& This study presents a framework for analyzing the interactions between aquaculture and capture fisheries in the context of ecosystem-based management. We extends a model of the economic and ecological systems in coastal New England by incorporating an aquaculture sector in a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model and by examining the forage fish and aquaculture link in a marine food web. ...

For two decades, the Thai government has been promoting ethanol and biodiesel consumption through tax measures price subsidies. Although this policy substantially increased production of biofuels, there is concern regarding its future fiscal burden. Due to constraints, planned completely terminate biofuel subsidy by 2022. This study aims at examining economy-wide impacts removing also conductin...

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of technology transfer through the imports of intermediate goods by developing countries developed countries with the emphasis on Iran economy. For this purpose, we used multi-sectoral and multi–regional computable general equilibrium GTAP model (multi-sectoral and multi-regional CGE model). The paper examined the effect of a ten pe...

This paper details the construction of a large-scale computable general equilibrium (CGE) model for a single U.S. region. The model contains detailed treatment of margins and taxes, features not typically given prominence in U.S. regional CGE models. The starting point for the core of the CGE model’s data base is information from IMPLAN, producers of regional I/O data at the U.S. county and sta...

Climate change mitigation faces two main policy challenges: the need for global cooperation to tackle collective action problem and share burden of carbon pricing fair way following principle common but differentiated responsibility (CBRD). In this paper we explore best ways incentivize regions reduce their CO2 emissions while minimizing welfare losses low-income countries using simulations wit...

In this paper, a systematic literature review on the impact of fisheries economy and application computable general equilibrium (CGE) input–output (IO) methods for assessing is conducted. The importance as food source, over exploitation resource, and, consequently, are motivations behind study. By reviewing applications two most common economic modelling tools, we aim to shine light state art h...

The direct association between air pollution and morbidity and mortality rates has been proved. This major environmental risk factor has been mainly due to extensive use of fossil fuels. Increasing pollution caused by fossil fuels can threaten human health. This study simulated the effect of green taxes on Iran’s health indicators, i.e., mortality and morbidity. We used a Computable General Equ...

This paper describes FiFoSiM, the integrated tax benefit microsimulation and computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Center of Public Economics at the University of Cologne. FiFoSiM consists of three main parts. The first part is a static tax benefit microsimulation module. The second part adds a behavioural component to the model: an econometrically estimated labour supply model. The...
