Frances C. Moore is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy at UC Davis, working at the intersection of environmental economics and climate science. Her research seeks to improve our understanding of the economic and social impacts of climate change and to better understand our ability to adapt to those impacts. To do this she combine econometric analysis, experimental approaches, climate model output, and economic modeling. Her work contributes to estimates of the aggregate costs of climate change, including the social cost of carbon. Her work has been published in Nature, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Nature Climate Change and the Journal of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists.
