Wildfires are managed in a complex dynamic environment where suppression effort, environmental, and geographic characteristics all influence wildfire outcomes. Suppression effort is largely driven by threats to values at risk. We develop a stochastic dynamic programming model of wildfire...

We compare local and global polynomial solution methods for DSGE models with Epstein- Zin-Weil utility. We show that model implications for macroeconomic quantities are relatively invariant to choice of solution method but that a global method can yield substantial improve- ments for asset...
