Estimating the Impact and Cost of Climate Impacts and Risk Assessment
The Challenge
The Approach
Our ongoing research is expanding this list with efforts focused on: winter recreation, vector borne disease, extreme events, temperature-driven morbidity and harmful algal blooms.
The Results
This work, using coordinated efforts from large interdisciplinary teams of Abt experts as well as external consultants, has resulted in the publication of seven peer reviewed articles in a special issue of the journal Climatic Change. This work also underpins much of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Climate Change Division’s widely publicized CIRA project report.
