Economic valuation of climate change–induced mortality: age dependent cold and heat mortality in the Netherlands

Accounting for changes in both cold- and heat-related mortality for different age classes, the time dynamics associated with temperature-related mortality, demographic change and the urban heat island effect, this study examines the impacts of climate change on future mortality in the Netherlands and the related economic costs.
