Global Food Trade in a Spatially Correlated ClimateGlobal scale events, such as climate change, generate winners and losers across the planet. The consequences of such global inequality depends on the ability of trade to smooth away spatial differences. When the climate is more spatially correlated, a location surrounded by similarly affected neighbors must overcome larger trade costs in order to trade with distant, ...

Do pregnancy-related risk factors cause psychopathology? The importance of family-based designsPrevious research has found that pregnancy-related risk factors (e.g., maternal smoking, maternal stress, fetal growth restriction, preterm birth, etc.) are associated with offspring neurodevelopmental problems. These results have led researchers to make strong causal inferences, consistent with the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease Hypothesis. Yet, great skepticism remains about ...
