Sentences with phrase «alternative emissions pathways»

As for birds and amphibians, the paper's main coral results are based on changes projected by the mid-range A1B emission scenario from 1975 to 2050, and potential variation due to alternative emissions pathways (i.e., A2 and B1) and longer timeframes (i.e., 1975 — 2090) is explored in Figure 4, Figures S7, S8, S9 and Tables S19, S20, S21.

In the accompanying text, they document the assumptions (particularly about carbon capture, land - use emissions and sink enhancement) that lead to the alternative emissions and concentration pathways shown.

The rate and magnitude of future human - induced climate change and its associated impacts are determined by human choices defining alternative socio - economic futures and mitigation actions that influence emission pathways.

Most studies compare global emissions pathways resulting from the INDCs to one or more alternative scenarios without the INDCs.

Recent spatial analyses of reservoir CH4 dynamics highlight the disproportionate importance of inlets and other depositional zones toward overall flux (DelSontro et al. 2011, Maeck et al. 2013) as well as from seasonally flooded and downstream zones (see the Emissions From Alternative Flux Pathways section).

If we take into account five alternative emissions floors, namely (i) no floor, (ii) low hard floor, (iii) high hard floor, (iv) low decaying floor and (v) high decaying floor, which could apply to each of the 12750 possible pathways described above, we have 63750 possible emission pathways.

Although this synthesis focuses on GHG emissions from reservoir water surfaces, we also describe and discuss several important alternative pathways that can contribute significantly to reservoir GHG budgets (figure 1, supplemental table S1).

Alternative pathways of early deployment of negative emission technologies need to be considered to ensure that climate targets are reached safely and sustainably.

This is further complicated by some political rejection of science - based future climate projections and unwillingness to consider alternative economic development pathways to lowering the emission of carbon dioxide and other GHGs from the Human — Earth systems.

Alternative pathways involving lifestyle change, rapid electrification and reduction of non-CO2 gases could reduce the need for such negative emission technologies.
