This paper proposes a simple framework to model contextual influences on procedural decision making. In terms of …

More … importantly, though, effects of transparency differ depending on whether people are fast or slow in their decision making. In … particular, (only) slow decision makers react more positively (keeping the default) if nudging is made transparent. Moreover, the …

I propose a new conceptual framework to disentangle the impacts of weather and climate on economic activity and growth …: A stochastic frontier model with climate in the production frontier and weather shocks as a source of inefficiency. I … in both rich and poor countries; positively in cold countries and negatively in hot ones. Weather anomalies reduce …

There is limited public discourse and understanding about the history and science of weather and climate intervention …, though scientists have researched, tested and implemented numerous methods of weather modification for six decades.

We use a multilevel approach to characterize the relationship between weather shocks and (internal and international …) migration intentions. We combine individual survey data on migration intentions with measures of localized weather shocks for … the specification of weather anomalies that maximizes the goodness of fit of our empirical model. We then use this best …
