Climate Change and National Security:A Review of Current Research in the United States

The recent years saw rapid progress in the research of the impact of climate change on national security in the United States. The article aims to provide a general assessment of the current status and the major characteristics of U.S. research of the impact of climate change on national security and to analyze what experience we can learn from the United States. The author argues that so far in what ways and to what extent climate change would influence U.S. national security has been fully discussed in the United States; and there have also been rich studies of the countermeasures against the threat of climate change to U.S. national security. The major features of current U.S. research are: first, there are some innovations in terms of theories and research methods. Second, the research boasts global vision and strong relevance to U.S. national security. Third, the academic level is improved steadily. Forth, the network of government, academia and think tanks has taken shape in U.S. current research. Currently, the similar research in China is still in its infancy. To promote China's research of the impact of climate change on national security, we should draw some useful experience from the U.S. practices.
