We study a commons problem under uncertainty, where individual actions affect the risk of a future damage event. We … show that for risk-averse agents, an extra risk on the amount of the damage induces more precautionary actions in Nash … equilibrium. Similarly, for prudent agents an extra risk in all states of the world induces more precautionary actions in Nash …

Complex dynamic systems can undergo changes in feedbacks between system components causing a rapid and persistent shift in system behavior (“regime shifts”), and potentially reduce welfare from declining provision of important ecosystem services. In this paper, we provide an analytical...

This risk premium quantifies what society would be willing to pay to insure against the uncertainty of the damages, and it … highly sensitive to the coefficient of relative risk aversion.
