My research tends to be quite interdisciplinary and policy-oriented, integrating economic research with environment and energy related regulations, climate change mitigation and adaptation policies, and natural resource management.
My recent focus is on the future-oriented research of climate change impacts mainly on agriculture and energy industries. In one of my studies, I look at how climate change induced changes in future water supply are supposed to affect agriculture at a global scale under changing food consumption patterns. Additionally, I work on estimating changes in the patterns of energy dependency under changing climate conditions.
