Climate change can cause large economic disruptions by introducing new risks to supply chains and changing demand patterns. This economic memo explores how climate change, via its impact on global temperatures, transmits to inflation in Europe, with a countryspecific focus on Denmark, Norway and...

The positive correlation between high temperatures and crime is well established. I consider how random, within-month daily high temperature and precipitation affects arrests rather than incidents. I analyze jail records of a Prohibition Era southern city with mean summer daily high temperatures...

Estimates of climate impacts show that extreme temperatures have large and wide-spread effects. To estimate these effects, a common approach counts days in different temperature ranges and considers how exposure to these distinct 'bins' affects outcomes. This often produces non-linear, U-shaped...

We examine the impact of temperature during the growing season on household diets in the subsequent year in rural India, a setting with a high prevalence of small family farms. High growing season temperatures reduce crop yields, which would presumably reduce incomes and home-grown food for...

Extreme heat imperils health and results in more emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations. Since temperature affects many individuals within a region simultaneously, these health impacts could lead to surges in healthcare demand that generate hospital congestion. Climate change will...

For time- and cost-efficient heat stress assessment procedures at workplaces or in experimental studies, short-time measurement periods (e.g. 1 h) are sometimes employed in lieu of whole shift observations assuming that the short time period will provide valid figures of equilibrium...

Der folgende Bericht untersucht die ökonomischen Auswirkungen von Hochwasser auf die Landwirtschaft in Deutschland anhand von Hochwasserrisikogebieten sowie die Auswirkungen von extremen Dürre und Frostereignissen auf landwirtschaftliche Erträge von Weizen, Roggen, Gerste, Raps, Kartoffeln,...
