SUMMARY:Sonia - "Impact of Climate Change on Agricultural Output: Evidence from Pakistan" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nGlobal warming is a major ecological concern of the 21st century. The increasing trends in climate change over the past few decades have immensely affected the agricultural sector\, as agricultural output is heavily dependent on variation in weather and climate. Based on this notion\, I am looking into the impact of climate change on  agricultural output over time. where the agricultural output is the production of five major crops\, namely Wheat\, maize\, rice\, cotton and sugarcane of Pakistan. The type of data used for this study is panel data\, which is comprised of the cross-sectional data on the production of crops and time series data on the climate variables i.e. minimum temperature\, maximum temperature and rainfall from 1981 to 2018. A production function approach will be applied for analyzing the impacts of climate change on the production of major crops.

SUMMARY:Bushan Mohan - "Modelling returns to education in a developing economy context" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThis paper provides a brief overview of the models being used to determine the returns to education in Guyana’s labour market. The models are limited to the Quarterly LFS data published by the Guyanese Government since this is the only dataset available. The paper explains the use of the ORU approach to returns to education and model taking human capital\, job-related and regional characteristics hence leading to an Oaxaca decomposition as prescribed by empirical studies.
