ABSTRACTThis research will examine the economic impact of Hurricane Katrina upon both the metropolitan regions that were directly struck by the hurricane and the metropolitan regions that served as host regions for the thousands of evacuees he left New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region. Initial estimates indicate that Katrina will likely be the costliest storm in United States history. More than a million Gulf coast residents were displaced by the storm. The research will focus upon the collection and analysis of ephemeral, time-sensitive data. Surveys of evacuees will be conducted in Gulfport/Long Beach, MS and Lubbock, TX. Economic, social, psychological and experiential data will be collected from a sample of approximately 400 evacuees at each site. The study will focus upon three primary economic issues: 1) the number of jobs lost, new jobs created from recovery efforts and job sustained; 2) value-added (in dollars) to the local economy from enterprise operations (including household income, excise and sales taxes, self-employed income, property income such as rents, etc.); 3) total output (in collars) lost in the local economy.This research examines the topic where little previous research has been done. By looking at the economic impacts on both the destroyed and the host communities, a more complete understanding of economic impacts of disasters will be obtained. There is a strong educational impact of the research, as graduate students from both East Carolina University and Texas Tech University will be involved in data collection and analysis.

摘要本研究将探讨卡特里娜飓风对直接遭受飓风袭击的大都市地区以及作为他离开新奥尔良和墨西哥湾沿岸地区的数千名撤离者的收容地区的经济影响。 初步估计表明，卡特里娜飓风可能是美国历史上损失最大的风暴。 超过100万墨西哥湾沿岸居民因风暴而流离失所。 研究将侧重于收集和分析短暂的、时间敏感的数据。 对撤离人员的调查将在密西西比州的格尔夫波特/长滩和德克萨斯州的拉伯克进行。 将从每个地点大约400名撤离者的样本中收集经济、社会、心理和经验数据。 这项研究将集中于三个主要的经济问题：1）失去的就业机会，恢复努力创造的新就业机会和维持的就业机会; 2）企业经营对当地经济的增值（以美元计）（包括家庭收入，消费税和销售税，自营职业收入，财产收入，如租金等）; 3)当地经济损失的总产量（以衣领为单位）。这项研究探讨了以前很少研究的主题。 通过研究对受灾社区和东道社区的经济影响，将更全面地了解灾害的经济影响。 这项研究具有很强的教育影响力，因为来自东卡罗莱纳大学和德克萨斯理工大学的研究生将参与数据收集和分析。
