Adaptation to Climate Change: Evidence from US Agriculture (2016, positive): “A basic measure of profits for a given year can be constructed by differencing these two variables (i.e. profits2000 = revenues2000 - costs2000 for years in which data are available, and and this approach as recently been used in similar settings (Deschênes and Greenstone, 2007).”
Climate Change Policy: What Do the Models Tell Us? (2013, neutral): “One of the earliest studies of agricultural impacts, including adaptation, is Mendelsohn, Nordhaus, and Shaw (1994); more recent ones include Deschenes and Greenstone (2007) and Schlenker and Roberts (2009).”
Estimating the Impact of Drought on Agriculture Using the U.S. Drought Monitor (2018, neutral): “However, Fisher et al. (2012) find different results when replicating the Deschênes and Greenstone (2007) analysis while including inventory adjustments and correction for data irregularities.”
More than Mean Effects: Modeling the Effect of Climate on the Higher Order Moments of Crop Yields (2012, neutral): “…Adams (1989); Kaiser et al. (1993); Mendelsohn, Nordhaus, and Shaw (1994); Adams et al. (1995); Schlenker and Roberts (2006); Schlenker, Hanemann, and Fisher (2006); Deschenes and Greenstone (2007); Schlenker and Roberts (2009a); Ashenfelter and Storchmann (2010); and Hertel and Rosch (2010).”
Temperature and the Allocation of Time: Implications for Climate Change (2014, neutral): “…empirical strategies have been employed in other studies examining various aspects of climate change ðe.g., Schlenker, Hanemann, and Fisher 2005; Deschenes and Greenstone 2007, 2011Þ. 5 In our original specification, we also included sleep because it may be affected through changes in the…”
Climatic Factors as Determinants of International Migration (2015, positive): “Most obviously, climate change has the greatest impact upon countries which rely more heavily upon agricultural activities (Deschenes and Greenstone 2007), which in turn might encourage international migration directly.”
Responsiveness of Crop Yield and Acreage to Prices and Climate (2016, positive): “Other studies have used the Ricardian approach to estimate the impact of climate on land rent or value of farmland while allowing for the possibility of adapting to it (Mendelsohn, Nordhaus, and Shaw 1994; Deschênes and Greenstone 2007; Schlenker, Hanemann, and Fisher 2005, 2006).”
Climate Change and Economic Growth: Evidence from the Last Half Century (2008, neutral): “Meanwhile, there are well-established, substantial effects of temperature on mortality (e.g. Curriero et al. 2002; Deschenes and Moretti 2007; Deschenes and Greenstone 2007), temperature on crime (e.g. Field 1992; Jacob et al. 2007), and drought on conflict (Miguel et al. 2004), all of which have…”
Crime, weather, and climate change (2014, background): “…dollars.9 In interpreting these results, it is important to keep in mind that climate change will affect humans in a variety of ways (Tol, 2009; Deschenes and Greenstone, 2007, 2011; Hsiang, Meng, and Cane, 2011), and that a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis of climate change should consider…”
Climate Change and Labour Allocation in Rural Mexico: Evidence from Annual Fluctuations in Weather (2018, neutral): “To identify the impacts of weather on labor allocation , we use a panel data approach that controls for time - invariant individual and state - year fixed effects ( Deschenes and Greenstone 2007 , Guiteras 2008 , Schlenker and Roberts 2009 ) .”
