Research Scholar Integrated Biosphere Futures Research Group - Biodiversity and Natural Resources Program
Yazhen Wu joined the Integrated Biosphere Futures Research Group of the IIASA Biodiversity and Natural Resources Program in April 2023. Her work and research experience focus on the co-benefits and trade-offs of global and regional climate change mitigation pathways, especially the economic and ecosystem impacts of land-based mitigation strategies in the context of deep decarbonization targets.
One of her current research topics centers on understanding the interactions between climate policies and enhanced ecosystem conservation targets. She contributes to developing the Global Biosphere Management Model (GLOBIOM) and coupling it with the Global Forest Model (G4M) to assess the feasibility and cross-system impacts of land-based mitigation options. She also has experience working with computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, atmospheric chemical transport models (CTM), and health impact assessment models. In addition, she has been applying integrated assessment methods to investigate the intertwined challenges in energy-land-environment systems.
