Method for determining climatic design conditions based on the indoor thermal environment risk level

open access: yesEnergy and Built Environment, 2021
Currently, climatic design conditions are usually selected according to the frequency of climatic parameters themselves, which method cannot reflect the indoor thermal environment risk level of the building in design.

Climate Risk and Capital Structure [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
We use firm-level data that measure forward-looking physical climate risk to examine the impact of climate risk on capital structure. We find that greater physical climate risk leads to lower leverage in the post-2015 period (i.e., after the Paris Agreement and the first step of standardization of disclosure of climate risk information).
