International Economics
Los Alamos economists have carried out economic studies for a number of countries in Latin America, the South Pacific, and Asia. These have used applications of econometric models, computable general equilibrium models, input/output analysis, and economic survey techniques to provide comprehensive analyses of national energy and economic situations.
