Abstract
This book is about mathematical models for environmental and resource policy and management. The authors present an overview of the theory, methods, techniques, and experience relevant to the analysis of problems of the interface of society and its natural environment. They also evaluate the scientific adequacy and policy effectiveness of a wide variety of applied economic-ecological models. Furthermore, they indicate the reasons for success and failure of these model applications and summarize options for their improvement.
