Adapting to Climate Change : The Remarkable Decline in the U.S. Temperature-Mortality Relationship Over the 20th Century
Barreca, Alan I. - 2013
Adaptation is the only strategy that is guaranteed to be part of the world's climate strategy. Using the most comprehensive set of data files ever compiled on mortality and its determinants over the course of the 20th century, this paper makes two primary discoveries. First, we find that the...
