Coastal flood damage and adaptation costs under 21st century sea-level rise (2014, background): “This process is expected to continue in the coming decades, but capturing this in global scenarios would be a major research undertaking as the drivers of migration and urbanization are complex and variable (28).”
Focus on environmental risks and migration: causes and consequences (2015, background): “The principal drivers of migration outcomes are those of the scale, connectivity and openness of the economy in the regions of the world, along with the policy stance and governance of that economy, its labour markets and social tensions and conflict (see Black et al 2011a on the global drivers).”
Securing blue wealth: The need for a special sustainable development goal for the ocean and coasts (2014, background): “Given that this affects all dimensions of human security, combined effects could induce long-term migration [36], [37], [38].”

Design, Monitoring and Evaluation of Resilience Interventions: Conceptual and Empirical Considerations (2015, background): “As documented in the literature (Black et al. 2011), migration can lead to positive changes but can – and does – also lead to negative outcomes.”
