  • Ssp3

    Open AccessShinichiro Fujimori, Tomoko Hasegawa et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Cited by: 43References: 6

    This study quantifies the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) using AIM/CGE (Asia-Pacific Integrated Assessment/Computable General Equilibrium). SSP3 (regional rivalry) forms the main focus of the study, which is supposed to face high challenges both in mitigation and adaptation. The AIM model has been selected as the model to quantify the SSP3 marker scenario, a representative case illustrating a particular narrative. Multiple parameter assumpt…

  • The Shared Socioeconomic Pathways and their energy, land use, and greenhouse gas emissions implications

    Open AccessKeywan Riahi, Detlef P Van Vuuren et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Cited by: 311References: 12

    This paper presents the overview of the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and their energy, land use, and emissions implications. The SSPs are part of a new scenario framework, established by the climate change research community in order to facilitate the integrated analysis of future climate impacts, vulnerabilities, adaptation, and mitigation. The pathways were developed over the last years as a joint community effort and describe plausible…

  • Locked into Copenhagen pledges — Implications of short-term emission targets for the cost and feasibility of long-term climate goals

    Open AccessKeywan Riahi, Elmar Kriegler et al.ARTICLETechnological Forecasting and…2013

    This paper provides an overview of the AMPERE modeling comparison project with focus on the implications of near-term policies for the costs and attainability of long-term climate objectives. Nine modeling teams participated in the project to explore the consequences of global emissions following the proposed policy stringency of the national pledges from the Copenhagen Accord and Cancún Agreements to 2030. Specific features compared to earlier a…

  • Low-carbon transitions in world regions

    Open AccessTatsuya Hanaoka, Mikiko KainumaARTICLESustainability Science2012Cited by: 2References: 4

    This study focuses on low-carbon transitions in the mid-term and analyzes mitigation potentials of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2020 and 2030 in a comparison based on bottom-up-type models. The study provides in-depth analyses of technological mitigation potentials and costs by sector and analyzes marginal abatement cost (MAC) curves from 0 to 200 US $/tCO2 eq in major countries. An advantage of this study is that the technological feasibili…

  • The representative concentration pathways

    Open AccessDetlef P Van Vuuren, Jae Edmonds et al.ARTICLEClimatic Change2011

    This paper summarizes the development process and main characteristics of the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), a set of four new pathways developed for the climate modeling community as a basis for long-term and near-term modeling experiments. The four RCPs together span the range of year 2100 radiative forcing values found in the open literature, i.e. from 2.6 to 8.5 W/m 2 . The RCPs are the product of an innovative collaboration be…

  • National implications of a 50% global reduction of greenhouse gases, and its feasibility in Japan

    Open AccessYuzuru Matsuoka, Junichi Fujino et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2008

    This paper considers three questions concerning a low-carbon society. The first is the implication of a 50% reduction in greenhouse gases (GHGs) by 2050. In the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report, released in 2007 (IPCC 2007b; http://www.gtp89.dial.pipex.com/chpt.htm ), the suggested limit of increase in average worldwide temperatures is 2–3°C above the current level, but is this consistent with a 50% reduct…
