Sharing a quota on cumulative carbon emissions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Any limit on future global warming is associated with a quota on cumulative global CO2 emissions. We translate this global carbon quota to regional and national scales, on a spectrum of sharing principles that extends from ... -
Sharing among neighbours in a Norwegian suburb
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Sharing goods and services has been promoted as fostering more sustainable consumption. In this paper, we explore sharing in a middle-class neighbourhood in a Norwegian city. We ask what influences and frames neighbours’ ... -
Side-payments: an effective instrument for building climate clubs?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Climate clubs have been suggested as a gateway to substantial reductions in global emissions. The club approach begins with a small number of enthusiastic countries. This paper asks under what conditions such clubs are ... -
Silos as barriers to public sector climate adaptation and preparedness: insights from road closures in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Organisational perspectives propose that structural arrangements affect policy outcomes. Drawing on these perspectives, it is worthwhile to find out whether and how disagreements among public authorities create barriers ... -
Similar patterns of tropical precipitation and circulation changes under solar and greenhouse gas forcing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Theory and model evidence indicate a higher global hydrological sensitivity for the same amount of surface warming to solar as to greenhouse gas (GHG) forcing, but regional patterns are highly uncertain due to their ... -
Smart hedging against carbon leakage
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Policy makers in the EU and elsewhere are concerned that unilateral pricing of the carbon externality induces carbon leakage through relocation of emission-intensive and trade-exposed production to other regions. A common ... -
Smoothing a reference pathway based on discrete exogenous projections
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In integrated assessment studies and scenario analysis, typically we need to calibrate a model to follow an exogenous pathway, e.g., the shared socioeconomic pathways. In these exogenous pathways, the data of key variables ... -
The Spectral Nature of Stratospheric Temperature Adjustment and its Application to Halocarbon Radiative Forcing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Stratospheric temperature adjustment (STA) is often a significant component of greenhouse gas radiative forcing (RF), for both the most widely used definition of RF and effective radiative forcing. It is well established ... -
Stable climate metrics for emissions of short and long-lived species—combining steps and pulses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Multi-gas climate agreements rely on a methodology (widely referred to as 'metrics') to place emissions of different gases on a CO2-equivalent scale. There has been an ongoing debate on the extent to which existing metrics ... -
Standard climate models radiation codes underestimate black carbon radiative forcing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Radiative forcing (RF) of black carbon (BC) in the atmosphere is estimated using radiative transfer codes of various complexities. Here we show that the two-stream radiative transfer codes used most in climate models give ... -
Strong impacts on aerosol indirect effects from historical oxidant changes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018) -
Støtte til elektrisitetsproduksjon fra fornybare kilder. Er risiko et onde?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Europakommisjonen ønsker mer bruk av markedsbaserte støtteordninger, slik som det norsk-svenske elsertifikatmarkedet. Likevel velger de fleste EU-land faste innmatingstariffer og tilsvarende støtteordninger som skjermer ... -
Sustainable development: Our Common Future revisited
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)No clear definition of sustainable development exists to guide politicians in solving challenges at the global or regional levels. Rather, the concept's use has increasingly reflected socially desirable attributes of ... -
Sustainable Mobility
(Chapter, 2015) -
Sustainable Passenger Transport: Back to Brundtland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)We argue that there is no clear definition of the concept sustainable passenger transport to help guide politicians in solving challenges at the global or regional level. Rather, the use of the concept has to an increasing ... -
Swedish-Norwegian tradable green certificates: Scheme design flaws and perceived investment barriers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)The EU Commission recommends using market-based support schemes for renewable-electricity projects. One example is the Swedish-Norwegian tradable green certificate scheme. We examine whether design features in the Norwegian ... -
Synoptic and meteorological drivers of extreme ozone concentrations over Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The present work assesses the relationship between local and synoptic meteorological conditions and surface ozone concentration over Europe in spring and summer months, during the period 1998–2012 using a new interpolated ... -
A systematic review on the association between total and cardiopulmonary mortality/morbidity or cardiovascular risk factors with long-term exposure to increased or decreased ambient temperature
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The health effects of acute exposure to temperature extremes are established; those of long-term exposure only recently received attention. We performed a systematic review to assess the associations of long-term (>3 months) ... -
Taxis and crowd-taxis: sharing as a private activity and public concern
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)he sharing economy has generated interest among economists for its customer focus and potential to enhance competition. However, it has also caused uproar in industries which have felt competitive pressure, for example ... -
Temporal–spatial evolution and influencing factors of coordinated development of the population, resources, economy and environment (Pree) system: Evidence from 31 provinces in China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Facing the increasingly severe friction among the domains of population, resources, economy and environment (PREE) in a system, theoretical guidance for the sustainable development of a PREE system can be obtained by ...
