    Content: This paper examines whether and how climatic shocks influence individual migration decisions. The authors use census microdata across 64 countries over the period 1960 to 2012, covering 442 million individual records, combined with geo-referenced temperature and precipitation data summarized for each origin and destination administrative unit. Migration is identified when an individual changed a place of usual residence one, five, or ten years ago to a new major administrative unit in the same country. Given an exceptionally large number of observations, the authors apply a two-step approach to analyze the relationship between exposure to climatic shocks and migration. First, the authors use random forest models to uncover that in many countries climatic shocks are as important as better-known individual-level covariates in determining migration decisions. This observation serves as a yardstick for the second step of the analysis. For a subset of countries, where rainfall shocks play an important role in migration, the authors compare internal migration patterns across time by examining whether a region experiencing positive or negative rainfall shocks observed higher or lower migration. The authors find that negative rainfall shocks suppress outmigration particularly for low-income countries. The opposite is true for positive rainfall shocks whereby migration is found to increase, especially for lower-income countries. The finding supports the liquidity constraint argument whereby adverse climatic conditions can disrupt migration financing and consequently suppress ability to migrate

    Content: This book brings together ten original empirical works focusing on the influence of various types of spatial mobility – be it international or national– on partnership, family and work life. The contributions cover a range of important topics which focus on understanding how spatial mobility is related to familial relationships and life course transitions. The volume offers new insights by bringing together the state of the art in theoretical and empirical approaches from spatial mobility and international migration research. This includes, for example, studies that investigate the relationships between international migration and changing patterns of partnership choice, family formation and fertility. Complementing to this, this volume presents new empirical studies on job-related residential mobility and its impact on the relationship quality of couples, family life, and union dissolution. It also highlights the importance of research that looks at the reciprocal relationships between mobility and life course events such as young adults leaving the parental home in international migration context, re-arrangements of family life after divorce and spatial mobility of the elderly following life transitions. The scholarly work included in this volume does not only contribute to theoretical debates but also provide timely empirical evidence from various societies which represent the common features in the dynamics of spatial mobility and migration.

    Content: Der Kenntnisstand in Kürze Die Folgen des Klimawandels für die Gesundheit sind bereits heute spürbar und als zunehmende Bedrohung für die Gesundheit in Österreich einzustufen. Die stärksten Gesundheitsfolgen mit breiter Wirkung sind durch Hitze zu erwarten. Veränderungen in Ökosystemen begünstigen zudem das Auftreten von Pollenallergien und durch Vektoren übertragene Infektionskrankheiten. Mit vermehrten Gesundheitsfolgen ist auch auf Grund von extremeren Niederschlägen und Stürmen zu rechnen. Darüber hinaus können die demografische Struktur, die Alterung der Bevölkerung und Migration die Anzahl jener Menschen erhöhen, welche gesundheitlichen Risiken ausgesetzt sind. Dabei sind die gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen des Klimawandels nicht gleichmäßig auf die Bevölkerungsgruppen verteilt. Ältere Menschen sind beispielsweise physiologisch anfälliger für extreme Hitze, während Migranten mit geringeren sozioökonomische Ressourcen über eine geringere Anpassungsfähigkeit verfügen. Es gibt zahlreiche Handlungsoptionen, um die Gesundheitsfolgen des Klimawandels abzuschwächen und die Vulnerabilität zu reduzieren. Diese reichen von besserer Information schwer erreichbarer Personen und städteplanerischen Maßnahmen gegen Hitze bis hin zur Bekämpfung stark allergener Pflanzen sowie einer integralen Ereignisdokumentation von Extremwetterereignissen für gezieltere Maßnahmen bei gestärkter Eigenvorsorge. Die Früherkennung von Infektionserkrankungen erfordert eine Verbesserung der Kompetenzen von Bevölkerung und Gesundheitspersonal. Ebenso kann einer klimabedingt wachsenden gesundheitlichen Ungleichheit durch gesteigerte Gesundheitskompetenz vorgebeugt werden. Gleichzeitig können aber Chancen für Klima und Gesundheit genutzt werden. So kann bei der Ernährung insbesondere die Reduktion des überhöhten Fleischkonsums die Gesundheit verbessern und Treibhausgas-Emissionen (THG) reduzieren. In der Mobilität reduziert eine Verlagerung zu mehr aktiver Mobilität (zu Fuß gehen sowie Rad fahren) und öffentlichem Verkehr insbesondere in Städten gesundheitsrelevante Schadstoff- und Lärmbelastung; sie führt beiderseits zu gesundheitsförderlicher Bewegung und vermindert THG-Emissionen. Die Reduktion des klimarelevanten Flugverkehrs vermindert auch nachteilige Gesundheitsfolgen. Beim Wohnen ist der große Anteil der Ein- und Zweifamilienhäuser im Neubau wegen des hohen Flächen-, Material- und Energieaufwands zu hinterfragen, und attraktives Mehrfamilienwohnen kann durch gesundheitsfördernde und klimafreundliche Stadtplanung forciert werden; thermische Sanierung reduziert zudem den Hitzestress im Sommerhalbjahr. Der Gesundheitssektor selbst ist ebenfalls klimarelevant und begründet die Notwendigkeit einer eigenen Klimastrategie; pharmazeutische Produkte haben einen wesentlichen Anteil am Carbon- Footprint; die Vermeidung unnötiger Diagnostik und Therapien senkt THGEmissionen, PatientInnenrisiken und Gesundheitskosten. Eine Transformation im Schnittfeld von Klima und Gesundheit zu initiieren, erfordert eine übergreifende Zusammenarbeit von Klima- und Gesundheitspolitik und ist eine attraktive Chance zur gleichzeitigen Umsetzung der österreichischen Gesundheitsziele, des Pariser Klimaabkommens und der Nachhaltigkeitsziele der Vereinten Nationen. Die Wissenschaft kann mit Transformationsforschung und forschungsgeleiteter Lehre transformative Entwicklungspfade beschleunigen und neue interdisziplinäre Problemlösungen begünstigen
