Research Description:
Rebecca is studying the link between human activity and the environment; specifically, air pollution and the economy. Air pollution affects human activity, and thus the economy, particularly via the effect on human health. By enhancing and coupling existing economic and air quality models, she will explore the importance of this link, and its significance for regulatory impact assessment.
