This file contains the final search strategies for this review. A draft search strategy was compiled in the Web of Science Core Content databases by an experienced information professional. The search strategy included strings of terms, synonyms and subject headings to reflect the following concepts: climate change; economic assessment; health. No limits were added to the search. The search strategy was refined with the project team until the retrieved results reflected the scope of the project, and retrieved previously identified papers which met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Initial search drafts contained extensive terms for each concept, however these produced an overly sensitive search. Close examination of the vocabulary of previously identified relevant papers allowed the search terms to be made more specific while remaining sufficiently sensitive. Once agreed, the draft search was adapted for each database to incorporate database-specific syntax and controlled vocabularies. Search strategies were run on the following databases on 27 January 2025: EBSCOhost Africa-Wide Information; Ovid Econlit; Ovid Embase Classic+Embase; Ovid Global Health; World Health Organization Global Index Medicus; EBSCOhost GreenFile; Ovid Medline ALL; Clarivate Analytics SciELO Citation Index; Elsevier Scopus; Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Core Content. These databases were chosen to retrieve relevant information from the health, environment and economics literature.
