Local food systems and community development: a symbiotic relation? A case study of three rural municipalities in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Policy makers and researchers are increasingly emphasising the need for more diversified and localised food systems. This study investigates relations between local food systems and community development, revealing how ... -
Flight-intensive practices and wellbeing: current evidence and future research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This article draws on social practice theory and wellbeing perspectives to outline a research framework for the study of flight-intensive practices. The framework is then used to discuss, through a non-systematic review, ... -
Can policy packaging help overcome Pigouvian tax aversion? A labexperiment on combining taxes and subsidies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Tax aversion makes it politically challenging to introduce Pigouvian taxes. One proposed solution to overcome this resistance is to package policies. Using an online lab experiment, we investigate whether combining a tax ... -

Ambitious efforts on residual emissions can reduce CO<inf>2</inf> removal and lower peak temperatures in a net-zero future
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is expected to play a critical role in reaching net zero CO2 and especially net zero greenhouse gase (GHG) emissions. However, the extent to which the role of CDR in counterbalancing residual ... -
Recent reductions in aerosol emissions have increased Earth’s energy imbalance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The Earth’s energy imbalance is the net radiative flux at the top-of-atmosphere. Climate model simulations suggest that the observed positive imbalance trend in the previous two decades is inconsistent with internal ... -
Combining Fleetwide AviTeam Aviation Emission Modeling with LCA Perspectives for an Alternative Fuel Impact Assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Reducing aviation emissions is important as they contribute to air pollution and climate change. Several alternative aviation fuels that may reduce life cycle emissions have been proposed. Comparative life cycle assessments ... -
Global high-resolution growth projections dataset for rooftop area consistent with the shared socioeconomic pathways, 2020–2050
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Assessment of current and future growth in the global rooftop area is important for understanding and planning for a robust and sustainable decentralised energy system. These estimates are also important for urban planning ... -
Environmental sustainability of food production and consumption in the nordic and baltic region - a scoping review for nordic nutrition recommendations 2023
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This scoping review examines environmental impacts related to food production and consumption in Nordic and Baltic countries. The overarching advice to all Nordic and Baltic countries, in line with the current body of ... -
Indicators of Global Climate Change 2023: annual update of key indicators of the state of the climate system and human influence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessments are the trusted source of scientific evidence for climate negotiations taking place under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). ... -
Carbon and Greenhouse Gas Budgets of Europe: Trends, Interannual and Spatial Variability, and Their Drivers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In the framework of the RECCAP2 initiative, we present the greenhouse gas (GHG) and carbon (C) budget of Europe. For the decade of the 2010s, we present a bottom-up (BU) estimate of GHG net-emissions of 3.9 Pg CO2-eq. yr−1 ... -
Interactions between atmospheric composition and climate change - progress in understanding and future opportunities from AerChemMIP, PDRMIP, and RFMIP
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The climate science community aims to improve our understanding of climate change due to anthropogenic influences on atmospheric composition and the Earth's surface. Yet not all climate interactions are fully understood, ... -
A perspective on the next generation of Earth system model scenarios: Towards representative emission pathways (REPs)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In every Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Assessment cycle, a multitude of scenarios are assessed, with different scope and emphasis throughout the various Working Group reports and special reports, as well ... -
Nutrient Dynamics in a Coupled Terrestrial Biosphere and Land Model (ELM-FATES-CNP)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)We present a representation of nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in the Functionally Assembled Terrestrial Ecosystem Simulator, a demographic vegetation model within the Energy Exascale Earth System land model. This ... -
High-resolution projections of ambient heat for major European cities using different heat metrics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Heat stress in cities is projected to strongly increase due to climate change. The associated health risks will be exacerbated by the high population density in cities and the urban heat island effect. However, impacts are ... -
Coal transitions—part 2: phase-out dynamics in global long-term mitigation scenarios
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)A rapid phase-out of unabated coal use is essential to limit global warming to below 2 °C. This review presents a comprehensive assessment of coal transitions in mitigation scenarios consistent with the Paris Agreement, ... -
CICERO Simple Climate Model (CICERO-SCM v1.1.1) – an improved simple climate model with a parameter calibration tool
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The CICERO Simple Climate Model (CICERO-SCM) is a lightweight, semi-empirical model of global climate. Here we present a new open-source Python port of the model for use in climate assessment and research. The new version ... -
Protecting Child Health From Air Pollution in India
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Exposure to criteria pollutants such as fine particulate matter less than 2.5 µm in diameter (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and ozone (O3) results in various health issues, encompassing morbidity and mortality related ... -
Fires as a source of annual ambient PM<inf>2.5</inf> exposure and chronic health impacts in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Chronic exposure to ambient PM2.5 is the largest environmental health risk in Europe. We used a chemical transport model and recent exposure response functions to simulate ambient PM2.5, contribution from fires and related ... -
Strong increase in mortality attributable to ozone pollution under a climate change and demographic scenario
