Magnitude and distribution of secondary benefits from carbon dioxide emissions stabilization strategies
A critical characteristic of large-scale environmental issues related to anthropogenic activities is their interdisciplinary nature. This abstract describes an application of an integrated assessment model for simulating the consequences of climate change mitigation strategies on multiple environmental metrics. The objective of the integrated assessment model is to provided a coupled framework for linking the processes that give rise to anthropogenic emissions with the environmental processes that transform these emissions. It simulates the effects of global, regional, or United States environmental management strategies and economic trends on global climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, acid rain emissions, waste generation, air toxics emissions, and economic well-being.
