Assessing the chronic physical risks of climate change for the financial sector
Mexico's Central Bank conducted a comprehensive climate risk assessment using a suite of global models to evaluate physical and transition risks. We focus on chronic physical risks, using a spatially explicit integrated assessment model that differentiates between urban and non-urban areas, capturing local climate impacts. Two complementary assessments are presented. First, we construct an index ranking the exposure of commercial bank loan portfo…
National climate scenarios
The interactions between climate information producers and local decision‐makers have remained largely underexplored. The processes of building a local climate research agenda and informing adaptation policies are still unknown in many Global South countries. In this context, we discuss from a Human Geography and Environmental Social Studies of Science and Technology (STS) perspective how the climate knowledge geographical divide operates and enc…
Climate-induced mortality projections in Europe
Extreme heat is becoming more prevalent in Europe and its localized impacts on human health in urban environments are difficult to project. Our main objective was to develop a local-scale integrated assessment model (IAM) to explore the impacts of global warming on heat-related mortality in Europe, with a focus on urban areas. Using the apparent temperature metric, we develop several risk frameworks to project heat-related deaths and help policym…
Time of emergence of economic impacts of climate change
We introduce the concept of time of emergence of economic impacts (ToEI), which identifies the initial moment when the climate change impact signal exceeds a previously defined threshold of past economic output shocks in a given geographic area. We compute the ToEI using probabilistic climate change projections and impact functions from three integrated assessment models of climate change: DICE, RICE and CLIMRISK. Our results demonstrate that, in…
Methodological issues in natural disaster loss normalisation studies
The mixed results in Pielke (2020) for natural disaster loss normalisation studies are due to methodological differences. Flaws exist in commonly used normalisation approaches that assume unitary elasticities between exposure indicators and losses. We refute Pielke’s arguments that statistical studies estimating these relationships are biased. We conclude with an agenda for future research
