The Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at Colorado State University (CSU) is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow in the area of water resource economics. The position will focus on the development of hydroeconomic models to assess groundwater management as well as regional economic modeling. The selected individual will work in collaboration with Dr. Suter, Dr. Goemans and Dr. Manning of CSU and Dr. Schoengold of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln to develop and refine a linked hydro-agronomic-economic model of groundwater use. The modeling framework will then be used to evaluate the impacts of various groundwater management strategies and agricultural practices on water use and profitability for producers in specific areas in the Ogallala Aquifer. The individual will also carry out regional economic analysis to assess the broader economic implications of the conservation interventions.

 

The position is funded through an interdisciplinary multi-institutional USDA Coordinated Agricultural Project. The individual will be expected to work closely with research collaborators at Colorado State University, the University of Nebraska and other institutions to make decisions about model development and implementation to develop evidence of policy and agricultural practice efficacy in conserving groundwater use.

All information about the conference can be found at www.pmrc2018.com.

INDIVIDUAL PAPER PROPOSALS

The program committee welcomes proposals featuring high quality theoretical, qualitative, or quantitative research. We welcome submissions on a variety of themes including performance management, leadership, innovation, co-production, collaborative governance, strategic HRM, public service delivery, public-private partnerships, capacity building, decentralization and federalism, values, ethics and accountability, good governance, Eastern and Western models of public administration, and multi-level governance, among others.

Empirical proposals will be evaluated based on the significance and quality of the research question, design, methods, data, and implications. The program committee also welcomes theoretical proposals. Theoretical proposals will be evaluated based on the extent to which the proposal provides insight into a compelling public management subject, identifies foundational assumptions and key concepts, and results in testable hypotheses.

FULL PANEL PROPOSALS

The program committee encourages the submission of complete panels consisting of four individual papers and a chair. Panel submissions should bring together complementary papers that tackle compelling research questions or subjects of study in public management. The panel organizer will formally make the submission on behalf of the full panel. The panel organizer will also provide information on the overall theme of the panel and indicate how each of the proposed papers connects to the panel’s theme. The panel submission should include information on the panel chair.
