　　内容介绍：

　　This lecture describes the origins and development of the field of integrated assessment modeling and the provides a general overview of the Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM). The lecture describes how the field of integrated assessment has been shaped by an evolving set of problems. It uses GCAM as an example throughout, but references other researchers’ work as well.
