    Current Issues in Natural Resource and Environmental Economics 

    George Halkos , Ed. Pages: 220 © by the authors ISBN 978-3-0365-6259-9 (hardback); ISBN 978-3-0365-6260-5 (PDF) Published: January 2023 

    This Special Issue collects twelve studies that explore current issues concerning the environment and sustainability. The selected papers review and investigate various issues such as the nexus between trade and climate, the spatial interaction between economy and territory, climate justice in an intergenerational sustainability framework, resource rents, human development and economic growth in the case of Sudan as well as the mobility restrictions and e-commerce in the case of Madrid Centre during the COVID-19 lockdown. At the level of firms, there is a study about the development of corporate sustainability assessment methods for oil and gas companies followed by the environmental exigencies and the efficient voter rule.

    COMPUTATIONAL ECONOMETRICS

    Publ DISIGMA (2020)

    This book combines the basic theory of Econometrics with examples, exercises and instructions for using computer programs. As it aims to help the reader to methodically use the appropriate econometric methods to identify problems in the various research needs, he encourages the use of programs for correct and complete analysis. Particular attention has been paid to the instructions for use of the EVIEWS, STATA, MINITAB, SPSS programs, the EXCEL worksheet as well as the R in detail in each chapter. If after reading the book and learning the topics covered we are able to identify and eliminate existing problems, then the book will have achieved its purpose.

    STATISTICS: Theory & Practice

    Publ DISIGMA (2020)

    Statistics is increasingly used in all sciences. The use of advanced and improved statistical programs in computers has facilitated its development. This book combines the basic theory of Statistics with examples, exercises, applications, and instructions for using statistical programs on PC (MINITAB, SPSS and the well-known EXCEL worksheet). Its purpose is to present and explain the basic statistical concepts in a simple, understandable and complete way in the topics it covers. It also aims to help the reader to methodically use the appropriate statistical methods in the various research needs and to encourage the use of statistical programs for correct and complete analysis. For this purpose, in this 4th improved and enriched edition of the book, special emphasis has been given to the instructions for use of all three programs (MINITAB, SPSS, EXCEL) in detail in each chapter. If after reading the book and learning the topics covered we are able to know what we apply, where and how, then the book has achieved its purpose.

    ECONOMETRICS: Theory & Practice

    Publ DISIGMA (2019)

    This book presents the basic theory of Econometrics with examples, solved exercises and econometric problems to be solved in each chapter. Its purpose is initially to help the reader to understand the basic concepts and assumptions needed before modeling and testing economic theories. Then to methodically use the appropriate econometric methods to detect the existence of any problems in the various research needs. Finally, to solve these problems in order to evaluate and propose the appropriate policies and to enable the realization of reliable forecasts. As Econometrics is based on the synthesis of Economics, Mathematics and Statistics, the theoretical foundation is made by understanding the necessary background of knowledge of Statistics and Mathematics. This basic knowledge is necessary for the correct and complete learning of the basic principles that govern Econometrics.

    Environmental and Natural Resource Economics

    Publ DISIGMA (2016)

    The purpose of this book is to approach the Economics of Natural Resources and Environment through an applied methodological framework of analysis capable of being used to solve real environmental problems. With examples, case studies, and exercises, this book consists of fourteen chapters and is structured in three parts. The first part consists of three chapters. The first two chapters present the introductory concepts and terminology as well as the background of the quantitative methods that are considered necessary in the effort to understand the topics that will be analyzed. The third chapter presents the principles of Economic Theory and how they enter the environment creating the field of Economics, Natural Resources and Environment. The second part consists of seven chapters which provide the theoretical foundation of Economic Natural Resources and Environment by analyzing in detail, the interactions of the Environment with the Economy and Society, as well as the role of Sustainable Development. In the context of this analysis, the methodological outline and the special methods of economic valuation of environmental goods are examined in order to determine the optimal level of environmental protection. These topics are also accompanied by a presentation, analysis and comparison of economic and administrative tools for environmental policy. Having created the necessary theoretical background, the third part and the last four chapters present the modern dimension of environmental problems and analyze their aspects and how they can be addressed through effective management.

    Assessment of Energy-Environment-Economy Interrelationships. Printed Edition of the Special Issue in ENERGIES

    Publisher MDPI Switzerland(2020)

    The development of new energy and environmental policies, the new climate regime, and thedevelopment  of  new  scientific  techniques  have  provided  ample  opportunity  for  further  research.Projects  on  energy  efficiency  have  been  prioritized  in  the  portfolio  of  policies  in  many  countries,as  these  policies  are  considered  no-regret  options,  meaning  that  they  may  even  provide  gains  forthe economy.  In order to fill a gap in the literature, this book is intended to provide an analysis ofthe energy–environment–economy interrelations, with special attention paid to the potential role ofenergy and economic growth in the environment.

    Summary
    The task of this book is to approach the relationships between Economy and the Environment using an applied framework of analysis able to be used for the solution of the real environmental problems. Using examples, case studies and exercises this book, consisting of 12 chapters, presents how the basic principles of the economic theory interrelate with the environment and lead to the subject of Environmental Economics and Economics of Natural Resources. Specifically the first seven are theoretical and the next four examine the various environmental problems aiming to define the dimension of the problem(s) and to suggest solutions, while the last chapter refers to other environmental issues like renewable energy sources, the influence of trade on the environment and the implementation Environmental Management Systems Standards. Finally, the necessary background in quantitative analysis is offered in appendices.
