RESEARCH TOOLS
One of the main contributions of RFF research has been in the development and refinement of research methodologies that advance the practice of social science research and enable improved policy analysis.
RFF contributions in this area include improved approaches to valuation of environmental, health and other non-market goods, cost-estimation, risk and uncertainty analysis and communication, general equilibrium modeling, refinement of statistical methods, large-scale analytic models, and innovative mapping and spatial analysis techniques.
