paper, we apply static and dynamic versions of a smooth ambiguity model to climate mitigation policy. We obtain a general … result on the comparative statics of optimal abatement and ambiguity aversion, and then extend our analysis to a more … realistic, dynamic setting, where we introduce scientific ambiguity into the well-known DICE model of the climate-economy system …

We present a model of technological adaptation in response to a change in climate conditions. The main feature of the model is that new technologies are not just risky, but also ambiguous. Pessimistic agents are thus averse to adopting a new technology. Learning is induced by optimists, who are...

This note considers the treatment of risk and uncertainty in the recently established social cost of carbon (SCC) for analysis of federal regulations in the United States. It argues that the analysis of the US Interagency Working Group on Social Cost of Carbon did not go far enough into the tail...
