TL;DR: A guiding framework is presented that aims to assist modellers and model users in the choice of an appropriate modelling approach for their integrated assessment applications and that enables more effective learning in interdisciplinary settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Bayesian network of eutrophication models for synthesis, prediction, and uncertainty analysis
TL;DR: A Bayesian network integrating models of the various processes involved in eutrophication in the Neuse River estuary, North Carolina is described, suggesting that a compromise is necessary between policy relevance and predictive precision, and that, to select defensible environmental management strategies, public officials must adopt decision-making methods that deal explicitly with scientific uncertainty.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass Production in Switchgrass across the United States: Database Description and Determinants of Yield
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the perennial switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and compile a database that contains 1190 observations of yield from 39 field trials conducted across the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pro-environmental behavior
TL;DR: The relationship between the literatures from two disciplines that appear to be moving toward a degree of convergence are reviewed and the implications for the theory and practice of ecological economics are explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
On Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian inference
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare BMC and MCMCMCMC and demonstrate that BMC is extremely inefficient in the sense that the prior parameter distribution, from which the BMC sample is drawn, is often a poor surrogate for the posterior parameter distribution.
