green and blue water accounting in the ganges and nile basins implications for food and agricultural policy
Journal of Hydrology, 2010Co-Authors: Timothy B Sulser, Claudia Ringler, Tingju Zhu, Siwa Msangi, Elizabeth Bryan, Mark W RosegrantAbstract:Summary Most food globally is produced from soil moisture that comes exclusively from precipitation, or “green” water. Moreover, most of the water reaching plants in irrigated systems also stems from precipitation. Despite this, irrigation or “blue” water has typically been the focus for policy analysis in the past, given the possibility for human manipulation of these resources. This paper analyzes alternative water futures using a combined green and blue water accounting framework embedded within the water simulation components of IFPRI’s International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT). Recently developed future scenarios for the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD) and other work are assessed with this adjusted green/blue water accounting framework. Accounting explicitly for green water resources broadens the scope of options for decision-makers trying to improve agricultural production in the face of rising food and energy prices and a degrading water and land resource base in the face of increasing demands. Results highlight the importance of green/blue water accounting presenting a wider range of agricultural Science and technology policy options for increasing global crop productivity across a span of potential futures.

open innovation the haldane principle and the new production of Knowledge Science policy and university industry links in the uk after the financial crisis
Prometheus, 2011Co-Authors: Alan HughesAbstract:The paper looks at the system of Knowledge production and innovation in the UK from a Mode 2 perspective. It is critical of policy that focuses on Science and engineering, on distinctions between basic and applied research, and that looks to notions of the entrepreneurial university. Extensive survey work of individual academics and UK firms reveals an extensive range of linkages between academics and industry, many personal rather than institutional. Formal mechanisms to link the university with the firm are rarely key initiators of connections. As key policy challenge is to design institutions and incentives that enhance the reflexive interplay between universities and external organisations and which build on the full range of interactions and disciplines.

open innovation the haldane principle and the new production of Knowledge Science policy and university industry links in the uk after the financial crisis
Research Papers in Economics, 2011Co-Authors: Alan HughesAbstract:This paper analyses Science policy resource allocation in the light of a comparison of the open innovation and Mode 2 new production of Knowledge conceptual frameworks. It provides a brief historical review of the evolution of Science funding and the application of the Haldane principle in the UK. The core of the paper analyses academic and business attitudes to university-industry links using two recent large scale surveys and argues that there is a largely false dichotomy drawn between applied and basic research. University-industry links are already extensive and encompass a wide range of interactions than those captured by the usual debate over Science engineering and narrow conceptions of commercialisation based on patenting and spin-outs.
