• Remittances and Vulnerability in Developing Countries (2014, unknown): “…after controlling for output per capita, remittances increase significantly in response to different factors of vulnerability in recipient countries: the occurrence of natural disasters (Yang, 2008; Mohapatra et al., 2012; Ebeke and Combes, 2013) and a deterioration in the terms of trade (Table 4).”
• From Poverty to Disaster and Back: a Review of the Literature (2020, unknown): “After natural, economic, financial, and political shocks, these flows have been found to either remain stable or increase (Clarke and Wallsten 2004; Fagen 2006; Mohapatra et al. 2009; World Bank 2015).”
• Remittances and Economic Growth: Empirical Evidence from Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka (2012, unknown): “At least six studies have also found that the home country economic conditions affects the amount of remittance it receives (Clarke and Wallsten, 2004 ; Charmi et al, 2005; Mohapatra et al, 2009 ; Ratha, 2005 ; Spatafora, 2005 ; andWorld Bank, 2005 ).”
• Remittances and Household Consumption Instability in Developing Countries (2011, unknown): “…different regions in a country can be affected by different types of disasters in a given year and since remittances data is available only at annual frequency and at the country level, we would not be able to separate the response of remittances for a specific disaster (Mohapatra et al., 2009).”
• Impact of Migration on Economic and Social Development: A Review of Evidence and Emerging Issues (2011, unknown): “3 Remittance-receiving households in Ethiopia used their cash reserves and thus avoided having to sell their livestock to cope with drought (Mohapatra et al. 2009).”
• Financial instruments for disaster risk management and climate change adaptation (2015, unknown): “Mohapatra et al. (2009) cite examples from Ethiopia, showing that households receiving international remittances are less likely to sell productive assets as a response to disasters.”
• The poverty–vulnerability–resilience nexus: Evidence from Bangladesh (2013, unknown): “Some studies have focused on the role of a specific strategy (such as microfinance, out-migration or remittance) in determining households’ ability to rebound after a disaster (Parvin and Shaw, 2012; Mallick and Vogt, 2012; Mohapatra et al., 2012).”
