Millennial total sea-level commitments projected with the Earth system model of intermediate complexity Loveclim
Sea-level is expected to rise for a long time to come, even after stabilization of human-induced climatic warming. Here we use simulations with the Earth system model of intermediate complexity LOVECLIM to project sea-level changes over the third millennium forced with atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations that stabilize by either 2000 or 2100 AD. The model includes 3D thermomechanical models of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets coupled …
The RCP greenhouse gas concentrations and their extensions from 1765 to 2300
We present the greenhouse gas concentrations for the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) and their extensions beyond 2100, the Extended Concentration Pathways (ECPs). These projections include all major anthropogenic greenhouse gases and are a result of a multi-year effort to produce new scenarios for climate change research. We combine a suite of atmospheric concentration observations and emissions estimates for greenhouse gases (GHGs) …
Emulating coupled atmosphere-ocean and carbon cycle models with a simpler model, Magicc6 – Part 1
Current scientific knowledge on the future response of the climate system to human-induced perturbations is comprehensively captured by various model intercomparison efforts. In the preparation of the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), intercomparisons were organized for atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) and carbon cycle models, named "CMIP3" and "C4MIP", respectively. Despit…
How difficult is it to recover from dangerous levels of global warming
Climate models provide compelling evidence that if greenhouse gas emissions continue at \npresent rates, then key global temperature thresholds (such as the European Union limit of two \ndegrees of warming since pre-industrial times) are very likely to be crossed in the next few \ndecades. However, there is relatively little attention paid to whether, should a dangerous \ntemperature level be exceeded, it is feasible for the global temperature to…
Regulating Legal Misconduct in the Commonwealth of Virginia
This research reviews malfeasance committed by legal actors in Virginia over a four-year time period, and examines the corresponding sanctions imposed on them. The inquiry entails the review of disciplinary cases reviewed by the Virginia State Bar. These cases cover a vast spectrum of misconduct ranging from those seemingly venial to those that are flagrantly criminal. The sanctions imposed are examined as well as the reasons for the sanctions. F…
