dc.description.abstractThis policy brief explores the economic implications of climate change for the three deltas of the "DEltas, Vulnerability, and Climate Change: Migration as an Adaptation (DECCMA)" project: Volta (Ghana), Mahanadi (India) and Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM, Bangladesh and the Indian Bengal delta in India). The Delta Computable General Equilibrium (Delta-CGE) model simulates how the economy might react to impacts of climate change under three different economic baseline narratives. The scenarios of DECCMA are based on the new global scenario framework developed for the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).en
