Assessing Direct and Indirect Economic Impacts of a Flood Event Through the Integration of Spatial and Computable General Equilibrium Modelling

Carrera, Lorenzo; Standardi, Gabriele; Bosello, Francesco; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2014

In this paper we developed and tested an integrated methodology for assessing direct and indirect economic impacts of flooding. The methodology combines a spatial analysis of damage to physical stocks with a general economic equilibrium approach using a regionally-calibrated (to Italy) version...

Macro-economic Impact Assessment of Future Changes in European Marine Ecosystem Services

Bosello, Francesco; Delpiazzo, Elisa; Eboli, Fabio - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2015

The present research has been developed within the EU FP7 VECTORS project (http://www.marine-vectors.eu/). The main scope of the project (2011-2015) has been to evaluate, from a multilateral perspective, drivers, pressures and vectors of changes in marine life of three main European seas...

The Economic Impact of the South-North Water Transfer Project in China: A Computable General Equilibrium Analysis

Berrittella, Maria; Rehdanz, Katrin; Tol, Richard S.J. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2006

Water resources are unevenly spread in China. Especially the basins of the Yellow, Hui and Hai rivers in the North are rather dry. To increase the supply of water in these basins, the South-to-North Water Transfer project (SNWT) was launched. Using a computable general equilibrium model this...

Quantifying Sustainability: A New Approach and World Ranking

Carraro, Carlo; Campagnolo, Lorenza; Eboli, Fabio; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2012

This paper proposes a new tool to assess sustainability and make the concept of sustainable development operational. It considers its multi-dimensional structure combining the information deriving from a selection of relevant sustainability indicators belonging to economic, social and...

Economic and Poverty Impacts of a Voluntary Carbon Reduction for a Small Liberalized Developing Economy: The Case of the Philippines

Corong, Erwin L. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2007

This paper analyzes the economic and poverty effects of a voluntary carbon emission reduction for a small liberalized economy—the Philippines. The simulation results indicate that tariff reductions undertaken by the Philippine government between 1994 and 2005 reduced the cost of fossil fuels...

Economy-Wide Estimates of the Implications of Climate Change: Sea Level Rise

Roson, Roberto; Bosello, Francesco; Lazzarin, Marco; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2004

The economy-wide implications of sea level rise in 2050 are estimated using a static computable general equilibrium model. Overall, general equilibrium effects increase the costs of sea level rise, but not necessarily in every sector or region. In the absence of coastal protection, economies...

Can Climate Change Mitigation Policy Benefit the Israeli Economy? A Computable General Equilibrium Analysis

Palatnik, Ruslana; Shechter, Mordechai - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2008

The growing attention to global warming due to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the process of fossil fuel--based energy production is expressed in the Kyoto Protocol, which prescribes, on average, a 7 percent reduction in GHG emissions for developed countries. Although Israel was not included...

Economy-Wide Estimates of the Implications of Climate Change: Human Health

Bosello, Francesco; Roson, Roberto; Tol, Richard S.J. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2005

We study the economic impacts of climate-change-induced change in human health, viz. cardiovascular and respiratory disorders, diarrhoea, malaria, dengue fever and schistosomiasis. Changes in morbidity and mortality are interpreted as changes in labour productivity and demand for health care,...

Climate Change and Adaptation: The Case of Nigerian Agriculture

Bosello, Francesco; Campagnolo, Lorenza; Eboli, Fabio - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2013

in all the simulations after 2025. In a second part of the paper a cost effectiveness analysis of adaptation in Nigeria … agriculture is conducted. Adaptation practices considered are a mix of cheaper “soft measures” and more costly “hard” irrigation … adaptation exploiting low cost opportunities. In this case all climate change damages can be offset with a benefit cost ration …
