This paper presents and discusses some quantitative results obtained in assessing the economic impact of variations in tourism flows, induced by climate change, for some Mediterranean countries. Estimates by a regional climate model are used to build a Tourism Climate Index, which indicates the...

In this article, the virtual water exchange between Mediterranean countries is considered, reference being to the implicit water content of traded goods. Virtual water flows associated with trade in agricultural goods are estimated. Subsequently, a general equilibrium economic model is used to...

This paper deals with the construction, decomposition and comparison of water footprint time series in 40 countries and one aggregate macro-region, in the period 1995-2009. The analysis of the different “footpaths” allows us to investigate on the possible causes behind the time evolution of...
