This paper examines the possible contribution of evolutionary economics to macro-economic modelling of flood impacts to provide guidance for future economic risk modelling. Most macro-economic models start from a neoclassical economic perspective and focus on equilibrium outcomes, either in a...

Integrated hydro-economic models aim to capture the complexity of interactions between water and the economy. Three main approaches are distinguished: modular, holistic and computable general equilibrium models. The latter top-down models counterbalance the traditional emphasis on bottom-up...

The main objective of the study presented in this paper is to estimate the direct and indirect economic impacts of water quality policy scenarios in the Netherlands focusing on the reduction of emission levels of nutrients and a number of eco-toxicological substances. For this purpose, an...
