• Accelerated increases in global and Asian summer monsoon precipitation from future aerosol reductions 

      Wilcox, Laura J.; Liu, Zhen; Samset, Bjørn Hallvard; Hawkins, Ed; Lund, Marianne Tronstad; Nordling, Kalle; Undorf, Sabine; Bollasina, Massimo; Ekman, Annica M.L.; Krishnan, Srinath; Merikanto, Joonas; Turner, Andrew G. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      There is a large range of future aerosol emissions scenarios explored in the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), with plausible pathways spanning a range of possibilities from large global reductions in emissions by 2050 ...
    • The Arctic has warmed nearly four times faster than the globe since 1979 

      Rantanen, Mika; Karpechko, Alexey Yu.; Lipponen, Antti; Nordling, Kalle; Hyvärinen, Otto; Ruosteenoja, Kimmo; Vihma, Timo Pekka; Laaksonen, Ari (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      In recent decades, the warming in the Arctic has been much faster than in the rest of the world, a phenomenon known as Arctic amplification. Numerous studies report that the Arctic is warming either twice, more than twice, ...
    • Climate Change, Summer Temperature, and Heat-Related Mortality in Finland: Multicohort Study with Projections for a Sustainable vs. Fossil-Fueled Future to 2050 

      Kivimäki, Mika; Batty, G David; Pentti, Jaana; Suomi, Juuso; Nyberg, Solja T.; Merikanto, Joonas; Nordling, Kalle; Ervasti, Jenni; Suominen, Sakari B.; Partanen, Antti-Ilari; Stenholm, Sari; Käyhkö, Jukka; Vahtera, Jussi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Climate change scenarios illustrate various pathways in terms of global warming ranging from “sustainable development” (Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP1-1.9), the best-case scenario, to ‘fossil-fueled development’ (SSP5-8.5), ...
    • Rapidly evolving aerosol emissions are a dangerous omission from near-term climate risk assessments 

      Persad, Geeta G.; Samset, Bjørn Hallvard; Wilcox, Laura J.; Allen, Robert J.; Bollasina, Massimo A.; Booth, Ben B. B.; Bonfils, Céline; Crocker, Tom; Joshi, Manoj M.; Lund, Marianne Tronstad; Marvel, Kate D.; Merikanto, Joonas; Nordling, Kalle; Undorf, Sabine; Vuuren, Detlef Van; Westervelt, Daniel M.; Zhao, Alcide (Journal article, 2023)
      Anthropogenic aerosol emissions are expected to change rapidly over the coming decades, driving strong, spatially complex trends in temperature, hydroclimate, and extreme events both near and far from emission sources. ...
