The geopolitics of oil in a carbon-constrained world [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aviel Verbruggen and Thijs Van de Graaf posit that the dominant view of oil geopolitics as a struggle over scarce reserves is lopsided. Assuming that strict carbon limits will be imposed as a result of expected climate change, they believe oil markets ...

Loss of work productivity in a warming world: differences between developed and developing countries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Comparable estimates of the heat-related work productivity loss (WPL) in different countries over the world are difficult partly due to the lack of exact measures and comparable data for different counties.

Future changes in drought characteristics over southern South America projected by a CMIP5 multi-model ensemble [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The impact of climate change on drought main characteristics was assessed over Southern South America. This was done through the precipitation outputs from a multi-model ensemble of 15 climate models of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 ...

Building world narratives for climate change impact, adaptation and vulnerability analyses [PDF]

open access: yes
The impacts of climate change on human systems depend not only on the level of emissions but also on how inherently vulnerable these systems are to the changing climate.

Cost of preventing workplace heat-related illness through worker breaks and the benefit of climate-change mitigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The exposure of workers to hot environments is expected to increase as a result of climate change. In order to prevent heat-related illness, it is recommended that workers take breaks during working hours.

Global food efficiency of climate change mitigation in agriculture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Concerns exist regarding potential trade-offs between climate change mitigation in agriculture and food security. Against this background, the Global Biosphere Management Model (GLOBIOM) is applied to a range of scenarios of mitigation of emissions from ...

Emission pathways to achieve 2.0°C and 1.5°C climate targets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigated the feasibilities of 2.0°C and 1.5°C climate targets by considering the abatement potentials of a full suite of greenhouse gases, pollutants, and aerosols. We revised the inter-temporal dynamic optimization model DICE-2013R by introducing

What climate sensitivity index is most useful for projections? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Transient climate response (TCR), transient response at 140 years (T140) and equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) indices are intended as benchmarks for comparing the magnitude of climate response projected by climate models.
