A recursive method for solving a climate-economy model: value function iterations with logarithmic approximations

A recursive method for solving an integrated assessment model of climate and the economy is developed in this paper. The method approximates value function with a logarithmic basis function and searches for solutions on a set satisfying optimality conditions. These features make the method suitable for a highly nonlinear model with many state variables and various constraints, as usual in a climate-economy model.
