Weather derivatives: Concept and application for their use in South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes
Recent innovations in energy markets suggest the possibility of addressing agricultural risk factors by issuing derivatives on weather elements. Such instruments appear particularly attractive, as asymmetric information and loss adjustment issues do not ...

WEATHER DERIVATIVE MARKETS

open access: yesKöz-gazdaság, 2020
A couple of decades ago weather related risk could only be covered by purchasing insurance facilities. As result of the convergence between insurance markets and capital markets and the process of securitization, weather derivative markets were born. Weather products can play an important and efficient role in alleviating weather related risk in case ...

A New Threshold Switching Device With Tunable Negative Differential Resistance Based on ErMnO3 Polymorphs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymorph engineering in ErMnO3 enables low‐voltage, forming‐free threshold switching with tunable negative differential resistance. Conducting orthorhombic regions embedded in an insulating hexagonal matrix provide controlled Joule‐heating‐enhanced Poole–Frenkel transport. The hexagonal phase prevents excessive heating and breakdown.

RAINFALL INSURANCE IN WHEAT PRODUCTION WITH WEATHER DERIVATIVES

open access: yesEkonomika Poljoprivrede (1979), 2011
It has been long known that weather conditions are the main factor of uncertainty in plant production. For this reason, an integrated system of risk management in plant production is necessary today, in order to somewhat compensate for the loss caused ...

Extracting Information from the Market to Price the Weather Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes
Weather derivatives were first launched in 1996 in the United-States to allow companies to protect themselves against weather fluctuations. Even now their valuation still remains tricky. Because their underlying is not a traded asset, the weather options

2D Magnetic and Topological Quantum Materials and Devices for Ultralow Power Spintronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D magnets and topological quantum materials enable ultralow‐power spintronics by combining robust magnetic order with symmetry‐protected, Berry‐curvature‐driven transport. Fundamentals of 2D anisotropy and spin‐orbit‐coupling induced band inversion are linked to scalable growth and vdW stacking.

A market for weather risk ? Worlds in conflict and compromising. [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we study the development of the market for weather derivatives in Europe. We show that weather derivatives conceived as financial products by their promoters have difficulties finding end-users.

Temperature‐Modulated Threshold Response in a Volatile Memristor: Toward a Biomimetic Polymodal Nociceptive System

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an artificial polymodal nociceptor whose firing threshold is actively modulated by temperature. A volatile TiN/TiOx/ZnO/TiOx/ITO memristor shows interfacial ion–driven resistive switching and membrane‐potential‐like dynamics, enabling temperature‐dependent nociceptive behavior.

Tail Risk in Weather Derivatives

open access: yesCommodities
Weather derivative markets, particularly Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Heating Degree Day (HDD) and Cooling Degree Day (CDD) futures, face challenges from complex temperature dynamics and spatially heterogeneous co-extremes that standard Gaussian ...
