Space in Unified Models of Economy and Ecology
Venice, July 6th - 12th, 2008
http://www.feem.it/ess
The European Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (EAERE), the
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) and the Venice International University
(VIU) are pleased to announce their annual European Summer School in Resource
and Environmental Economics for postgraduate students.
The 2008 Summer School will take place from the 6th to the 12th of July, at the
VIU campus on the Island of San Servolo , in Venice , located just in front of
St. Mark’s Square. The theme of this Summer School is Space in Unified Models of
Economy and Ecology.
The purpose of this Summer School is to review and present methods of modeling
spatial problems in ecological economics, and to show how these methods can be
used in environmental and resource management. In this context the Summer
Schools is expected to cover issues associated with:
- the use of diffusion processes to model evolution in time and space;
- the implications of "the Turing mechanism" for diffusive instability, and the
emergence of steady state spatial patterns;
- the control of diffusion processes in ecological/economic models which evolve
in time and space;
- applications of spatial methods to environmental and resource management and
regulation problems, where space is important as in cases of patchy
environments, species movements, pollution diffusion. These problems could
include harvesting of renewable resources, management of pollution diffused in
space, bioinvasions, elements of spatial econometrics and GIS.
FACULTY and LECTURE TOPICS
Anastasios XEPAPADEAS, Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece –
School Coordinator
- Optimal management of spatial economic/ecological models
Aart DE ZEEUW, The Beijer Institute, Sweden, and Tilburg University, The
Netherlands
- Stability of International Environmental Agreements
Carlo GIUPPONI, Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) and Ca’ Foscari University
of Venice , Italy
- Spatial aspects of the integration between environmental and socio-economic
variables for integrated assessment and decision making
Simon LEVIN, Princeton University , USA
- Spatial models in ecology
Michael RAUSCHER, Rostock University , Germany
Location of pollution activities
James WILEN, University of California at Davis , USA
- Spatial models in renewable resource management
ADMISSION AND SCHOLARSHIPS
The Summer School is targeted to doctoral and post-doctoral students. Admission
is conditional on the presentation by each student of his/her doctoral work;
therefore applicants normally need to be advanced in their PhD to have produced
at least one substantive chapter, but not to have completely finished their
thesis. Application is restricted to current EAERE members, both European and
non European citizens. Women are encouraged to apply. Given the highly
interactive activities planned at the Summer School, the number of participants
is limited to 20. There is no participation fee.
This activity is part of the ESS RESECON project, that has received funding from
the European Community's Sixth Framework Programme, Marie Curie Actions - Human
Resources and Mobility. All successful applicants will receive financial
assistance for their participation in the Summer School under the ESS RESECON
project, in accordance to the Marie Curie Actions' rules.

School Website at http://www.feem.it/ess/ or contact the Summer School
Secretariat.
