The SCFER Working Paper Series was created as a way for researchers at the member institutions and their collaborators to distribute early information about their forest economics research. The papers in the series therefore represent "works in progress" on the way to more polished publications in peer reviewed outlets.

To encourage publication in peer reviewed outlets, Working Papers older than five years are withdrawn from distribution. Active papers may be obtained by writing to the SCFER address above. Papers available for download have their transfer size shown and are provided in Adobe Acrobat (*.pdf) format. Visit ADOBE's site if you need a (free) reader for this format.
