The AUA Manoogian Simone College of Business and Economics, the AUA Master of Economics Program and the AUA Acopian Center for the Environment co-organize a research seminar on the “Economics of Climate Change” by Dr. Terrence Iverson, Associate Professor at the Colorado State University.
About the Speaker
Dr. Terrence Iverson is an Associate Professor at the Colorado State University. He is an environmental economist and macroeconomist who uses applied theory, numerical methods, and econometric tools to study issues in the economics of climate change and other environmental policy problems. Examples of his ongoing research includes the development of computational methods to incorporate non-constant time preference into general equilibrium climate economy models, the development of an analytically tractable model of urban development with forward-looking investment decisions for a coastal city with rising sea level, the evaluation of carbon capture and storage as a means to avoid supply side leakage in a multi-country climate policy setting with strategic interactions, and an econometric study of the effect of arson on public health in Detroit.
