Measuring the value of natural capital & assessing sustainability - lecture by Eli Fenichel, Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies
Eli Fenichel is an Associate Professor at Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. His research approaches natural resource management and sustainability as a portfolio management problem by considering natural resources as a form of capital. Eli is interested in how people can and do allocate natural resources and natural resource risks through time. This leads to a strong interest in feedbacks among humans, ecosystems, and the management of coupled ecological-economic processes. His research is applied in a wide variety of systems including: natural capital valuation, fisheries, infectious disease, groundwater, tropical forests, and grasslands.
