uncertainty has a long history in resource economics, there has been less attention paid to endogenous efforts to reduce uncertainty through learning and information acquisition. An unresolved empirical question is the degree to which individual extractors learn from the behavior of other extractors....
