摘要

本文使用实时活跃火灾地点的卫星数据来评估尼泊尔森林火灾对财产价值的影响。结果显示，上个月的森林火灾导致的火灾辐射功率增加了一个单位，导致住宅物业价值下降了0.61%。在过去一年中，森林火灾事件数量每增加一个单位，房地产价值就会下降4.48%。这些估计表明，政策制定者应优先考虑与反复发生的森林火灾事件相关的财产价值下降程度较高的地区的野火风险意识和防火计划。

Environmental Disasters and Property Values: Evidence from Nepal’s Forest Fires

This article uses satellite data on real-time active fire locations to evaluate the effect of forest fires on property values in Nepal. Results show that an additional unit increase in fire radiative power from last month’s forest fires causes a 0.61% decrease in residential property values. Property values decline by 4.48% for every additional unit increase in the number of forest fire incidents over the past year. These estimates suggest that policy makers should prioritize wildfire-risk awareness and fire-prevention programs in areas with higher levels of declined property values associated with recurring forest fire incidents.

期刊介绍： Land Economics is dedicated to the study of land use, natural resources, public utilities, housing, and urban land issues. Established in 1925 by the renowned economist and founder of the American Economic Association, Richard T. Ely at the University of Wisconsin, Land Economics has consistently published innovative, conceptual, and empirical research of direct relevance to economists. Each issue brings the latest results in international applied research on such topics as transportation, energy, urban and rural land use, housing, environmental quality, public utilities, and natural resources.
