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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
The effect of rapid adjustments to halocarbons and N2O on radiative forcing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Rapid adjustments occur after initial perturbation of an external climate driver (e.g., CO2) and involve changes in, e.g. atmospheric temperature, water vapour and clouds, independent of sea surface temperature changes. ... -
Effectiveness of integrated low-carbon technologies: Evidence from a pilot agricultural experiment in Shanghai
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Purpose – Constructing a low-carbon agriculture park is considered an effective means to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in developing countries. This study explores the effectiveness of integrated low-carbon agricultural ... -
Electricity consumption: should there be a limit? Implications of people’s attitudes for the forming of sustainable energy policies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)The aim of this paper is to examine people’s attitudes towards electricity and electricity consumption within the Norwegian market context. The empirical material is based on 18 in-depth interviews and eight focus group ... -
Elemental carbon measurements in European Arctic snow packs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)[1] Black carbon (BC) and other light-absorbing particles deposited on snow and ice are known to perturb the surface radiative balance. There are few published observations of the concentration of these particles in the ... -
Elevation dependent precipitation and temperature changes over Indian Himalayan region
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Various studies reported an elevation dependent precipitation and temperature changes in mountainous regions of the world including the Himalayas. Various mechanisms are proposed to link the possible dependence of the ... -
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 ... -
Emission metrics for quantifying regional climate impacts of aviation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017) -
The Emissions Model Intercomparison Project (Emissions-MIP): Quantifying model sensitivity to emission characteristics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anthropogenic emissions of aerosols and precursor compounds are known to significantly affect the energy balance of the Earth–atmosphere system, alter the formation of clouds and precipitation, and have a substantial impact ... -
Empirical estimates of regional carbon budgets imply reduced global soil heterotrophic respiration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Resolving regional carbon budgets is critical for informing land-based mitigation policy. For nine regions covering nearly the whole globe, we collected inventory estimates of carbon-stock changes complemented by satellite ... -
An Endogenous Emission Cap Produces a Green Paradox
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The European Union’s Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is complemented by a Market Stability Reserve (MSR). After a major revision of the EU ETS in 2018, the MSR effectively makes the supply of allowances responsive to ...
