Arctic tropospheric ozone: assessment of current knowledge and model performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)As the third most important greenhouse gas (GHG) after carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), tropospheric ozone (O3) is also an air pollutant causing damage to human health and ecosystems. This study brings together ... -
Are Northern Hemisphere boreal forest fires more sensitive to future aerosol mitigation than to greenhouse gas–driven warming?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Considerable interest exists in understanding how climate change affects wildfire activity. Here, we use the Community Earth System Model version 2 to show that future anthropogenic aerosol mitigation yields larger increases ... -
Asian Anthropogenic Aerosol Forcing Played a Key Role in the Multidecadal Increase in Australian Summer Monsoon Rainfall
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Observations show a significant increase in Australian summer monsoon (AUSM) rainfall since the mid-twentieth century. Yet the drivers of this trend, including the role of anthropogenic aerosols, remain uncertain. We ... -
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 ... -
Assessing heat effects on respiratory mortality and location characteristics as modifiers of heat effects at a small area scale in Central-Northern Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Heat effects on respiratory mortality are known, mostly from time-series studies of city-wide data. A limited number of studies have been conducted at the national level or covering non-urban areas. Effect modification by ... -
Assessing the robustness and implications of econometric estimates of climate sensitivity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)Earth's transient climate response (TCR) quantifies the global mean surface air temperature change due to a doubling of atmospheric CO2 concentration after 70 years of a compounding 1% per year increase. TCR is highly ... -
Assessment of short-term heat effects on cardiovascular mortality and vulnerability factors using small area data in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Short-term associations between heat and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality have been examined mostly in large cities. However, different vulnerability and exposure levels may contribute to spatial heterogeneity. This ... -
Assessment of the European Climate Projections as Simulated by the Large EURO-CORDEX Regional and Global Climate Model Ensemble
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper analyzes the ensemble of regional climate model (RCM) projections for Europe completed within the EURO-CORDEX project. Projections are available for the two greenhouse gas concentration scenarios RCP2.6 (22 ... -
Assessment of the optimal rebound effects from energy intensity reduction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Energy efficiency improvement is widely recognized as a cost-effective measure for clean production. In literature, the rebound effects of energy efficiency improvement represented by energy intensity reductions, potential ... -

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Energy efficiency improvement is widely recognized as a cost-effective measure for clean production. In literature, the rebound effects of energy efficiency improvement represented by energy intensity reductions, potential ... -
Atmospheric concentrations of black carbon are substantially higher in spring than summer in the Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A key driving factor behind rapid Arctic climate change is black carbon, the atmospheric aerosol that most efficiently absorbs sunlight. Our knowledge about black carbon in the Arctic is scarce, mainly limited to long-term ... -
Atmospheric health burden across the century and the accelerating impact of temperature compared to pollution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Anthropogenic emissions alter atmospheric composition and therefore the climate, with implications for air pollution- and climate-related human health. Mortality attributable to air pollution and non-optimal temperature ... -
Atmospheric methane evolution the last 40 years
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Observations at surface sites show an increase in global mean surface methane (CH4) of about 180 parts per billion (ppb) (above 10 %) over the period 1984–2012. Over this period there are large fluctuations in the annual ... -
Balancing cost and justice concerns in the energy transition: comparing coal phase-out policies in Germany and the UK
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Europe’s two largest economies – Germany and the UK – are phasing out coal from electricity production as part of European efforts to fulfil increased climate policy ambitions that require comprehensive energy system ... -
A better integration of health and economic impact assessments of climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Climate change could lead to high economic burden for individuals (i.e. low income and high prices). While economic conditions are important determinants of climate change vulnerability, environmental epidemiological studies ... -
Betting on negative emissions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage could be used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, its credibility as a climate change mitigation option is unproven and its widespread deployment in climate ... -
Biofuel burning and human respiration bias on satellite estimates of fossil fuel CO2 emissions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The satellites that have been designed to support the monitoring of fossil fuel CO2 emissions aim to systematically measure atmospheric CO2 plumes generated by intense emissions from large cities, power plants and industrial ... -
Biomass burning emission analysis based on MODIS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)We assessed the biomass burning (BB) smoke aerosol optical depth (AOD) simulations of 11 global models that participated in the AeroCom phase III BB emission experiment. By comparing multi-model simulations and satellite ... -
Black carbon aerosol reductions during COVID-19 confinement quantified by aircraft measurements over Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The abrupt reduction in human activities during the first lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic created unprecedented atmospheric conditions. To quantify the changes in lower tropospheric air pollution, we conducted the BLUESKY ... -
Black Carbon and Precipitation: An Energetics Perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Black carbon (BC) aerosols influence precipitation through a range of processes. The climate response to the presence of BC is however highly dependent on its vertical distribution. Here, we analyze the changes in the ...
