      Impact of Methane and Black Carbon Mitigation on Forcing and Temperature: A Multi-model Scenario Analysis

      Impact of Methane and Black Carbon Mitigation on Forcing and Temperature: A Multi-model Scenario Analysis

      Springer

      he relatively short atmospheric lifetimes of methane (CH4) and black carbon (BC) have focused attention on the potential for reducing anthropogenic climate change by reducing Short-Lived Climate Forcer (SLCF) emissions. This paper examines radiative forcing and global mean temperature results…

      Taking Some Heat Off the NDCs? The Limited Potential of Additional Short-lived Climate Forcers’ Mitigation

      Taking Some Heat Off the NDCs? The Limited Potential of Additional Short-lived Climate Forcers’ Mitigation

      Springer

      Several studies have shown that the greenhouse gas reduction resulting from the current nationally determined contributions (NDCs) will not be enough to meet the overall targets of the Paris Climate Agreement. It has been suggested that more ambition mitigations of…

      The Role of Methane in Future Climate Strategies: Mitigation Potentials and Climate Impacts

      The Role of Methane in Future Climate Strategies: Mitigation Potentials and Climate Impacts

      Springer

      This study examines model-specific assumptions and projections of methane (CH4) emissions in deep mitigation scenarios generated by integrated assessment models (IAMs). For this, scenarios of nine models are compared in terms of sectoral and regional CH4 emission reduction strategies, as…
