Using a dynamic general equilibrium model, we analyze economic transition dynamics from 2015 to 2100, incorporating heat-induced labor productivity losses, agricultural land loss, and cyclone-related property damage. We compare a Paris-compatible scenario limiting warming to below 2 °C with a high-emission scenario reaching 4–5 °C. While output and investment impacts remain highly uncertain and statistically indistinguishable across scenarios until 2100, consumption losses are significantly larger under high emissions, mainly driven by heat-related productivity declines, with cyclones contributing most to uncertainty. These findings underscore the importance of considering multiple impact channels beyond output damages in climate-development research.1 Online-Ressource (III, 53 Seiten, 2,92 MB) : Diagrammeenghttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/330Climate change economics in Vietnam : redefining economic impact / Christian Otto, Christoph Schult, Thomas Vogt ; editor: Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH) - Member of the Leibniz Association
