Research priorities for negative emissions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere (CDR)—also known as 'negative emissions'—features prominently in most 2 °C scenarios and has been under increased scrutiny by scientists, citizens, and policymakers. Critics argue ... -
Response to marine cloud brightening in a multi-model ensemble
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018) -
Response to marine cloud brightening in a multi-model ensemble
(Journal article, 2017)Here we show results from Earth System Model simulations from the marine cloud brightening experiment G4cdnc of the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP). The nine contributing models prescribe a 50 % ... -
Responses of Arctic black carbon and surface temperature to multi-region emission reductions: A Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution Phase 2 (HTAP2) ensemble modeling study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Black carbon (BC) emissions play an important role in regional climate change in the Arctic. It is necessary to pay attention to the impact of long-range transport from regions outside the Arctic as BC emissions from local ... -
A review of coarse mineral dust in the Earth system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Mineral dust particles suspended in the atmosphere span more than three orders of magnitude in diameter, from <0.1 μm to more than 100 μm. This wide size range makes dust a unique aerosol species with the ability to interact ... -
A review of trends and drivers of greenhouse gas emissions by sector from 1990 to 2018
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be traced to five economic sectors: energy, industry, buildings, transport and AFOLU (agriculture, forestry and other land uses). In this topical review, we synthesise the literature ... -
Right-wing populism and climate policies: Explaining opposition to road tolls in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In 2019, the road toll uproar in Norway contributed to a governmental crisis and road tolls became the most debated issue in the media. Using survey data of around 2,000 respondents, we explore what characterizes opponents ... -
“Robots taking over the world… fantastic!” Understanding social representations, familiarity and visions of experiments with autonomous public transportation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Autonomous public transport (APT) represents a potentially important innovation in the transition to a low-carbon transport system. Niche operators around the world are currently starting to experiment with forms of APT ... -
The role of community sharing in sustainability transformation: case studies from Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Based on three case studies of community sharing in different sectors of society, we address how and under what conditions community sharing can contribute to sustainability transformation. Considering modes of exchange ... -
The role of spatial and temporal model resolution in a flood event storyline approach in western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We apply a physical climate storyline approach to an autumn flood event in the West Coast of Norway caused by an atmospheric river to demonstrate the value and challenges of higher spatial and temporal resolution in ... -
Ruminating on sustainable food systems in a net-zero world
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)For as long as sustainable food systems have been on the global agenda, the meaning of ‘sustainable’ has been hotly debated. Discussing the use and abuse of the term sustainability in the food-system context, we select a ... -
Satellite-based analysis of top of atmosphere shortwave radiative forcing trend induced by biomass burning aerosols over South-Eastern Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This study investigates long-term changes in the shortwave direct aerosol radiative effect (DARE) at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) induced by biomass burning aerosol (BBA) transported from southern Africa to the south-eastern ... -
Satellite-based evaluation of AeroCom model bias in biomass burning regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Global models are widely used to simulate biomass burning aerosol (BBA). Exhaustive evaluations on model representation of aerosol distributions and properties are fundamental to assess health and climate impacts of BBA. ... -
Science as a "fixed point" Quantification and boundary objects in international climate politics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Our understanding of climate change is dominated by quantified scientific knowledge, with science and politics usually seen as operating separately and autonomously from one another. By investigating a particular fact box ... -
Scientific data from precipitation driver response model intercomparison project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This data descriptor reports the main scientific values from General Circulation Models (GCMs) in the Precipitation Driver and Response Model Intercomparison Project (PDRMIP). The purpose of the GCM simulations has been ... -
Scoping Review of Climate Change Adaptation Interventions for Health: Implications for Policy and Practice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Climate change is among the greatest threats to health in the 21st century, requiring the urgent scaling-up of adaptation interventions. We aim to summarise adaptation interventions that were funded by the Belmont Forum ... -
Seizing policy windows: Policy Influence of climate advocacy coalitions in Brazil, China, and India, 2000?2015
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)What drives the development of climate policy? Brazil, China, and India have all changed their climate policies since 2000, and single-case analyses of climate policymaking have found that all three countries have had ... -
Sensitivity of black carbon concentrations and climate impact to aging and scavenging in OsloCTM2-M7
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Accurate representation of black carbon (BC) concentrations in climate models is a key prerequisite for understanding its net climate impact. BC aging and scavenging are treated very differently in current models. Here, ... -
Separating the shortwave and longwave components of greenhouse gas radiative forcing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Many important greenhouse gases (including water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane and ozone) absorb solar radiation. When gas concentrations change, this absorption exerts a radiative forcing that modifies the thermal ... -
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 ...
