The present report seeks to inform critical questions with regard to policy mixes of investments in adaptation and … mitigation, and how they might vary over time. This is facilitated here by examining adaptation within global Integrated … Assessment Modelling frameworks. None of the existing Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) captures adaptation satisfactorily …
