Publications Database

Welcome to the new Schulich Peer-Reviewed Publication Database!

The database is currently in beta-testing and will be updated with more features as time goes on. In the meantime, stakeholders are free to explore our faculty’s numerous works. The left-hand panel affords the ability to search by the following:

  • Faculty Member’s Name;
  • Area of Expertise;
  • Whether the Publication is Open-Access (free for public download);
  • Journal Name; and
  • Date Range.

At present, the database covers publications from 2012 to 2020, but will extend further back in the future. In addition to listing publications, the database includes two types of impact metrics: Altmetrics and Plum. The database will be updated annually with most recent publications from our faculty.

If you have any questions or input, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Abstract
Incorporating uncertainty into environmental evaluations improves decision-making and methods taken from various disciplines have been used to support this task. This paper contrasts the performance of two distinct approaches: the Datar-Mathews method pertains to real options valuation inherited directly from finance theory, while Simulation Decomposition (SimDec) has its origins in global sensitivity analysis. The two methods provoke different research questions, different modeling resolutions, and supply different analytics. Our analysis suggests that global sensitivity analysis should be used in the exploration and project planning stages, while real options are more useful for explicitly pricing tasks.
