Broadly, my research explores the economics of natural resource extraction, conservation, and natural disasters
His current research explores the role of property rights in the economic impact of natural disasters, the use of conservation for strategies to control for competitive incentives in the commons, and how global trade is affected by criminal activities in the ocean.
