Integrated assessment models of climate change: Beyond a doubling of CO transients, "imaginable" surprises, adaptation, market distortions and technological change are given as examples of problematic areas that IA modelers need to explicitly address and make transparent of IAMs are to enlighten more ...
We investigate climate change adaptation technologies (CCATs) in US patents to understand (1) historical patterns and possible drivers of innovation; (2) scientific and technological requirements to develop and use CCATs; and (3) CCATs’ potential technological synergies with mitigation. First, in ...

Academics in higher education around the world indicate high levels of stress from multiple sources. The COVID-19 pandemic has only served to intensify str
Climate change has been described as the leading human and environmental threat of the 21st century. Premised on the traditional role of intellectual property law, namely to encourage human inventiveness through the grant of (limited) proprietary rights in the form of patents, trademarks, trade secr...
Climate change implies (possibly unknown) changes in the weather distribution. I study how farmers form predictions about a weather-dependent decision, the planting time, using rainfall signals. To capture the potential uncertainty caused by climate change, I develop an empirical framework that ...
