Only One Tree from Each Seed? Environmental Effectiveness and Poverty Alleviation in Mexico's Payments for Ecosystem Services Program (2015, background): “FIGURE 2 HERE The second issue is that land use outcomes are likely to be spatially correlated due to similarity in geographies or influence of neighbors (Robalino and Pfaff 2012).”
Market inefficiencies and the adoption of agricultural technologies in developing countries 1 (2013, background): “For example, in Costa Rica, Robalino and Pfaff (2012) find that individuals are more likely to deforest when their neighbors deforest.”
Mainstreaming Impact Evaluation in Nature Conservation (2016, background): “Others find a ―halo effect‖ whereby areas adjacent to protected areas are better protected than one might expect (Honey-Rosés et al. 2011; Gaveau et al. 2012; Robalino & Pfaff 2012).”
Payment for Ecosystem Services from Forests (2014, background): “Such a possibility is suggested by the empirics in Robalino & Pfaff (2012), who examine the impact of neighbor decisions on deforestation behavior.”
