Increased temperature-related mortality is predicted to be one of the largest contributors to future economic damages … the effect of temperature on mortality differs substantially from its effect on ED visits: mortality increases under …-related deaths in others. Changes in temperature could also affect non-fatal health outcomes, whose aggregate societal burden is …

This paper reviews and extends the recent empirical literature on the impact of climate change on mortality and … adaptation in the United States. The analysis produces several new facts. First, the reductions in the impact of extreme heat on … mortality risk previously documented up to 2004 have continued up to 2019, consistent with continued investments in health …

mortality events and weather forecasts for a twelve-year period in the U.S. Results show that erroneously mild forecasts …We provide the first revealed preference estimates of the benefits of routine weather forecasts. The benefits come from … how people use advance information to reduce mortality from heat and cold. Theoretically, more accurate forecasts reduce …

We survey the microeconomics literature that studies how firms in the developing world are adapting to extreme weather … exposure. We discuss benchmarks for measuring adaptation progress at the firm, industry and macroeconomic level …

Using weekly mortality data for London spanning 1866-1965, we analyze the changing relationship between temperature and …. The resulting change in the temperature-mortality relationship meant that thousands of heat-related deaths-equal to 0 … mortality as the city developed. Our results show that both warm and cold weeks were associated with elevated mortality in the …

I formally relate the consequences of climate change to the time series variation in weather extensively explored by … reduced-form weather regressions. Applying this new method, I find that an additional 2°C of global warming would reduce …

Do people move as a result of temperature shocks? Documenting weather as a push factor for migration is crucial for … informing policy related to climate change and adaptation. This paper studies the impacts of high-temperature days on out …-term temperature variations that are commonly leveraged in the literature. We provide evidence consistent with the idea that the effect …

This paper employs a stochastic frontier approach to examine how climate change and extreme weather affect U ….S. agricultural productivity using 1940-1970 historical weather data (mean and variation) as the norm. We have four major findings …. First, using temperature humidity index (THI) load and Oury index for the period 1960-2010 we find each state has …
