FrEDI Publications and Applications
The Framework for Evaluating Impacts and Damages (FrEDI) has been used to explore climate-related impacts to the United States under a variety of future scenarios. This page provides links to select example applications of FrEDI, including recent peer-reviewed literature studies, as well as links to several recent documents that have included analyses or U.S. impact results informed by FrEDI output. See the 'About FrEDI' webpage for more information on the Technical Documentation and FrEDI methodology.
