This paper systematically reviews what prospect theory can offer to analyse mitigation and adaptation.

This work develops a framework for the analysis at the macro-level of the relationship between adaptation and … enriched with a planned-adaptation module where a defensive capital stock is built through adaptation investment. Within this … framework the optimal path of planned adaptation, the optimal inter and intra temporal mix between adaptation, mitigation and …

It has become commonly accepted that a successful climate strategy should compound mitigation and adaptation. The … accurate combination between adaptation and mitigation that can best address climate change is still an open question. This … paper proposes a framework that integrates mitigation, adaptation, and climate change residual damages into an optimisation …

Including adaptation costs explicitly in the total environmental cost function allows one to characterize the … for cost benefit analysis of adaptation expenditures. …
