Studies of global environmental change make extensive use scenarios to explore how the future can evolve under a consistent set assumptions. The recently developed Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) create framework for study climate-related scenario outcomes. Their five narratives span wide range worlds that vary in their challenges climate mitigation and adaptation. Here we provide background on quantification has been selected serve as reference, or ‘marker’, implementation SSP2. SSP2...
Integrated assessment models are extensively used in the analysis of climate change mitigation and informing national decision makers as well contribute to international scientific assessments. This paper conducts a comprehensive review techno-economic assumptions electricity sector among fifteen different global integrated models. Particular focus is given six major economies world: Brazil, China, EU, India, Japan US. The comparison reveals that characteristics quite across models, both for...
Abstract Integrated assessment models (IAMs) form a prime tool in informing about climate mitigation strategies. Diagnostic indicators that allow comparison across these can help describe and explain differences model projections. This increases transparency comparability. Earlier, the IAM community has developed an approach to diagnose (Kriegler (2015 Technol. Forecast. Soc. Change 90 45–61)). Here we build on this, by proposing selected set of well-defined as standard, systematically...
Low-carbon pathways consistent with the 2 °C and 1.5 long-term climate goals defined in Paris Agreement are likely to induce substantial co-benefits for air pollution associated health impacts. In this analysis, using five global integrated assessment models, we quantify emission reductions key pollutants resulting from decarbonization of energy systems changes premature mortality attributed exposure ambient concentrations fine particulate matter.

Governments worldwide have agreed that international climate policy should aim to limit the increase of global mean temperature less than 2°C with respect pre-industrial levels. The purpose this paper is analyse emission reductions and related energy system changes in various countries pathways consistent target. We synthesize provide an overview national regional information contained different scenarios from models published over last few years, as well yet unpublished submitted by...
