Warming To Cause Harsher Weather, Study Says
from the Washington Post (Registration Required)
Extreme weather events -- including heat waves, floods and
drought -- are likely to become more common over the next century in
the United States because of human-generated greenhouse gas
emissions, according to a new study by Purdue University researchers.
The analysis, which is being published online this week in the
Proceedings of the National Academies of Science, examines how heat-
trapping gases linked to climate change may intensify precipitation,
drought and other weather conditions. Instances of extreme heat will
probably increase throughout the country, the scientists concluded,
and many areas will experience heavier downpours even if rain becomes
less frequent.
"I would be thrilled to be wrong," said Noah S. Diffenbaugh, a
climate scientist at the Purdue Climate Change Research Center and
the university's department of earth and atmospheric sciences. "It's
definitely going to be more extreme hot temperatures." http://

EAERE-FEEM-VIU European Summer School in Resource and Environmental
Economics-CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
Computable General Equilibrium Modeling in Environmental and
Resource Economics Venice, June 25th - July 1st, 2006
http://www.feem.it/ess06
Deadline for application: February 1st, 2006
The European Association of Environmental and Resources
Economists (EAERE), the Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) and the
Venice International University (VIU) are pleased to announce their
annual European Summer School in Resource and Environmental Economics
for postgraduate students.
The 2006 Summer School will take place from the 25th of June to
the 1st of July, at the VIU campus on the Island of San Servolo, in
Venice, located just in front of St. Mark’s Square. The theme of
this Summer School is Computable General Equilibrium Modeling in
Environmental and Resource Economics.
Environmental policies are increasingly assessed not only on the
basis of their environmental effectiveness but also depending on the
associated economic impacts with respect to efficiency and incidence.
These three dimensions of Sustainable Development, i.e. environmental
quality, economic performance and equity concerns are intertwined and
subject to tradeoffs. The quantification of tradeoffs requires the
use of numerical model techniques. Computable general equilibrium
models have meanwhile become an established analytical framework for
evaluating the economy-wide and environmental implications of policy
intervention on resource allocation and income of agents. In this
context, the Summer School provides a comprehensive introduction to
applied general equilibrium analysis of environmental policies by
internationally renowned experts. After presenting the basic
technique, the lecturers will discuss the theoretical background and
illustrative applications to four key areas of environmental
economics: (i) trade and environment, (ii) environmental regulation
and technological change, (iii) double (triple) dividend hypothesis
of green taxation, and (iv) international environmental agreements.
Practical instruction and hands-on training on how to develop and use
CGE models on GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System) will be provided.

ADMISSION AND APPLICATION
The Summer School is targeted to PhD students. Admission is
conditional on the presentation by each student of his/her doctoral
work; therefore applicants normally need to be advanced in their PhD
to have produced at least one substantive chapter, but not to have
completely finished their thesis. Admission to the School is open to
both European and non European citizens. Application is restricted to
current EAERE members. Women are encouraged to apply. Given the
highly interactive activities planned at the Summer School, the
number of participants is limited to 20. There is no participation
fee. Further information is available at the Summer School Website.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Scholarships covering living and travel expenses are available
and will be awarded to successful applicants conforming to the
combined criteria of merit and financial need.
For further information on application and funding please access
the Summer School Website at http://www.feem.it/ess06 or contact the
