Parks versus PES: Evaluating direct and incentive-based land conservation in Mexico (2017, unknown): “…problem, policymakers can target payments based on observable characteristics likely to predict the risk of deforestation (described theoretically by e.g. Alix-Garcia et al. 2008, Ferraro 2008 and practiced by PES programs in Costa Rica and Mexico e.g. Robalino et al. 2008, Sims et al. 2014).”
The Devil in the Detail: A Practical Guide on Designing Payments for Environmental Services (2016, background): “, deforestation (Kaimowitz and Angelsen, 1998), to predict the probability that ES would be lost or not provided in the absence of PES (Alix-Garcia et al., 2008; Wünscher et al., 2008).”
Payments for Ecosystem Services in Mexico: Nature, Neoliberalism, Social Movements, and the State (2010, background): “Water supply seemed to be the ES with the most identifiable potential market ( Alix-Garcia, de Janvry, and Sadoulet 2006 ).”
Poverty, development, and environment (2010, background): “…through involving the poor in payment for ecosystem services schemes and other measures that enhance the environments on which the poor depend (Grieg-Gran et al., 2005; Pagiola et al., 2005; Alix-Garcia et al., 2008; Barbier, 2008; Bulte et al., 2008; Wunder, 2008; Zilberman et al., 2008).”
Payment for Ecosystem Services from Forests (2014, background): “An alternative to auctions—selecting program recipients based on observable risk factors—also offers significant cost savings in simulations (Alix-Garcia et al. 2008, Mason & Plantinga 2013).”
