Modeling, Empirics and Policy Implications of Firm Heterogeneity in International Trade
… accessible Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) implementation is currently not available. This dissertation addresses this gap by a combination of theory, calibration, estimation and simulation to develop and implement a firm heterogeneity module executed within the GTAP environment. ^ …

Molecular Regulation of Vascular Calcification In Murine Models of Atherosclerosis
… the Wnt/β-catenin system and potentially GTAP, an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme responsible for protein degradation, which participates in the homeostasis of proteins and metabolites in stem cells. The long-term goal of this study is to delineate the molecular pathway(s) by which ApoE …

Measuring Welfare Effects of the US-China Trade War Using General Equilibrium Models
… the United States (US) and China using the GTAP (Global Trade Analysis Project) CGE (Computable General Equilibrium) model. Five scenarios focused on economic decoupling are ana- lyzed: 1. Mutual tariff levels increased to 25%, 2. Mutual tariff levels increased to 45%, 3. Bilateral export …

Trade Policy, Processing, and New Zealand Forestry
… single country model, and the existing GTAP model in our simulations. The study makes a contribution to the existing literature by incorporating foreign ownership into a formal analysis of processing incentives, developing a new CGE model of the New Zealand economy which incorporates …

Quantifying the trade impact of non-tariff measures: Econometric and CGE Analysis
… Using the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model, I find that if, in a counterfactual scenario, all countries were able to export all fruit and vegetable products to New Zealand, imports from Europe, Latin America, Middle East and Africa and East Asia would increase at the expense of …

Electric power and the global economy: Advances in database construction and sector representation
… 4 presents the full construction methodology for GTAP-Power, the foremost, publicly-available global computable general equilibrium database. Chapter 5 presents an electricity-detailed computational equilibrium model that explicitly and endogenously captures capacity utilization, capacity …

Transgenic Rice in Asia: A General Equilibrium Assessment of Potential Welfare Effects and Regional Distribution
… version of the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model with several innovative features: the database and code represent the distinct rice environments for both paddy and seed sectors; monopoly power is included in the model as a markup tax instrument when private firms sell herbicide …

The Value of Irrigation Water in New Zealand
… the CGE modelling work modifies the well-known GTAP model to include water as factor of production, as well as to disaggregate the results to a regional level within the New Zealand economy. The findings indicate strong interconnectedness between sectors and regions, with policies in one region …

Three Essays On The Interaction Between Global Trade And Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Agreements
… computable general equilibrium model, GTAP-AEZ-GHG, documented in Golub et al. (2009) to investigate how the United States can use trade sanctions as an enforcement mechanism in a global greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation agreement. The focus is placed on inducing China to comply with the …
