Optimal growth with adaptation to climate change
Dumas, Patrice; Ha-Duong, Minh - HAL - 2013
Many economic sectors, like housing or transportation, are exposed to climate and likely to suffer efficiency losses when climate changes. The global economy is far from dematerialized yet, these sectors represent a significant fraction of the existing capital stock. Using an optimal growth...

Using Maps of City Analogues to Display and Interpret Climate Change scenarios and their uncertainty
Kopf, Sebastian; Ha-Duong, Minh; Hallegatte, Stéphane - HAL - 2008
We describe a method to represent the results of climate simulation models with analogues. An analogue to a city A is a city B whose climate today represents A's simulated future climate. Climates were characterized and compared non-parametrically, using the 30-years distribution of three...

Drought and Civil War in Sub-Saharan Africa
Couttenier, Mathieu; Soubeyran, Raphaël - HAL - 2011
This paper contributes to the heated debate on the link between climate and civil war. We exploit a large dataset of a drought index commonly used in hydrology, the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). The PDSI is based on a hydrological model and is a cumulative measure that takes account of...
