Econometric studies for global heating have typically used regional or global temperature averages to study its long … memory properties. One typical explanation behind the long memory properties of temperature averages is cross …-sectional aggregation. Nonetheless, formal analysis regarding the effect that aggregation has on the long memory dynamics of temperature …

This paper investigates the impact of temperature on operating revenue as a measure of economic output for more than a … that combines information on firm financials, ownership and location with global data on heat and precipitation from 2002 … to 2012. The temperature-output-relationship takes a non-linear shape, with particularly strong negative effects at high …

We combine exogenous variation in temperature at the county-day level in the U.S. with daily time use data to examine … the effect of temperature on joint time use. We show that low temperatures reduce time spent with friends but increase … evidence of the effect of temperature on joint time use being location-dependent. We rationalize this finding using a model in …

We show that the occurrence of conflict events increases with extreme maximum … temperature days, whereas days with extreme minimum temperature decrease the occurrence of conflict. Because climate change makes … both maximum and minimum temperature extremes more likely, these effects partially offset each other on aggregate. However …
