Dataset: Analysis: Calculating Near-Term and Long-Term U.S. Damages from U.S. Greenhouse Gas Transportation Sector Emissions

September 2025
Rick Duke
This dataset underlies a study that estimates the climate damages that would result from the transportation sector’s greenhouse gas emissions from 2025-2035 and 2025-2050, if unabated.Read More →

Refining Methods for Attributing Health Impacts to Climate Change: A Heat-Mortality Case Study in Zürich

September 2025
Rupert F. Stuart-Smith, Ana M. Vicedo-Cabrera, Sihan Li, Friederike E.L. Otto, Kristine Belesova, Andy Haines, Luke J. Harrington, Jeremy J. Hess, Rashmi Venkatraman, Thom Wetzer, Alistair Woodward & Kristie L. Ebi
Climatic Change
This paper provides refined methodologies for assessing heat mortality attributed to climate change, and found that almost 1,700 heat-related deaths can be attributed to climate change from 1969-2018.Read More →

Systematic Attribution of Heatwaves to the Emissions of Carbon Majors

September 2025
Yann Quilcaille et al.
Nature
This study finds that climate change contributed to the intensification and likelihood of 213 heatwaves between 2000 and 2023, and 180 carbon majors substantially contributed to that.Read More →

Global assessment of historical changes in extreme fire weather: Insight from CMIP6 ensembles and implications for probabilistic attribution to global warming

September 2025
Zhongwei Liu, Jonathan M. Eden, Bastien Dieppois, Igor Drobyshev, Folmer Krikken, Matthew Blackett
Global and Planetary Change
This peer-reviewed study developed a framework to examine how climate change may influence wildfire events using a multi-model analysis, which confirms an increase in probability and duration in wildfires due to global temperature anomalies.Read More →

A Causal Inference Framework for Climate Change Attribution in Ecology

August 2025
Joan Dudney, Laura E. Dee, Robert Heilmayr, Jarrett Byrnes, Katherine Siegel
Ecology Letters
This peer-reviewed study investigates advances in observational research design and causal inference of climate change impacts to biodiversity and ecosystems.Read More →

Analysis: Calculating Near-Term U.S. Damages from U.S. Greenhouse Gas Power Sector Emissions from 2025-2035

August 2025
Rick Duke
This analysis projects the climate damages that would result from the power sector's greenhouse gas emissions from 2025-2035, if unabated, to be at least $11.1 billion, and likely much more.Read More →

A call to refine fire attribution: expanding the FAR statistic to capture the complexity of Los Angeles extreme fires

August 2025
Chris Huntingford, Douglas I Kelley and Maria L F Barbosa
Environmental Research Letters
This perspective examines the causes of the January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, including climate change, human land use, campfires, faulty powerlines, and other human-driven factors, and suggests improvements to statistical analyses.Read More →

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case

August 2025
Laura J. Williams, Rachael V. Gallagher, Sami W. Rifai, Matthew A. Adeleye, Patrick J. Baker, David M. J. S. Bowman, Jake Eckersley, Jacqueline R. England, Michael-Shawn Fletcher, Pauline F. Grierson, Assaf Inbar, Jürgen Knauer, Clare M. Stephens, Raphaël Trouvé, Belinda E. Medlyn
Plants People Planet
This peer-reviewed study performs a meta-analysis of existing literature on attribution of vegetation change in Australia to climate variability, finding that such attribution is difficult to prove and suggesting new methodologies.Read More →

Methodological Considerations in Climate Attribution: Disparities in Representing the Impact of Climate Change during the 2020–21 Record Breaking Western United States Drought

July 2025
Sara Graves, Benjamin Bass, Stefan Rahimi, and Alex Hall
Journal of Climate
This peer-reviewed study evaluated methodologies and complexity of modeling drought in the Western United States and the impact of climate change.Read More →
