The issue of groundwater management remains a practical concern in many regions
throughout the world, while water managers continue to grapple with the question of how to …

Gisser and Sánchez (1980a) state the conditions under which welfare gains from policy
intervention are negligible in aquifer management, when compared with non-regulation or …

This paper revisits Gisser‐Sanchez's effect, a paradoxical empirical result that persists in the
groundwater literature since 1980, when it was first identified by Gisser and Sanchez. In …

Water transfers from agricultural to urban and environmental uses will likely become
increasingly common worldwide. Many agricultural areas rely heavily on underlying …

We examine strategic behavior in groundwater depletion within the setting of state
governance of groundwater resources in the American West. Solving a dynamic common …

We compare the social welfare of pumping groundwater under central (optimal) control to
that obtained under a private property rights regime in which firms are granted tradeable …

Gisser and Sánchez (Water Resour Res 16 (4): 638–642, 1980) compared two different
strategies to manage aquifers:“free market” and policy regulation. They stated that the …

This paper introduces a game theoretic model of groundwater extraction in a two-cell aquifer
under incomplete information. A novel assumption is that individual users have incomplete …

We construct a spatially explicit groundwater model that has multiple cells and finite
hydraulic conductivity to estimate the gains from groundwater management and the factors …

An economic model of ground water salinization is developed. Starting from a full, high-
quality aquifer, there is an initial extraction period, an intermediate waste disposal period …
