IAMs with the complex dynamic structure of forests and forest supply is a daunting intertemporal task. This study examines … the market for woody biomass by combining the integrated assessment model WITCH with the global dynamic forestry model GTM … biomass program. Forest area will expand by 70-95% leading to increased storage of 685-1,279 GtCO2 in forest by 2100. Overall …

This paper presents a novel way to disentangle inequality aversion over time from inequality aversion between regions in the computation of the Social Cost of Carbon. Our approach nests a standard efficiency based Social Cost of Carbon estimate and an equity weighted Social Cost of Carbon...
