Natural Disasters, Growth and Institutions: A Tale of Two Earthquakes (2014, positive): “On the positive side ( > 0⁄ ), we might observe a process of “creative destruction” (Skidmore and Toya, 2002; Cuaresma et al., 2008).”
Disasters and Development: Natural Disasters, Credit Constraints and Economic Growth (2014, positive): “However, the possibility of such a positive productivity effect resulting from an natural disaster occurrence has been disputed by Hallegatte and Dumas (2009), while Crespo Cuaresma et al. (2008) suggest that only developed countries are likely to benefit from any such mechanism.”
Natural disasters and labor markets (2017, background): “On the other hand, Skidmore and Toya (2002) find a positive correlation between the frequency of climatic disasters and growth in total factor productivity and GDP. Cuaresma, Hlouskova, and Obersteiner (2008) argue that ’creative destruction’ and technology upgrading in the aftermath of disasters ca”
The Growth Aftermath of Natural Disasters (2009, positive): “Following Skidmore and Toya’s findings, Cuaresma, Hlouskova, and Obersteiner (2008) examined the long-run effects of natural disasters by analyzing the direct relationship between foreign technology absorption and disaster incidences.”
The economics of natural disasters in a developing country: The case of Vietnam (2010, background): “This finding provides tentative support for the hypothesis that regions that have more access to reconstruction funds will grow faster following a disaster (Noy, 2009); and also appears to support the observation that only regions with high levels of development can enjoy capital upgrading after the”

DISASTER IMPACT AND INPUT–OUTPUT ANALYSIS (2014, background): “This point is the motivation for Cuaresma et al. (2008), in which the relationship between technological transfer and disaster impact in developing countries in the long run was examined.”
Creative Disasters? Flooding Effects on Capital, Labour and Productivity Within European Firms (2009, background): “The magnitude of the disaster effect on a firm is not solely determined by the magnitude of the natural process itself (e.g., Richter-scale, water level) but also by company-specific factors, such as investment strategies (Tol and Leek 1999; Skidmore and Toya 2002), factor composition, the level of ”
