This book draws together contributions from forest economists in
the Research Triangle of North Carolina, with co-authors from
institutions around the world. It represents our common belief that
rigorous empirical analysis in an economic framework can inform
forest policy. We intend the book as a guide to the empirical
methods that we have found most useful for addressing both
traditional and modem areas of concern in forest policy, including
timber production and markets, multiple use forestry, and valuation
of non-market benefits. 'The book editors and most chapter authors
are affiliated with three institutions in the Research Triangle:
the Southern Research Station of the USDA Forest Service (K. Abt,
Butry, Holmes, Mercer, Moulton, Prestemon, Wear), the Department of
Forestry at North Carolina State University (R. Abt, Ahn, Cubbage,
Sills), and the Environmental and Natural Resource Economics
Program of Research Triangle Institute (Murray, Pattanayak). Two
other Triangle institutions are also represented among the book
authors: Duke University (Kramer) and the Forestland Group
(Zinkhan). In addition to our primary affiliations, many of us are
adjunct faculty and/or graduates of Triangle universities. Many of
our co-authors also graduated from or were previously affiliated
with Triangle institutions. Thus, the selection of topics, methods,
and case studies reflects the work of this particular network of
economists, and to some degree, our location in the southeastern
United States. However, our work and the chapters encompass other
regions of the United States and the world, including Latin America
and Asia.
