Abstract: The objective in this special issue is twofold. First, it emphasizes the importance of comprehending that, the global impacts of climate change notwithstanding, there are salient region-specific impacts that vary across space. Second, given this observation, it is shown how rigorous modelling of the connections between climate change and (1) land-use changes, (2) forestry, (3) infrastructure and (4) local labour markets sheds light on a variety of climate change-induced spatial economic effects. Following this introductory paper are seven additional papers in the issue. Each discusses a particular research question at the interface of what would be called ‘climate change and space’.
