Short Description
The workshop is
aimed to discuss and organise a research programme on Spatial Dynamic Models of
Economics and Eco-Systems, to be developed by the EEE Programme.
The idea
underlying this research topic, a neglected field, is to explain both heterogeneity
and modularity of the distribution of population in space. To date, such models
have not included the human population. However, harvesting one population at
one location not only has implications for the site itself, but it also has implications
for the subsequent distribution of populations over the space husbanding the resources
in question. An exciting theme for research is the development of policy analysis
in spatial models of ecosystems. The findings would be a pre-requisite for developing
management rules for those cases where the spatial dimension of resources is of
particular significance.
