Abstract: Described are methods and systems, including computer program products, for securitizing catastrophic risk. A computing device receives financial instrument data including a premium amount and a coupon amount, where the financial instrument reflects a financial risk that corresponds to one or more physical risks. The computing device determines a first expected loss associated with the financial risk reflected in the financial instrument, and determines a second expected loss associated with the financial risk reflected in the financial instrument where the financial risk is adjusted to compensate for risk-reducing measures and/or risk-contributing measures. The computing device determines a differential between the first and second expected losses. The computing device calculates a credit to parties responsible for the risk-reducing measures and calculates a debit to parties responsible for the risk-contributing measures based upon the differential.

Abstract: A method and system that provides an “atlas” on global adaptation providing mapping, analysis, and reporting for scientists and decision-makers, of the best-available science on climate impacts and up-to-date information on adaptation projects. The atlas may be web-based. A method of displaying climate change data includes: collecting existing climate data; consolidating the collected data by designed attribute categories; filtering the collected data by attribute(s); presenting climate data to a user based on selected attribute categories; and archiving climate data.
