Formulating and Solving Nonlinear Integrated Ecological-EconomicModels Using GAMS
TL;DR: This paper looks at the critical parameters that a modeler needs to be aware of when developing integrated economic-ecology models and some `tricks' to solve them with the minimum of effort through the use of the optimization software GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System).
