None of the six empirical studies compared migrant and local populations, and only one incorporated an intra-group comparison. The populations examined were primarily adults and included climate migrants, economic migrants, and forcibly displaced or forced migrants. The events reported encompassed hurricanes, storms, droughts, floods, and shifts in precipitation patterns, although four of the eight publications addressed climate change in general terms. Health effects were sparsely characterized: four of the eight publications reported acute conditions, whereas chronic conditions were not identified and specific infectious diseases were not reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The available evidence remains limited, heterogeneous, and poorly disaggregated.
