Australia will unconditionally reduce our emissions by 5 % below 2000 levels by 2020, and by up to 15 % by 2020 if there is a global agreement which falls short of securing atmospheric stabilisation at 450 ppm CO2 - eq and under which major developing economies commit to substantially restrain emissions and advanced economies take on commitments comparable to Australia's.

The research concludes that if aviation growth continues, it could take up the entire emissions budget for all sectors of the EU economy by 2040 based on an atmospheric stabilisation target of greenhouse gas concentrations of 450 parts per million.

Not exact matches

Can a change (if observed) in these short - term and cyclic variations explain the existing stabilisation (or weak increasing) of CH4 atmospheric concentration?

RCP4.5 is a «stabilisation scenario» where policies are put in place so atmospheric CO2 concentration levels off around the middle of the century, though temperatures do not stabilise before 2100.

So - called stabilisation experiments have also been run with the atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations increasing by 1 % / yr or following an IPCC scenario, until CO2 - doubling, tripling or quadrupling.

Stabilisation of atmospheric greenhouse gases below about 400 ppm CO2 equivalent is required to keep the global temperature increase likely less than 2ºC above pre-industrial temperature (Knutti et al., 2005).2

For stabilisation in 2100 with SRES A1B atmospheric composition, Greenland would initially contribute 0.3 to 2.1 mm yr — 1 to sea level (Table 10.7).
