Economics of Climate Management

Webinar

Duct-Tape Belinda Storey is leading the Duct-Tape project in the Extreme Events and the Emergence of Climate Change, a five year, $10M research programme funded by MBIE. This project couples rainfall and river flow models with investment criteria to determine how extreme rainfall events affect the financial viability of river-based infrastructure.
