The political economy of natural disaster damage (2014, background): “…and Neumayer 2009, Keefer et al. 2011) as well as a nascent literature on the determinants of disaster damage (e.g. Mendelsohn and Saher 2011; Schumacher and Strobl 2011) we are the first to argue that the political economy of natural disaster damage predicts systematically lower damage for…”
Risk and Adaptation: Evidence from Global Hurricane Damages and Fatalities (2016, background): “Earlier tropical cyclone studies have noted that the damage in the United States appears to be an outlier compared to the rest of the world (Schumacher and Strobl 2011; Hsiang and Narita 2012).”
Informing Climate Adaptation: A Review of the Economic Costs of Natural Disasters, Their Determinants, and Risk Reduction Options (2012, unknown): “Schumacher and Strobl (2011) try to reconcile these results, finding that the relationship between GDP and disaster damage depends on the risk a country faces.”
Understanding the adaptation deficit: why are poor countries more vulnerable to climate events than rich countries? (2013, background): “Both these factors clearly matter (Bowen et al. 2012; Schumacher and Strobl 2011).”
