    • City-Size Distribution as a Function of Socioeconomic Conditions: An Eclectic Approach to Downscaling Global Population 

      Nam, K.-M.; Reilly, J.M. (MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2012-03)
      In this study, we introduce a new method of downscaling global population distribution, for which purpose conventional approaches have serious limitations in application. Our approach is “eclectic,” as it explores the ...

    • Effects of Nitrogen Limitation on Hydrological Processes in CLM4-CN 

      Lee, E.; Felzer, B.S. (MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2012-03)
      The role of nitrogen limitation on photosynthesis downregulation and stomatal conductance has a significant influence on evapotranspiration and runoff. In the current Community Land Model with coupled Carbon and Nitrogen ...

    • Emissions Pricing to Stablize Global Climate 

      Bosetti, V.; Paltsev, S.; Reilly, J.; Carraro, C. (MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2012-03)
