I am an environmental economist working on the design and evaluation of economic policies that address market failures in the provision of environmental services, with particular emphasis on payment for ecosystem services (PES) programs, nature-based climate solutions, and environmental credit markets. My recent research examined: (i) the cost-effectiveness of payment for ecosystem services programs in mitigating flood damage, (ii) the optimal structure of payments and penalties to enhance the performance of environmental services programs, and (iii) the interaction between land conservation subsidies and environmental credit markets.
