Risk Assessment in the Face of Climate Change
PRESENTED BY DR. SLAVA LYUBCHICH
Traditionally, long-term observations have been a key component in assessing the risks of weather-induced losses. However, most recent climate trends require the inclusion of future climate projections into the methods and models used to assess the risks. In this seminar, Dr. Slava Lyubchich will discuss how this step has important implications for building codes, pricing agricultural and home insurance.
