Realistic poverty assessments necessitate high-quality household survey data. Such data provide the foundation for designing sound policies to sustainably reduce poverty. Despite of this, welfare measures from household surveys are often plagued by non-sampling errors in the form of non-response and measurement error. Current research, while generating important lessons, is often limited in scope and the majority of studies on determinants of data quality deal with quantifiable interviewer and respondent characteristics. A comprehensive study on data quality of an ongoing long-term household panel survey in Thailand and Vietnam is presented in this paper. Determinants drawn from respondent and interviewer characteristics, the interview and survey environment and interview paradata are found to have a significant effect on the overall quality of income-related data. We suggest that survey managers utilizing computerized questionnaires further develop and optimize validation and plausibility guidelines in order to minimize nonsampling errors. Furthermore, referring to validation data (e.g. from administrative records) during data processing is likely to be a promising approach in improving the identification of such errors.

"This thesis explores the controversial Panama Canal expansion proposals using an analytical framework developed by Herman Daly, an ecological economist at the University of Maryland and a critic of traditional models economic development. At a time when nearly every nation seeks to increase the size of its economy, Daly has been an ardent advocate of setting limits to economic growth, arguing that, as the earth is materially closed, there cannot be infinite growth of the consumption of material and energy resources within a finite (nongrowing) biosphere. These limits should be defined by the regenerative and waste absorptive capacities of the biosphere. My objective here is to test the feasibility of implementing a policy at the local resource management level that is guided by the recognition of ecological limits to economic growth. I employ a water management technique developed by The Nature Conservancy called the Range of Variability Approach (RVA) and test its utility in setting an ecologically-based limit to water withdrawal and river system modification in the Panama Canal watershed.
