Dynamic pollution regulation with endogenous technological change

Creator:: Jaspin, Michael D
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the dynamic efficiency of emission standards and Pigouvian taxes in the regulation of pollution where research and development (R&D) and the technology level are endogenous. A key element of the analysis is a comparison of the efficiency between instances in which the regulator can and cannot commnit...

Pollution prevention in Oregon's electronics industry

Creator:: Jones, Cynthia L.
Abstract:: Pollution prevention is promoted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other governmental agencies as a method of reducing the generation of wastes and pollutants. Pollution prevention is also called source reduction because it reduces wastes early in the production process. Source reduction has been used by some industries to...

Air pollution trends in Tehran, Iran, from 1988 to 1993

Creator:: Shirazi, Mehra A.
Abstract:: Physical geography and topography combined with increasing number of motor vehicles have lead to record breaking air pollution levels in Tehran, the capital city of Iran. The objectives of this study were: 1) to document trends in Tehran, Iran's ambient air quality levels between 1988 and 1993; 2) to compare...

Leukemia incidence and benzene air pollution in Portland Oregon

Creator:: Voss, Robert W.
Abstract:: Benzene is a widespread urban pollutant and monitoring results show concentrations are particularly high in Portland, Oregon. Nationally, benzene air pollution is the largest contributor to total cancer risk from air pollutants. We used data from several data sets including: modeled benzene distribution at the census block group level from...

Application of nitrogen stable isotopes to identify sources of nutrient pollution : a management tool?

Creator:: Redon, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Nutrient pollution may perhaps be one of the oldest water quality problems and has recently been considered as one of the greatest threats to estuarine and coastal waters. Excessive nutrient loads have had a vast array of impacts on estuarine and coastal ecosystems globally. Direct negative effects include: shading out...

Wisconsin's innovative approach to nonpoint source pollution

Creator:: Strous, Robert E., Jr.
Abstract:: Nonpoint source pollution is a widespread problem with no easy solutions. The variable nature of nonpoint sources and the wide range of best management practices, coupled with a multitude of managerial constraints, make management of nonpoint source pollution a difficult task. Wisconsin's Nonpoint Source Water Pollution Abatement Program overcomes many...
