(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2009-10-21)Climate change has played an increasingly key role in recent years and is now one of the leading political priorities worldwide. This article illustrates the scope of the problem, its causes and its impacts, along with the ... -
Climate Change and Knowledge Communities
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2009-10-13)Climate change is a global problem whose particular characteristics mean that public-sector policy is fundamental in tackling it: a public-sector policy implemented world-wide that requires the co-operation of a large ... -
Climate Risk Assessment under Uncertainty: An Application to Main European Coastal Cities
(Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016-12-16)This paper analyses the risk of extreme coastal events in major European coastal cities using a stochastic diffusion model that is calibrated with the worst case emission scenario from the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate ... -
Cost effectiveness of a combination of instruments for global warming: a quantitative approach for Spain
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2011-04-28)There is a considerable body of research about the use and design of market instruments for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. However, discussion of the combination of instruments and their possible interactions is in ... -
