Climate Migration Threshold Measurement

04/04/21

“How can we measure what thresholds to climate migration are significant?”

Climate migration thresholds are the basis for the entire study of the field. However, depending on the circumstances, some thresholds might be more or less significant than others. For example, a decline in a tourist economy from beach erosion might be more significant for the California Central Coast than housing damage from wildfires in the Sierra Mountains. By taking Climate Migration Threshold Measurement, we can quantify what to focus on and direct our resources towards there.
