    • A simple model for scenario studies of changes in global climate: Version 1.0 

      Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Berntsen, Terje Koren (CICERO Working Paper;1999:02, Working paper, 1999)
      This paper gives a documentation of a simple climate model for studying the effects of future climate gas emissions on global mean temperature and sea level. Input to the model is global emissions of 29 gases. Atmospheric ...

    • An alternative to the Global Warming Potential for comparing climate impacts of emissions of greenhouse gases 

      Shine, Keith P.; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Stuber, Nicola (CICERO Working Paper;2003:03, Working paper, 2003)
      The Global Warming Potential (GWP) is used within the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change as a metric for weighting the climatic impact of emissions of different greenhouse gases. ...

    • Assessing compliance with the Kyoto Protocol: Expert reviews, inverse modelling, or both? 

      Rypdal, Kristin; Stordal, Frode; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Berntsen, Terje Koren (CICERO Working Paper;2003:07, Working paper, 2003)
      The Kyoto Protocol has an ambitious reporting and review system to assess nations’ compliance with their emission commitments. This system requires considerable resources to assure that the Parties report accurate emission ...

    • Climate change: Some elements from the scientific background and the scientific process 

      Alfsen, Knut H.; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Skodvin, Tora (CICERO Working Paper;1998:11, Working paper, 1998)
      Concluding remarks: On the nature of the climate problem The problem of climate change is not, despite popular conception, mainly a problem of increased global average temperature. The seriousness of the problem is more ...

    • Costs Savings of a Flexible Multi-Gas Climate Policy 

      Aaheim, H. Asbjørn; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Godal, Odd (CICERO Working Paper;2004:03, Working paper, 2004)
      Current climate policies are based on the use of the Global Warming Potential (GWP) index to compare various greenhouse gases. Yet, from an economic point of view, more efficient methods exist. The purpose of this paper ...

    • Estimates of future climate based on SRES emission scenarios 

      Godal, Odd; Sygna, Linda; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Berntsen, Terje Koren (CICERO Working Paper;2000:04, Working paper, 2000)
      The preliminary emission scenarios in the Special Report on Emission Scenario (SRES) developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), will eventually replace the old IS92 scenarios. By running these ...

    • Impacts of reduced NOx emissions on radiative forcing through changes in tropospheric O3 and CH4: A global 3-D model study 

      Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Berntsen, Terje Koren; Isaksen, Ivar S. A.; Mao, Huiting; Liang, Xin-Zhong; Wang, Wei-Chyung (CICERO Working Paper;1997:01, Working paper, 1997)
      A three-dimensional global chemical tracer model and a radiation transfer model have been used to study the role of reduced NOx emissions on radiative forcing. Through production of tropospheric O3, NOx emissions lead to ...

    • Metodar for å samanlikne utslepp av klimagassar: GWP-konseptet og alternative metodar 

      Sygna, Linda; Fuglestvedt, Jan S.; Aaheim, H. Asbjørn (CICERO Working Paper;1999:11, Working paper, 1999)
      I denne publikasjonen har vi søkt å presentere ulike metodar for å samanlikne effekten av utslepp av klimagassar. Det globale oppvarmingspotensialet (GWP) er utvikla av FN sitt klimapanel (IPCC) til dette formålet. Dette ...
