Direkte og indirekte klimaeffekter av ozonnedbrytende stoffer
(1999:07, Working paper, 1999)Viktige ozonnedbrytende stoffer som KFK-11 og KFK-12 er sterke drivhusgasser med direkte oppvarmingseffekt. Men fordi disse gassene bryter ned ozonlaget, har de også flere indirekte effekter som sannsynligvis virker ... -
Dirty air offsets inequality
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Atmospheric aerosols have probably masked a significant portion of the greenhouse-gas-induced warming so far. Research now shows that this also may have masked some of the world’s increasing economic inequality. -
Disaggregating the Electricity Sector in the GRACE Model.

Distinct responses of Asian summer monsoon to black carbon aerosols and greenhouse gases
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Black carbon (BC) aerosols emitted from natural and anthropogenic sources induce positive radiative forcing and global warming, which in turn significantly affect the Asian summer monsoon (ASM). However, many aspects of ... -
Distinct surface response to black carbon aerosols
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)For the radiative impact of individual climate forcings, most previous studies focused on the global mean values at the top of the atmosphere (TOA), and less attention has been paid to surface processes, especially for ... -
Distribution of emission costs under different regulation schemes in Norway
(1998:08, Working paper, 1998)The main aim of this paper is to describe how today's carbon dioxide (CO2) tax scheme affects the various sectors of the Norwegian economy. Furthermore, we want to illuminate some possible distributive consequences that ... -
Distributive fairness: A mutual recognition approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Can norms of distributive fairness serve as pillars of a new and more effective global climate regime? Three general principles – responsibilities, capabilities (capacity), and needs (or rights) – are frequently invoked ... -
Does a change in the 'global net zero' language matter?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Changes in language used in long term climate policy can undermine their credibility and discourage climate action. Previous IPCC reports have promoted an idea of reaching ‘global net zero’ (GNZ) emissions by 2050 in order ... -
Does polycentrism deliver? A case study of energy community governance in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The European Union's Clean Energy Package (CEP) plans to transform ‘passive consumers’ into ‘active citizens’ to support the transition to a carbon-neutral energy system by 2050. By stimulating the growth of renewable ... -
Does solar geoengineering crowd-out climate change mitigation efforts? Evidence from a stated preference referendum on a carbon tax
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Solar geoengineering is increasingly being considered a realistic approach to managing climate change. One crucial concern is whether geoengineering crowds out efforts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Adding to a ... -
Dominant agents and intertemporal emissions trading
(2004:11, Working paper, 2004)In this paper we analyze how restricting intertemporal trading by prohibiting borrowing of emission permits affects the ability of a dominant agent to exploit its market power, and the consequences this has for the ... -
Downscaling probability of long heatwaves based on seasonal mean daily maximum temperatures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)A methodology for estimating and downscaling the probability associated with the duration of heatwaves is presented and applied as a case study for Indian wheat crops. These probability estimates make use of empirical-statistical ... -
Driving forces in energy-related carbon dioxide emissions in east and south coastal China: commonality and variations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)As the world's top carbon dioxide emitter, China is expected to reach its emissions peak by 2030. East and south coastal China contribute nearly one-third of the emissions in China, and therefore play a critical role in ... -
Dynamic ecosystem assembly and escaping the "fire trap" in the tropics: insights from FATES_15.0.0
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Fire is a fundamental part of the Earth system, with impacts on vegetation structure, biomass, and community composition, the latter mediated in part via key fire-tolerance traits, such as bark thickness. Due to anthropogenic ... -
Dynamical response of Mediterranean precipitation to greenhouse gases and aerosols

Earlier emergence of a temperature response to mitigation by filtering annual variability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The rate of global surface warming is crucial for tracking progress towards global climate targets, but is strongly influenced by interannual-to-decadal variability, which precludes rapid detection of the temperature ... -
Earth System Model Evaluation Tool (ESMValTool) v2.0-diagnostics for extreme events, regional and impact evaluation, and analysis of Earth system models in CMIP
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper complements a series of now four publications that document the release of the Earth System Model Evaluation Tool (ESMValTool) v2.0. It describes new diagnostics on the hydrological cycle, extreme events, impact ... -
Earth system resilience and tipping behavior
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Anthropogenic climate change, marked by unprecedented extremes, is an immediate concern. The Earth's limited ability to adapt to abrupt changes within our societal timeframe has raised global alarm. Resilience, the capacity ... -
Economic and Environmental Benefits from Municipal Solid Waste Recycling in the Murmansk Region
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Most municipal solid waste (MSW) in Russia is disposed of in landfills, and only a relatively small fraction is recycled. The landfilling of waste leads to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and air and groundwater pollution. ... -
Economic costs of heat-induced reductions in worker productivity due to global warming
(Journal article, 2020)We assess economic costs of heat-induced reductions in worker productivity at global scale under RCP2.6 and RCP8.5. Losses in worker productivity are calculated by using an empirically estimated epidemiological exposure-response ...
