Research Interests:

Adaptation and the potential damage of global climate change continues to be a focus of my research. There are three distinct lines of inquiry. One looks at the micro responses to investigate the degree to which assuming efficient markets biases the estimates of cost and/or limits the range of potential adaptation. A second looks at trying to estimate reduced form cost functions when data are scarce. The third investigates the role of uncertainty and the search for robust and/or hedging strategies in formulating policy.
