Forecasting civil conflict along the shared socioeconomic pathways
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 Climate change and armed civil conflict are both linked to socioeconomic development, although conditions that facilitate peace may not necessarily facilitate mitigation and adaptation to climate change. While economic growth lowers the risk of conflict,

Emissions and Emergence: a new index comparing relative contributions to climate change with relative climatic consequences [PDF]
, 2019 We develop a new index which maps relative climate change contributions to relative emergent impacts of climate change. The index compares cumulative emissions data with patterns of signal-to-noise ratios (S/N) in regional temperature (Frame et al., 2017)

Population development as a driver of coastal risk: Current trends and future pathways
Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures, 2023 Coastal areas are subject to hazards that can result in severe impacts due to the high concentration of people and assets in exposed locations. While climate-induced sea-level rise will exacerbate these hazards in the course of the 21st century, future ...
