The models, called RICE-99 (for the Regional Dynamic Integrated model of Climate and the Economy) and DICE-99 (for the Dynamic Integrated Model of Climate and the Economy) build on the authors' earlier work, particularly their RICE and DICE models of the early 1990s. Humanity is risking the health of the natural environment through a myriad of interventions, including the atmospheric emission of trace gases such as carbon dioxide, the use of ozone-depleting chemicals, the engineering of massive land-use changes, and the destruction of the habitats of many species. It is imperative that we learn to protect our common geophysical and biological resources. Although scientists have studied greenhouse warming for decades, it is only recently that society has begun to consider the economic, political, and institutional aspects of environmental intervention. To do so raises formidable challenges of data modeling, uncertainty, international coordination, and institutional design. Attempts to deal with complex scientific and economic issues have increasingly involved the use of models to help analysts and decision makers understand likely future outcomes as well as the implications of alternative policies. This book presents in detail a pair of models of the economics of climate change. The models, called RICE-99 (for the Regional Dynamic Integrated model of Climate and the Economy) and DICE-99 (for the Dynamic Integrated Model of Climate and the Economy) build on the authors' earlier work, particularly their RICE and DICE models of the early 1990s. They can help policy makers design better economic and environmental policies. 001385963 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001385963 650_0 $$aGlobal warming$$xEconomic aspects$$xMathematical models. 001385963 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$xEnvironmental aspects$$xMathematical models. 001385963 653__ $$aECONOMICS/General 001385963 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001385963 7001_ $$aBoyer, Joseph,$$d1969- 001385963 852__ $$bebk 001385963 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/7158.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001385963 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001385963 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1385963$$pGLOBAL_SET 001385963 980__ $$aBIB 001385963 980__ $$aEBOOK 001385963 982__ $$aEbook 001385963 983__ $$aOnline
