| Title |
Seminar: Economic Analysis of Extreme Climate Events |
| Description |
Description:
Extreme climate events have played important roles in human history, with great economic implications potentially. In this seminar students will be introduced to how economists evaluate the economic impact of historical extreme climate events, with particular focus on droughts. To this end they will investigate a past drought event - of either their choosing, or an assigned one - in terms of the role of the economic circumstances and the economic consequences. Evaluation will be based on a group presentation of the research and an individual summary report.
Droughts are likely to play an increasing role in the future, and this seminar will help students understand the potential implications of this.
Maximum number of participants: 12 (note: priority will be given to those enrolled in the Masters of Climate Sciences)
