I propose a new conceptual framework to disentangle the impacts of weather and climate on economic activity and growth …: A stochastic frontier model with climate in the production frontier and weather shocks as a source of inefficiency.

The effects of extreme weather events, such as heat waves and droughts, are taken into account in both global and … European policies.
