The flowchart illustrates a three-phase process for a systematic literature review and meta-analysis of economic models of climate change. Phase one covers database selection from Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, development of the research question using the P I C O framework, contextualisation with global and economic parameters, and finalising search strings with filters for English language, publications from 2013 to 2022, and article types including journals, conferences, and book chapters. Phase two shows study selection, beginning with 463 records, removing 184 duplicates and four non-retrieved reports, and excluding 108 through title screening and further reports based on topic or lack of models. This results in 28 articles plus six from citation searches, with 34 included in review. Phase three presents the analysis, including describing studies, aligning with three research questions, categorising purposes and parameters, reviewing boundaries and methods, generating new themes, validating findings through frequency analysis, and presenting outcomes.Research methodology
