Exposure-response functions for health effects of air pollutants based on epidemiological findings
(CICERO Report;1995:08, Research report, 1995)Quantitative knowledge about health damage due to air pollution is an important element in analyses of cost-effective abatement strategies, and it is also essential for setting Air Quality Standards. In this context ... -
Climate agreements under limited participation, asymmetric information and market imperfections: A summary of a Dr.polit. Thesis
(CICERO Report;1996:06, Research report, 1996)Marginal abatement costs differ among countries. A climate treaty that specifies fixed emissions reductions for the different countries that participate will therefore, in general, not achieve a cost-effective distribution ... -
Exploring distribution of commitments: A follow-up to the Berlin Mandate
(CICERO Report;1996:03, Research report, 1996)The study reviews and analyzes some major issues that must be considered when defining principles for distributing commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for countries belonging to the Organization for Economic ... -
Verdien av klimatiltak
(CICERO Report;1996:01, Research report, 1996)The study surveys the literature on the economic costs of climate policy in different countries and world wide. Studies of costs to achieve national targets on emissions are partly based on bottom-up approaches, where ... -
Climate change in Africa: Issues and challenges in agriculture and water for sustainable development
(CICERO Report;1996:08, Research report, 1996)This report is primarily focused on the issue of how the World Bank can modify its projects, especially in the agriculture and water resources sectors, to prepare for future adverse effects of changes in climate. The report ... -
Deling av arbeid, arbeidsløshet og miljøproblemer - en drøfting av noen kortsiktige og langsiktige sammenhenger
(CICERO Report;1996:07, Research report, 1996)The aim of the project is to discuss the links between technological development, unemployment, work sharing and some environmental issues. The discussion explores whether reduced working hours in general are likely to ... -
A comprehensive approach to climate change: Options and obstacles
(CICERO Report;1996:04, Research report, 1996)The principle of comprehensiveness constitutes an important element in the climate convention, but guidelines as to how this principle is to be understood and implemented are not provided. In this analysis the meaning of ... -
Feasibility study on: Reforestation of degraded grasslands in Indonesia as a climate change mitigation option
(CICERO Report;1996:05, Research report, 1996)Deforestation and changes in land use in the tropics contribute a significant share of the anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, of which the most important is carbon dioxide (CO2). Increasing the uptake and storage ... -
Towards a sustainable energy system - A long term transition strategy
(CICERO Report;1997:06, Research report, 1997)The scope and the format of this report was developed in cooperation between CICERO and the Ministry of Oil and Energy and the financial support from the ministry funded the project. The analysis presented in this report ... -
Health and environmental benefits from the implementation of an energy saving program in Hungary
(CICERO Report;1997:01, Research report, 1997)The aim of this study is to assess the cost and benefit of implementing a specific energy saving program in Hungary. We have considered the possible reduced damage to public health, materials and agricultural crops that ... -
Climatic effects of NOx emissions through changes in tropospheric O3 and CH4: A global 3D model study
(CICERO Report;1997:03, Research report, 1997)As a result of chemical processes in the atmosphere, emissions of NOx can both damp and enhance the greenhouse effect. The two most important effects of NOx in this context are increased concentrations of tropospheric ozone ... -
Many gases and many measures: Choice of targets and selection of measures in climate policy
(CICERO Report;1997:04, Research report, 1997)This report discusses the economic impacts of taking a comprehensive approach to climate policy. A comprehensive climate policy implies that all relevant sources, sinks and reservoirs of climate gases are covered. From the ... -
Effects of anthropogenic emissions on tropospheric ozone and its radiative forcing
(CICERO Report;1997:02, Research report, 1997)Tropospheric ozone changes since pre-industrial times due to changes in emissions have been calculated by the University of Oslo global 3-D photochemical model. The radiative forcing caused by the increase in ozone has ... -
