TL;DR: MERGE provides a framework for thinking about climate change management proposals and is designed to be sufficiently flexible to be used to explore alternative views on a wide range of contentious issues, eg costs, damages, valuation and discounting.

TL;DR: Exploitation of non-wood resources would provide profits while conserving Amazon forests as discussed by the authors, yet little is done to promote their development, which is a concern of mine owners.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the impact of climate change on rich and poor countries across the world and found that poor countries will suffer the bulk of the damages from climate change and argued that the primary reason why poor countries are so vulnerable is their location.

TL;DR: This article showed that future increases in income are likely to double tropical cyclone damage even without climate change, but the result depends on the parameters of the damage function, and almost all of the tropical cyclones damage from climate change tends to be concentrated in North America, East Asia and the Caribbean-Central American region.

TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of more than 9,000 farmers across 11 African countries, a cross-sectional approach was used to estimate how farm net revenues are affected by climate change compared with current mean temperature.
