Title: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Working Group 1, 1994: Modelling Results Relating Future Atmospheric CO2 Concentrations to Industrial Emissions (DB1009)

Abstract

This database contains the results of various projections of the relation between future CO2 concentrations and future industrial emissions. These projections were contributed by groups from a number of countries as part of the scientific assessment for the report, "Radiative Forcing of Climate Change" (1994), issued by Working Group 1 of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. There were three types of calculations: (1) forward projections, calculating the atmospheric CO2 concentrations resulting from specified emissions scenarios; (2) inverse calculations, determining the emission rates that would be required to achieve stabilization of CO2 concentrations via specified pathways; (3) impulse response function calculations, required for determining Global Warming Potentials. The projections were extrapolations of global carbon cycle models from pre-industrial times (starting at 1765) to 2100 or 2200 A.D. There were two aspects to the exercise: (1) an assessment of the uncertainty due to uncertainties regarding the current carbon budget, and (2) an assessment of the uncertainties arising from differences between models. To separate these effects, a set of standard conditions was used to explore inter-model differences and then a series of sensitivity studies was used to explore the consequences of current uncertainties in the carbon cycle.For access to the data files,more »« less

Chapter 10, Industry, in: Climate Change 2014: Mitigation of Climate Change. Contribution of Working Group III to the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

Book Fischedick, Manfred ; Roy, Joyashree ; Abdel-Aziz, Amr ; ...

This chapter provides an update to developments on mitigation in the industry sector since the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) (IPCC, 2007), but has much wider coverage. Industrial activities create all the physical products (e.g., cars, agricultural equipment, fertilizers, textiles, etc.) whose use delivers the final services that satisfy current human needs. Compared to the industry chapter in AR4, this chapter analyzes industrial activities over the whole supply chain, from extraction of primary materials (e.g.,ores) or recycling (of waste materials), through product manufacturing, to the demand for the products and their services.

Report of the Expert Group on Emissions Scenarios of the Response Strategies Working Group of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Appendix. Technical report (Draft)

Technical Report

The appendix contains back-up data to the five scenarios of potential climate change in greenhouse gas emissions over the next century and changes to stabilize emissions, as presented in Emissions Scenarios: Report to the Expert Group on Emissions Scenarios from the Response Strategies Working Group of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, April 1990.
Report of the Expert Group on Emissions Scenarios of the Response Strategies Working Group of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Technical draft report

Technical Report

A report is presented of the Expert Group on Emissions Scenarios, which includes the United States and the Netherlands, from the Response Strategies Working Group of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, April 1990. Five scenarios are presented in which greenhouse gas emissions could change over the next century: High Emissions; Low Emissions; Control Policies; and Accelerated Policies (two scenarios). The scenarios also illustrate changes that might stabilize emissions and allow growth and improvement in the standard of living. Goals of 20% reduction in CO{sub 2} emissions are considered by the early part of the next century (Toronto Conference: Themore » Changing Atmosphere - 1988).« less
