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 ... -
Steady global surface warming from 1973 to 2022 but increased warming rate after 1990
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The change in global mean surface temperature is a crucial and broadly used indicator of the evolution of climate change. Any decadal scale changes in warming rate are however obfuscated by internal variability. Here we ... -
Strong impacts on aerosol indirect effects from historical oxidant changes

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 ... -
Surface warming and wetting due to methane’s long-wave radiative effects muted by short-wave absorption
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Although greenhouse gases absorb primarily long-wave radiation, they also absorb short-wave radiation. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of methane short-wave absorption, which enhances its stratospherically ... -
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

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 ... -
Sustainable sharing in local communities: exploring the role of social capital
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)There are many forms of sharing occurring in local communities that can help reduce overconsumption and mitigate the continuous growth of climate emissions. Lately, traditional forms of local sharing have been supplemented ... -
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 ... -
Ten-year return levels of sub-daily extreme precipitation over Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Information on the frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation is required by public authorities, civil security departments, and engineers for the design of buildings and the dimensioning of water management and ... -
The 'best available science' to inform 1.5°C policy choices
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)An IPCC Special Report on 1.5 °C should focus on resolving fundamental scientific and political uncertainties, not fixate on developing unachievable mitigation pathways. -
The acceptability of efficiency-enhancing environmental taxes, subsidies and regulation: An experimental investigation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Public opposition to efficiency-enhancing policies is a significant barrier to addressing many environmental challenges. We use a market experiment to explore the acceptability of three types of instruments: Pigouvian taxes ... -
The Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ACCMIP): overview and description of models, simulations and climate diagnostics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)The Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ACCMIP) consists of a series of time slice experiments targeting the long-term changes in atmospheric composition between 1850 and 2100, with the goal ...
