Allocating Risks in a Domestic Greenhouse Gas Trading System
Kerr, Suzi - 2013
As tradeable permit programmes mature, two inter-related issues are becoming more critical in creating viable responses to a long-term, highly uncertain environmental problem such as climate change. First, we need to update policies in response to new information; and second, we need to design...

A hybrid approach to incorporating climate change and variability into climate scenario for impact assessments
Gebretsadik, Yohannes; Strzepek, Kenneth M.; Schlosser, … - 2014
Traditional 'delta-change' approach of scenario generation for climate change impact assessment to water resources strongly depends on the selected base-case observed historical climate conditions that the climate shocks are to be super-imposed. This method disregards the combined effect of...

Integrated assessments of climate change policy: Intergenerational equity and discounting
Toth, Ferenc L. - 1999
One of the key decisions that economists working on integrated studies of climate change face is the selection of the method of accounting for damages resulting from possible climate change across a long temporal scale and the method for the intertemporal comparison of the costs associated with...

The optimal climate policy portfolio when knowledge spills across sectors
Massetti, Emanuele; Nicita, Lea - 2010
This paper studies the implications for climate policy of the interactions between environmental and knowledge externalities. Using a numerical analysis performed with the hybrid integrated assessment model WITCH, extended to include mutual spillovers between the energy and the non-energy...

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...

Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS): liability for non-permanence under the UNFCCC
Bode, Sven; Jung, Martina - 2005
Prior to CoP 10, our discussion paper ?On the Integration of Carbon Capture and Storage into the International Climate Regime? argued that carbon capture and storage (CCS) was similar to carbon sequestration in the area of Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF). This was criticized by...

Climate uncertainty and the necessity to transform global energy supply
Zwaan, Bob van der; Gerlagh, Reyer - 2004
This paper analyses the policy relevance of the dominant uncertainties in our current scientific understanding of the terrestrial climate system, and provides further evidence for the need to radically transform - this century - our global infrastructure of energy supply, given the global...
