We develop a unifying approach to estimating climate impacts and adaptation, and apply it to study the impact of … identify both the short- and long-run impacts on economic outcomes, and measure adaptation directly as the difference between … those responses. As a result, we identify adaptation without making extrapolations of weather responses over time or space …

This study comprehensively assesses the immediate effects of extreme weather conditions and high concentrations of ambient air pollution on population health. For Germany and the years 1999 to 2008, we link the universe of all 170 million hospital admissions, along with all 8 million deaths,...

This paper presents a novel way to disentangle inequality aversion over time from inequality aversion between regions in the computation of the Social Cost of Carbon. Our approach nests a standard efficiency based Social Cost of Carbon estimate and an equity weighted Social Cost of Carbon...

I estimate the level of emissions cost pass-through to hourly wholesale electricity prices in Germany, based on spot market data. I control for contemporaneous shocks to demand and supply by constructing a detailed supply curve for fossil generation, and intersecting it with residual demand for...

Climate change will further increase not only the frequency but also the intensity of extreme weather events. As a result, weather conditions favouring pneumonia occurrence - suddenly warmer weather during cold seasons - can increase due to higher meteorological variability which is also linked...
