| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to evaluate the impacts of environmental changes due to climate change on economic activities, the purposes of this study are to develop a computable general equilibrium model incorporated with environmental evaluation methods (a travel cost method and a contingent valuation method), and to analyze damages of the coastal erosion due to the sea level rise and some adaptation strategies numerically. The findings of this study are as follows. (1) The model developed in this study showed that it can evaluate changes in price and income that are not considered in a consumer surplus derived from a partial equilibrium approach. (2) Due to global warming, economic damages under the coastal erosion scenarios were shown to be more significant in most prefectures except Hokkaido and Tohoku region. (3) Some adaptation measures under the coastal erosion scenarios were shown to be more efficient in some prefectures in Kyushu region, Kinki region and the coast of Seto Inland Sea.
