Recent decades have seen a rise in the use of physics methods to study different societal
phenomena. This development has been due to physicists venturing outside of their …

This article reviews methods that use historical data on weather, climate, economic activity,
and other variables to statistically measure the effect of climate on economic outcomes. This …

Estimates of global economic damage caused by carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions can
inform climate policy 1, 2, 3. The social cost of carbon (SCC) quantifies these damages by …

Climate scientists have spent billions of dollars and eons of supercomputer time studying
how increased concentrations of greenhouse gases and changes in the reflectivity of the …

Using 40 countries' subnational data, we estimate age-specific mortality-temperature
relationships and extrapolate them to countries without data today and into a future with …

This paper examines how subsistence farmers respond to extreme heat. Using microdata
from Peruvian households, we find that high temperatures reduce agricultural productivity …

Water resources are an important part of the ecosystem. The nexus of extreme weather
events and water quality is of great significance in the climate change economics theory and …

This study examines the impact of 2404 global extreme climate events on natural gas
abnormal returns (ARs) and identifies the driving factors of the impact. The findings show …

Transitioning to an equitable electricity sector requires a deep understanding of a warming
climate's impacts on vulnerable populations. A vital climate adaptation measure is deploying …

Earlier meta-analyses of the economic impact of climate change are updated with more
data, with three new results:(1) The central estimate of the economic impact of global …
