Modeling the Global Water Resource System in an Integrated Assessment Modeling Framework: IGSM-WRS
(MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2010-09)The availability of water resources affects energy, agricultural and environmental systems, which are linked together as well as to climate via the water cycle. As such, watersheds and river basins are directly impacted ... -
On the Correlation between Forcing and Climate Sensitivity
(MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2010-08)The possible correlation between climate sensitivity and radiative forcing is studied using versions of the NCAR Community Atmospheric Model (CAM) model with different climate sensitivities. No such correlation was found ... -
Combining a Renewable Portfolio Standard with a Cap-and-Trade Policy: A General Equilibrium Analysis
(MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2010-07)Many efforts to address greenhouse gas emissions combine a cap-and-trade system with other measures such as a renewable portfolio standard. In this paper we use a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model, the MIT Emissions ...
