... His interests include developing calibration methods based on maximum entropy estimators to model the economic structure of resource use from disaggregated physical data, including remote sensing methods, to infer the underlying economic functions. Much of his research has focused on California's water resources, including water markets in the San Joaquin Valley and the Westlands Water District.
