环境保护局已经利用现有的研究来评估与几项监管建议相关的环境改善的好处。本文调查了利用现有的研究来衡量水质改善的好处所遇到的问题。我们提出了选择迁移研究的标准,并提供了一个迁移的案例研究。我们的研究表明,尽管利益转移可能会带来希望,但现有研究并不是为转移而设计的,这一事实严重限制了当前转移的有效性。对未来的研究提出了建议,以解决这些限制。
The Environmental Protection Agency has used existing studies to estimate the benefits of environmental improvements associated with several regulatory proposals The problems encountered in using existing studies to measure the benefits of water quality improvements are investigated in this paper. We propose criteria for selecting transfer studies and present a case study of a transfer. Our research indicates that although benefit transfer may offer promise, the fact that existing studies were not designed for transfer places severe limitations on the current effectiveness of transfer. Suggestions for future research are presented to address these limitations.
