We study the effect of temperature on economic development on the sub-national level, employing cross-sectional data … temperature-income relationship, our setting allows us to exploit sub-national heterogeneity through the inclusion of country … fixed effects and mitigate omitted variable bias. We find no negative relationship between regional temperature and four …

In this paper, we examine the relationship between temperature and human conception rates and project the impacts of … climate change by the mid-twenty-first century. Using complete administrative data on 6.8 million pregnancies between 1980 and … exposure, but a partial rebound is observed after that. Absent adaptation, climate change is projected to increase seasonal …

A critical part of adapting to the higher temperatures that climate change brings will be the deployment of existing … technologies to new sectors and regions. This paper examines the evolution of the temperature-mortality relationship over the … mean temperature exceeding 80° F has declined by about 70%. Almost the entire decline occurred after 1960. There are about …

, theoretically derived, fixed effects structure, we find significant negative short-run effects of high temperature on exports. A … month with an average temperature above 30 °C implies export losses of around three percent. These effects are increasing in … temperature shocks. We find that equilibrium adjustments reduce the economic costs by around 20 percent, but significant costs …
