The Ramsey Model with Logitic Population Growth

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed how the Ramsey growth model is affected by logistic growth of population, comparing it with the classic Ramsey model and showed that there is a unique nontrivial steady state of the model and that the parameters of the logistic equation play no role in determining long run equilibrium per worker level of consumption and capital.

Transient Temperature Response Modeling in IAMs: The Effects of Over Simplification on the SCC

TL;DR: All three prominent IAMs fail to fully capture important characteristics in the dynamics of temperature response, especially for high equilibrium climate sensitivities, which has serious implications given these models are often run with distributions for the equilibrium climate sensitivity.
