Weather Impacts On Natural, Social And Economic System (WISE) Part I: Sectoral Analysis of Climate Impacts in Italy
Galeotti, Marzio; Goria, Alessandra; Mombrini, Paolo; … - 2004
This paper focuses on the results of the research work carried out by Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) within the WISE project. This project aims at investigating the effects and the impacts of extreme weather events, particularly very warm summers, mild winters and storms, on the...

Global warming, uncertainty and endogenous technical change: Implications for Kyoto
Castelnuovo, Efrem; Moretto, Michele; Vergalli, Sergio - 2001
The purpose of the present paper is to describe the role of uncertainty and technical change in an environmental … context. Which impact does ecological uncertainty have on physical and R&D investments' decisions? How are pollution … trajectories modified when uncertainty is taken into account? To reply to these questions we modify the ETC-RICE model described in …

A different perspective for global climate policy: Combining burden sharing and climate protection
Onigkeit, Janina; Alcamo, Joseph - 1999
A method is presented for computing long-term greenhouse gas emission pathways for both industrial ("Annex B") countries and developing ("non-Annex B") countries. This method combines two main factors: (i) climate protection goals, in the form of targets for stabilising CO2 in the atmosphere,...

Learning by Doing vs Learning by Researching in a Model of Climate Change Policy Analysis
Galeotti, Marzio; Vergalli, Sergio; Castelnuovo, Efrem; … - 2003
Many predictions and conclusions in climate change literature have been made on the basis of theoretical analyses and quantitative models that assume exogenous technological change. One may wonder if those policy prescriptions hold in the more realistic case of endogenously evolving...

Modeling linkages between climate policy and land use: an overview
van der Werf, Edwin; Peterson, Sonja - 2007
Agriculture and forestry play an important role in emitting and storing greenhouse gases. For an efficient and cost-effective climate policy it is therefore important to explicitly include land use, land use change, and forestry (LULUCF) in economyclimate models. This paper gives an overview and...

Simulating with RICE coalitionally stable burden sharing agreements for the climate change problem
Eyckmans, Johan; Tulkens, Henry - 1999
In this paper we test empirically with the Nordhaus and Yang (1996) RICE model the core property of the transfer scheme advocated by Germain, Toint and Tulkens (1997). This scheme is designed to sustain full co-operation in a voluntary international environmental agreement by making all...

Limits to climate change
Chander, Parkash; Tulkens, Henry - 2001
The paper proves the existence and uniqueness of a noncooperative steady state in the context of a model of climate change. It also explores the possibility of cooperation and attainment of an optimal steady state. It is shown that the problem is similar to that in the static model (Chander and...

Simulating coalitionally stable burden sharing agreements for the climate change problem
Eyckmans, Johan; Tulkens, Henry - 2001
In this paper we introduce the CLIMNEG World Simulation (CWS) model for simulating cooperative game theoretic aspects of global climate negotiations. The model is derived from the seminal RICE model by Nordhaus and Yang (1996). We first state the necessary conditions that determine optimal...
