Bayesian predictive analysis of natural disaster losses
Deng, Min; Aminzadeh, Mostafa; Ji, Min - In: Risks : open access journal 9 (2021) 1/12, pp. 1-23
Different types of natural events hit the United States every year. The data of natural hazards from 1900 to 2016 in the US shows that there is an increasing trend in annul natural disaster losses after 1980. Climate change is recognized as one of the factors causing this trend, and predictive...

An uncertainty approach to modelling climate change risk in South Africa
Cullis, James; Alton, Theresa; Arndt, Channing; … - 2015
This study represents the first attempt at an integrated approach to assessing the potential impacts of climate change on the national economy of South Africa via a number of (but not necessarily all) impact channels. The study focuses on outcomes by about 2050. The results show the multiple...

Closed-form integrated assessment and uncertainty
Traeger, Christian - 2015
is comparable to numeric models used in policy advising. Uncertainty surrounding climate change remains large. The closed …-form expressions of welfare loss from shocks and epistemological uncertainty identify the interaction of (intertemporal) risk attitude …, distributional moments, and the climatic shadow values. Welfare gains from reducing uncertainty about temperature feedbacks are much …

Morocco's unique situation in the climate change arena : an analysis of climate forecasts and their link to agriculture
Ouraich, Ismail; Tyner, Wallace E. - 2014
Alterations in rainfall patterns and increasing temperatures due to climate change will most likely translate into yield reductions in desirable crops. In this particular context, the object of this paper is to lay down findings and results for projected yield impacts in Morocco using a...

Technology transfers for climate change
Elsayyad, May; Morath, Florian - 2013
This paper considers investments in cost-reducing technology in the context of contributions to climate protection. Contributions to mitigating climate change are analyzed in a two-period model where later contributions can be based on better information, but delaying the contribution to the...

Explosive oil prices
Gronwald, Marc - 2013
This paper deals with three aspects of spectacular oil price episodes such as the one witnessed in 2008. First, the concept of temporary explosiveness is proposed as an empirical method for capturing this type of behavior. The application of a recently proposed recursive unit root test shows...
