In this paper, we examine the relationship between temperature and human conception rates and project the impacts of …. However, some newborns may experience non-negligible consequences because of the altering in utero temperature exposure due to …

effects of temperature shocks on birth rates in the United States between 1931 and 2010. Our innovative approach allows for … fertility cost of temperature shocks by shifting conception month. This dynamic adjustment helps explain the observed decline in … on our analysis of historical changes in the temperature-fertility relationship, we conclude air conditioning could be …

This chapter reviews the empirical literature on the impacts of temperature and climate change on human pregnancies … year-to-year fluctuation in temperature. The insights that emerge from the review highlight that exposure to heat in the …, understanding the relationship between temperature and pregnancy-related outcomes is far from perfect.

We analyze the impact of in utero temperature exposure on the birth weight and prevalence of low birth weight using … additional hot day (mean temperature >25°C) during the gestation period reduces birth weight by 0.5 grams. The second and third … trimesters appear to be slightly more sensitive to temperature exposure than the first trimester. We project that climate change …
