Quantifying Uncertainty and Sensitivity in Climate Risk Assessments

"We present a novel approach to quantify the uncertainty and sensitivity of risk estimates, using the CLIMADA open-source climate risk assessment platform. This work builds upon a recently developed extension of CLIMADA, which uses statistical modelling techniques to better quantify climate model ensemble uncertainty. Here, we further analyse the propagation of hazard, exposure and vulnerability uncertainties by varying a number of input factors based on a discrete, scientifically justified set of options."

“I show that, during a normal economic period, rather than having a disciplining effect, disclosure leads to banks increasing risk taking, consistent with banks facing pressure to offset the costs of
