Water is a multidimensional issue, involving water availability, access to freshwater, spatial and temporal … other aspects. The water security approach manages such complexity and proposes a comprehensive view of human security in … relation to the water-related issues. Consequently, the solutions developed in order to face this multi-faceted concept should …

This paper analyzes the economic impacts of changes in water availability due to climate change. We develop a new … modeling approach as an alternative to include water as a production factor within a global CGE model. We tailor the structure … of the ICES model to characterize the key features of the world economy with a detailed representation of the …

We analyse agreements on river water allocation between riparian countries. Besides being efficient, water allocation … agreements need to be stable in order to be effective in increasing the efficiency of water use. In this paper, we assess the … stability of water allocation agreements, using a game theoretic model. We consider the effects of climate change and the choice …

We study a dynamic game of climate policy design in terms of emissions and solar radiation management (SRM) involving two heterogeneous regions or countries. Countries emit greenhouse gasses (GHGs), and can block incoming radiation by unilateral SRM activities, thus reducing global temperature....

We couple a spatially homogeneous energy balance climate model with an economic growth model which incorporates two potential policies against climate change: mitigation, which is the traditional policy, and geoengineering. We analyze the optimal policy mix of geoengineering and mitigation in...

In recent years, there has been rapid development of the literature linking climate change and armed conflicts. Although no conclusionary evidence has been found of a direct link between climate change and armed conflicts, still climate change has been addressed as an important trigger,...
