We study the impact of climate volatility on economic growth exploiting data on 133 countries between 1960 and 2005. We show that the conditional (ex ante) volatility of annual temperatures increased steadily over time, rendering climate conditions less predictable across countries, with...

We derive the optimal contributions to global climate policy when countries differ with respect to income level and pollution intensity. Countries' growth rates are determined endogenously, and abatement efficiency is improved by technical progress. We show that country heterogeneity has a...

Global temperature has gradually been warming, which has had different impacts on economic activities in various countries. How to mitigate the negative impact of global climate change on economic development has become an important issue of concern for both governments and academia. In this...

We investigate the long-term macroeconomic effects of climate change across 48 U.S. states over the period 1963.2016 using a novel econometric strategy which links deviations of temperature and precipitation (weather) from their long-term moving-average historical norms (climate) to various...

Abstract [EN]The article reports the issues corresponding to the climate variability and possibility of droughts in spatially distinct regions of Paraguay, the Chaco and the Oriental (Paraná Basin). Based on the GMT scripting approach and high-resolution datasets from the TerraClimate and...

This paper is designed to provide comprehensive details on the carbon markets across the major Asian economies and with specific attention to the Chinese carbon market. We particularly discuss the carbon markets across the major northeast (the People's Republic of China [PRC], Japan, and the...
