'Natural' disaster, conflict and aid allocation
Rodella-Boitreaud, Aude-Sophie; Wagner, Natascha - 2011
This paper looks into aid allocation in the response to multiple crises, focusing more specifically on the cases of concomitance between so-called 'natural' hazard/disaster and conflict situations. Over 150 natural disasters have occurred alongside complex political crises in the past seven...

Irrigation, adaptation and climate change : panel data evidence for maize in Mexico
Gonzalez, Jesus Arellano - 2023
In this paper, I use an 18-year long panel data set of maize yields and high resolution weather data at the municipality level in Mexico to shed light on the differentiated effects that climate change may have in rainfed and irrigated agriculture. I find that rainfed maize is sensitive to both...

Climate change and U.S. agriculture : accounting for multidimensional slope heterogeneity in panel data
Keane, Michael P.; Neal, Timothy - In: Quantitative economics : QE ; journal of the … 11 (2020) 4, pp. 1391-1429
We study potential impacts of future climate change on U.S. agricultural productivity using county‐level yield and weather data from 1950 to 2015. To account for adaptation of production to different weather conditions, it is crucial to allow for both spatial and temporal variation in the...

Robust Dynamic Space-Time Panel Data Models Using?-Contamination : an Application to Crop Yields and Climate Change
Baltagi, Badi H.; Bresson, Georges; Chaturvedi, Anoop; … - 2023
This paper extends the Baltagi et al. (2018, 2021) static and dynamic ?-contamination papers to dynamic space-time models. We investigate the robustness of Bayesian panel data models to possible misspecification of the prior distribution. The proposed robust Bayesian approach departs from the...

Does corruption matter for the environment? : panel evidence from China
Liao, Xianchun; Doğan, Eyüp; Baek, Jungho - 2016
This paper examines the income-energy-SO2 emissions nexus by taking a corruption variable into account. To that end, the panel cointegration methods are applied to 29 Chinese provinces over 1999-2012. The authors' empirical evidence shows that an increase in the number of anticorruption cases...
