New modeling strategy could improve understanding of complex multi-sector interactions with the Earth system and provide a powerful risk assessment tool
Based on global climate models and multiple hypotheses, scientists expected a 50-year drying trend to continue unabated into the 21st century, but a new study in Nature Climate Change shows that the trend has reversed.
Water available for irrigation will be affected by climate and increasing demand from other sectors, with consequences for energy-water-land interactions.
The European Union could meet its climate goals and save billions of Euro by extending its emissions trading system to include the private transportation sector.
Emulators provide a reliable, more computationally efficient alternative to globally gridded crop models, and can advance integrated assessment research addressing land-use change.
This document reports on activities for the project on the Assessment of CCS Technology in a Climate Change Portfolio.
Successful global efforts to substantially limit greenhouse gas emissions would likely boost GDP growth of poorer countries over the next 30 years, according to new research published in Climatic Change.
