Climate Damages to the U.S. Economy from U.S. Power Sector Emissions

June 2025
Justin S. Mankin, Alexander R. Gottlieb, Christopher W. Callahan
Dartmouth Climate Modeling & Impacts Group
This study uses peer-reviewed climate damage attribution methods to estimate that climate damages to the U.S. economy caused by the U.S. power sector totaled $78 billion between 1973-2023.Read More →

Carbon majors and the scientific case for climate liability

April 2025
Christopher W. Callahan, Justin S. Mankin
Nature
This peer-reviewed article outlines a transparent, reproducible and flexible framework to formalize how end-to-end attribution could inform litigation by assessing whose emissions are responsible for which harms.Read More →

Critical Transitions in the Amazon Forest System

February 2024
Bernardo M. Flores, Encarni Montoya, Boris Sakschewski, Nathália Nascimento, Arie Staal, Richard A. Betts, Carolina Levis, David M. Lapola, Adriane Esquível-Muelbert, Catarina Jakovac, Carlos A. Nobre, Rafael S. Oliveira, Laura S. Borma, Da Nian, Niklas Boers, Susanna B. Hecht, Hans ter Steege, Julia Arieira, Isabella L. Lucas, Erika Berenguer, José A. Marengo, Luciana V. Gatti, Caio R. C. Mattos, Marina Hirota
Nature
This peer-reviewed study assesses five major drivers of water stress on Amazonian forests, and projects that, by 2050, 10% to 47% of Amazonian forests may face unexpected ecosystem transitions.Read More →

African Rice Cultivation Linked to Rising Methane

January 2024
Zichong Chen, Nicholas Balasus, Haipeng Lin, Hannah Nesser, Daniel J. Jacob
Nature Climate Change
In this peer-reviewed article, the authors assess methane emissions from rapidly increasing rice cultivation in Africa. The authors estimate that this source accounts for 7% of the current global rise in methane can be attributed to this source.Read More →

Climate warming and elevated CO2 alter peatland soil carbon sources and stability

November 2023
Nicholas O. E. Ofiti, Michael W. I. Schmidt, Samuel Abiven, Paul J. Hanson, Colleen M. Iversen, Rachel M. Wilson, Joel E. Kostka, Guido L. B. Wiesenberg, Avni Malhotra
Nature Communications
This peer-reviewed study examines the impact of warming and elevated atmospheric CO2 on the molecular composition of soil organic carbon. The authors' results indicate that climate change may destabilize carbon storage in peatlands.Read More →
