A stochastic simulation approach to estimating the economic impacts of climate change in Bangladesh por Thurlow, James, Dorosh, Paul A., Yu, Winston

“…Using 10 climate projections, it is found that future anthropogenic climate change damages until 2050 are, on average, one‐fifth of those from historical climate variability. Climate change also alters the temporal distribution of damages and slows Bangladesh's long run shift (adaptation) into dry (winter) season rice production.…”
