In an attempt to advance in the modelling of adaptation within IAM models, we apply this methodology to shed some … light on how the optimal balance between mitigation and adaptation changes under different stochastic scenarios. We find … that stochastic technology growth hardly affects the optimal bundle of mitigation and adaptation whereas uncertainty about …
