Assessing the drivers of flood risk reduction actions of businesses - The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance - Issues and Practice
Abstract Climate change and socio-economic development are expected to increase flood risk. Businesses can prepare for increasing flood risk by taking flood damage mitigation (FDM) measures, or by purchasing insurance. However, little is known about the predictors of the uptake of various FDM measures by businesses. Our study uses survey data after flooding in the Netherlands in 2021 to understand the drivers of FDM actions of businesses.

Drivers of migration intentions in coastal Vietnam under increased flood risk from sea level rise - Climatic Change
Abstract Elevated flood risk due to sea level rise is expected to increase migration from coastal areas. This presents an enormous policy challenge given the hundreds of millions of people living in low-lying coastal areas globally. Despite its relevance, little empirical research has been done on what drives coastal residents to migrate or stay under increased flood risk.
Integrating Behavioral Theories in Agent-Based Models for Agricultural Drought Risk Assessments
Introduction As a result of climate change, the intensity, and duration of droughts are likely to increase in several regions around the world, particularly in low- and middle-income countries in tropical regions, which are disproportionally affected by climate change (Mendelsohn and Williams, 2006; Morton, 2007; IPCC, 2012; CRED and UNDRR, 2020).
