John B. Loomis , Colorado State University, was recently named AERE Fellow. He has
been a prolific and influential scholar in the area of nonmarket valuation, identifying
cutting edge topics and methodologies. Over the last 30 years, he has authored or co-
authored 224 refereed journal articles, co-authored three books, and written 71
proceedings papers or book chapters. He has made significant contributions to
contingent valuation, travel cost modeling, and the hedonic property method. Many
of his writing are highly cited. His publication in the American Journal of Economics
(AJAE), “Statistical Efficiency of Double Bounded Dichotomous Choice Contingent
Valuation” (with Hanemann and Kanninen) was given the Publication of Enduring
Quality Award by the Agricultural & Applied Economics Association. The 1991 Land
Economics article “Confidence Intervals for Evaluating benefits Estimates from
Dichotomous Choice Contingent Valuation Studies” (with Park and Creel) was the first
to outline a method to estimate confidence intervals for dichotomous choice WTP
models. It has become the fourth most cited paper published in Land Economics. In
the last 20 years, he has served as major professor, mentor and committee member
for many graduate students . He has played an important role as co-editor of the AERE
Newsletter since 1998, as well as serving as AERE Vice-President in 2000-2001 and as
an AERE board member in 1993-1995.
Dr. James W. Richardson, Texas A&M, Regents Professor of agricultural economics, has research and graduate teaching, responsibilities in public policy and
simulation analysis. Richardson's research has attracted national recognition by emphasizing quantitative, risk based policy analyses through the use of farm-
level simulation models (FLIPSIM). Evaluating the farm-level impacts of agricultural and tax policies on crop, livestock, and dairy farms is Richardson's
specialty. His research is largely responsible for the ability of AFPC to evaluate the implications of policy decisions at the farm level -- the analytical
dimension for which the Center is best known. He has received numerous awards including Lifetime Achievement Awards from the S A E A, the WAEA, five
Professional Excellence awards from the AAEA, the TAMU Faculty Distinguished Achievement Award, SAEA Distinguished Professional Contribution Award,
WAEA Teaching Award, Deputy Chancellor's Distinguished Performance Team Awards twice, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Honor Professor, and
Deputy Chancellor Award for TAES Faculty Fellow and Senior Faculty Fellow, TAMU Regents Professor, two USDA Administrators Awards, and the Farm
Foundation Award for Outstanding Achievement in Public Issues Education. He is presently President-Elect for the Western Agricultural Economics
Association.
