Model Development for Sustainability Science and Strategy

This project involves the development and extension of the MIT modeling tools and the supporting analyses to better incorporate human-Earth system interactions in ways that produce greater understanding of the issues related to sustainability science and strategy. This research involves extension, revision, and testing of the model components and improvement of their linkages to allow more complete study of the human drivers of global change, climate-system response, the social and environmental implications, distributional impacts, and possible response strategies.
