Asking the right questions in adaptation research and practice: Seeing beyond climate impacts in rural Nepal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Adaptation research and practice too often overlooks the wider social context within which climate change is experienced. Mainstream approaches frame adaptation problems in terms of the consequences that flow from biophysical ... -
Caribbean Small-Scale Fishers’ Strategies for Extreme Weather Events: Lessons for Adaptive Capacity from the Dominican Republic and Belize
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Understanding how Caribbean small-scale fishers can adapt to climate change is critical to sustaining coastal communities and livelihoods in the region. Fishers continuously adapt their practices to climate variability and ... -
Choice of metrics matters—Future scenarios on milk and beef production in Norway using an LCA approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The consumption of dairy and beef products is expected to increase globally in the future, and at the same time, food must be produced in a more sustainable way, including reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, avoided ... -
Climate change effects on hydrometeorological compound events over southern Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Hydrometeorological compound events cause severe economical, societal and environmental damage, but their investigation is difficult as they occur rarely and are multivariate. Here we use 50 high-resolution climate simulations ... -
Climate impact storylines for assessing socio-economic responses to remote events
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Modelling complex interactions involving climatic features, socio-economic vulnerability or responses, and long impact transmissions is associated with substantial uncertainty. Physical climate storylines are proposed as ... -
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 ... -
Emerging reporting and verification needs under the Paris Agreement: How can the research community effectively contribute?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission inventories represent the link between national and international political actions on climate change, and climate and environmental sciences. Inventory agencies need to include, in national ... -
Intermediating climate change: conclusions and new research directions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The urgency and threats of climate change have elevated the issue to a prominent – albeit often contested – position within the policy process. Resultantly, climate politics and climate change governance have received ... -
Intermediating climate change: the evolving strategies, interactions and impacts of neglected “climate intermediaries”
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Climate change governance systems comprise a wide variety of actors. Here, we introduce “climate intermediaries” as one potentially influential yet often neglected type of actor, behaving as “go-betweens” that connect ... -
Lessons from COVID-19 for managing transboundary climate risks and building resilience
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)COVID-19 has revealed how challenging it is to manage global, systemic and compounding crises. Like COVID-19, climate change impacts, and maladaptive responses to them, have potential to disrupt societies at multiple scales ... -
Public support for air travel restrictions to address COVID-19 or climate change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)An improved understanding of public support is essential to design effective and feasible climate policies for aviation. Our motivation is the contrast between high support for air travel restrictions responding to the ... -
Response to marine cloud brightening in a multi-model ensemble
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018) -
The role of spatial and temporal model resolution in a flood event storyline approach in western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We apply a physical climate storyline approach to an autumn flood event in the West Coast of Norway caused by an atmospheric river to demonstrate the value and challenges of higher spatial and temporal resolution in ... -
The Time Scales of Climate Responses to Carbon Dioxide and Aerosols
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The climate system responds to changes in the amount of atmospheric greenhouse gases or aerosols through rapid processes, triggered within hours and days, and through slower processes, where the full response may only be ... -
What is a heat(wave)? An interdisciplinary perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Excessive summer heat is becoming people’s daily reality creating an urgency to understand heatwaves and their consequences better. This article suggests an interdisciplinary analytical framework of heat(waves) as multiple ...
