Although significant progress has been made in studies of the greenhouse effect in many of the natural sciences, relatively little effort has been devoted to the downstream assessment of the economic and social impacts of the greenhouse effect. This proposal is designed to improve understanding of both substantive and methodological developments concerning the economic and social impacts of global environmental change, through both a regular workshop reviewing ongoing research and a program of research focusing on specific areas of global environmental change. The workshop will involve bringing together social scientists and others working on energy and resource economics, forestry, agriculture, and methodology to improve both research techniques and substantive knowledge of the likely impacts arising from the greenhouse effect. The other major task will focus on developing an hedonic model of the value of climatic variables for use in evaluating potential climatic changes. This technique will provide a much more detailed analysis of the economic impact of climatic change than have past studies, and in addition will provide regional detail on the distribution of the impacts of climatic change.

虽然在研究中取得了重大进展， 温室效应在许多自然科学中， 很少有人致力于下游评估， 温室效应的经济和社会影响。 这 建议的目的是增进对实质性和 经济、社会和文化权利的经济和 全球环境变化的社会影响， 定期研讨会审查正在进行的研究和方案， 侧重于全球环境的具体领域的研究 变化 该研讨会将涉及汇集社会 科学家和其他从事能源和资源经济学的人， 林业，农业，以及改进这两方面研究的方法 技术和可能影响的实质性知识 由温室效应引起的。 另一项主要任务将 重点是开发气候价值的享乐模型， 用于评估潜在气候变化的变量。 这 技术将提供更详细的分析， 气候变化的经济影响比过去的研究， 此外，还将提供关于 气候变化的影响。
