professor of environmental and resource economics

My University page

I am Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Aberdeen Business School where I hold the Chair in Environmental and Resource Economics.

I study the design and functioning of environmental markets and incentive-based policy mechanisms for pollution control and biodiversity conservation. Another focal point of my research relates to the interplay between environmental policy and technological change.

I often combine economic theory with laboratory experiments to investigate the performance of environmental policies, and to study economic decision-making in environmental markets.
