Cost-Benefit Analysis of Adaptation to Beach Loss Due to Climate Change in Japan

Cost-Benefit Analysis of Adaptation to Beach Loss Due to Climate Change in Japan

To measure economic effects of changes in environmental quality caused by climate change in Japan, we estimate beach loss damage costs in Japan and in each prefecture and evaluate the economic effectiveness of hypothetical adaptation measures to restore sandy beaches. For analyses, we use a computab...
