A Storm is Brewing: The Economic Impacts of Changing Storm Patterns under Climate Change 1: Nova School of Business and Economics, Portugal; 2: Banco de Portugal As the world warms, the likelihood of achieving the Paris targets becomes increasingly unlikely. The change in frequency and intensity of extreme weather events attributed to man-made Climate Change poses a risk to contemporaneous societies. Understanding those risks and mapping the potential extent of damage from Climate Change induced extreme weather events is key in a changing world. To this end, a multidisciplinary approach to the problem is called for. By combining 3-hourly, downscaled climate data on mean sea level pressure under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 2.6, 4.5, and 8.5, estimates of economic damages from storms, sub-national GDP data, and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) projections, this study attempts to map the spatially explicit economic impacts of changing storm patterns under Climate Change in the Iberian Peninsula between 2020 and 2100. Estimates are spatially explicit at the 0.11º level, contributing to better-informing policymakers on the economic risks of climate change by assessing the costs under different emission scenarios. | |
