Research on the effect of in utero shocks on health at birth may be influenced by in utero selection. This study outlines a conceptual framework and shows that the results of the standard empirical approach are biased if (i) the exposure changes the probability of fetal death and (ii) health...

Using data from 32 European countries for nearly 244 million live births between 1969 and 2021, this paper examines the effects of temperatures on birth rates. The results show that exposure to hot days slightly reduces birth rates five to eight months later, while much stronger negative effects...

This chapter reviews the empirical literature on the impacts of temperature and climate change on human pregnancies … year-to-year fluctuation in temperature. The insights that emerge from the review highlight that exposure to heat in the …, understanding the relationship between temperature and pregnancy-related outcomes is far from perfect. Importantly, the potential …

We analyze the impact of in utero temperature exposure on the birth weight and prevalence of low birth weight using … additional hot day (mean temperature >25°C) during the gestation period reduces birth weight by 0.5 grams. The second and third … trimesters appear to be slightly more sensitive to temperature exposure than the first trimester. We project that climate change …
