Economics of Atmospheric Pollution (NATO ASI Series / Partnership Sub-Series/ 2. Environment)

This book deals with the economics of transboundary air pollution and climate change. It contains a profound analysis of uncertainty and learning with regard to global warming.
Specific attention is paid to non-linear and stepwise damage functions for global warming. The studies analyze various policy instruments to reduce both uniformly mixing and non-uniformly mixing pollutants. The synergistic effects of ozone precursors and their relation to acidification in Europe are also discussed.
