^ W. Douglass Shaw, Senior Associate. Dr. Shaw specializes in environmental and natural
resource economics and applied econometrics. His work focuses on using non-m rket economic
valuation techniques to estimate changes in the demand for recreation sites and of er non-market
resources due to environmental impacts. Dr. Shaw currently is working on natural r ource damage
assessments in Colorado and Montana. Dr. Shaw has worked on estimating willingn to pay studies
for the EPA, measuring changes in health that might be associated with variations n air pollution,
and has conducted a travel cost model analysis of Pacific coast recreational fishing r the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that was published in the loumal o Environmental
Economics and Management. Dr. Shaw has also published in the American lourna of Agricultural
Economics, Rater Resources Research, Envvonments, Land Economic, and th Economics of
Education Review and has written book chapters on the allocation of water for R ources for the
