Evaluation of preindustrial to present-day black carbon and its albedo forcing from Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ACCMIP)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)As part of the Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ACCMIP), we evaluate the historical black carbon (BC) aerosols simulated by 8 ACCMIP models against observations including 12 ice core records, ... -
Evaluation of the CMIP6 multi-model ensemble for climate extreme indices
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This study evaluates global climate models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) for their performance in simulating the climate extreme indices defined by the Expert Team on Climate ... -
Evaluation of the Large EURO-CORDEX Regional Climate Model Ensemble
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The use of regional climate model (RCM)-based projections for providing regional climate information in a research and climate service contexts is currently expanding very fast. This has been possible thanks to a considerable ... -
Explaining growing climate policy differences between the European Union and the United States
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Strong rhetorical differences between the European Union and the United States on climate matters have been evident for almost two decades. Since the mid-2000s, such differences are becoming visible in their respective ... -
Explaining radical policy change: Norwegian climate policy and the ban on cultivating peatlands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)For decades Norwegian climate policy has largely ignored the agricultural sector and focused on cost-effective emission reductions abroad. Yet in June 2020, Norway decided to ban the cultivation of peatlands to protect ... -
Extreme weather impacts on maize yield: The case of Shanxi Province in China
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Extreme weather can have negative impacts on crop production. In this study, we statistically estimate the impacts of dry days, heat waves, and cold days on maize yield based on household survey data from 1993 to 2011 in ... -
Extreme weather, food security and the capacity to adapt – the case of crops in China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Three extreme weather scenarios are examined for agriculture in China in this study. One scenario assumes a year when every province has precipitation corresponding to the lowest level experienced in the province over the ... -
Fairness conceptions and self-determined mitigation ambition under the Paris Agreement: Is there a relationship?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper investigates the empirical relationship between countries’ expressed concerns with fairness and the ambition levels in their pledged contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement, asking the following questions: ... -
Fairness in the climate negotiations: what explains variation in parties’ expressed conceptions?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)How to differentiate efforts and obligations fairly between countries has been among the most central and controversial issues in climate negotiations. This article analyses countries’ fairness conceptions as expressed in ... -
Financial Measures to Reduce Carbon Emissions in Britain, Japan and the United States: A SWOT Analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)To mitigate global warming, China, the world’s largest greenhouse gas emitter, has set the goals of achieving carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, and financial measures could play an important role. To avoid ... -
The first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale resolution, part I: evaluation of precipitation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Here we present the first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale horizontal grid spacing over a decade long period. A total of 23 simulations run with a horizontal grid spacing of ∼3 km, ... -
Five criteria for global sustainable development
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)A clear understanding of the global-level sustainable development concept is necessary before applying it to projects at a national, local or firm level. Such lower-level projects may concern managing production and ... -

Forty-seven years of weekly atmospheric black carbon measurements in the Finnish Arctic: Decrease in black carbon with declining emissions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Concentrations of atmospheric black carbon, [BC], were determined from filter samples collected weekly at Kevo, Finland (69°45′N, 27°02′E), from 1964 to 2010 using optical and thermal optical methods. The data provide the ... -
Fossil CO2 emissions in the post-COVID-19 era
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Five years after the adoption of the Paris Climate Agreement, growth in global CO2 emissions has begun to falter. The pervasive disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic have radically altered the trajectory of global CO2 ... -
Frameworks for Comparing Emissions Associated with Production, Consumption, And International Trade
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)While the problem of climate change is being perceived as increasingly urgent, decision-makers struggle to agree on the distribution of responsibility across countries. In particular, representatives from countries hosting ... -
Frequency of extreme precipitation increases extensively with event rareness under global warming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The intensity of the heaviest extreme precipitation events is known to increase with global warming. How often such events occur in a warmer world is however less well established, and the combined effect of changes in ... -
