Research in South America uses case studies of natural disasters to posit linkages between climate change and migration. Climate variability and land suitability can also affect migration as environmental threats, but research tends to focus on natural disasters when people are regularly forced move. Where, when, and whether they move is affected by socioeconomic status and demographic characteristics.[50] Migrations happen gradually or suddenly but typically flow from rural to urban areas. Environmental changes heavily influence migration outside the home country, whereas inter-provincial migration less so.[51] Events such as drought and hurricanes have particular effects on youth migration. Youth are more likely to migrate as a response to climate related events. While most migration is rural-to-urban, research finds children frequently travels to find closer economic opportunities in rural destinations.[52]

Researchers suggest a review of the terms that define who is an environmental migrant since policy making bodies and intergovernmental agencies most affect responses when an environmental event causes people to migrate. Because of the increase in interest in this topic in the past decade some people call for a measure called preventive resettlement. The cases in which preventive resettlement appear appropriate is typically discerned by local and governmental bodies. Others call for an increase in social programs to both prevent and help in a migration event.[53]

Since most climate migration studies take place in the developed world, scientists call for more quantitative research within the developing world including South America.[51]   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nmhaenn (talk • contribs) 21:05, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
