A growing literature estimates the macroeconomic effect of weather using variations in annual country-level averages of … frequency or higher spatial resolution. To address this issue, we rely on global daily weather measurements with a 30-km spatial … resolution from 1979 to 2019 and construct 164 weather variables and their lags. We select a parsimonious subset of relevant …
