3. Major fields of scholarly and professional interest

My major field of interest includes interdisciplinary analyses of climate policies and low-carbon
economy transitions. In my professional practice and scholarly research I conduct multi-attribute
quantitative and qualitative analyses of climate policies against the criteria of environmental
effectiveness, economic efficiency, social and political acceptance, with the goal of designing long-
lasting and effective climate policy solutions. This field of interest applies to all of the following sub-
fields:

    1. Public opinion survey research: collection, parameterization, and statistical analyses of
       behavioural survey data to explore public support for climate policy, economic growth, and
       consumer preferences for low-carbon technology, to design targeted policy proposal and
       communication techniques.

    2. Comparative policy analysis: cross-jurisdictional analysis of different types of climate policies
       to identify best practices for implementing effective, equitable, and politically acceptable
       climate policies.

    3. Energy-economy modelling: development and use of technologically explicit and behaviorally
       realistic energy-economy models to assess economic and environmental impacts of climate
       policies and design policy proposals.

    4. Public policy development: academic and applied public policy-making, including the
       development of policy options and decision materials, governance processes for the
       implementation of policies and legislation at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels.

    5. Teaching and mentoring: developing course curriculum and engaging in thesis topics that
       address the issues of low-carbon economy transitions and climate policy design.
