Journal ArticleDOI
The representative concentration pathways: an overview
Detlef P. van Vuuren,Detlef P. van Vuuren,Jae Edmonds,Mikiko Kainuma,Keywan Riahi,Allison M. Thomson,Kathy Hibbard,George C. Hurtt,George C. Hurtt,Tom Kram,Volker Krey,Jean-Francois Lamarque,Toshihiko Masui,Malte Meinshausen,Nebojsa Nakicenovic,Nebojsa Nakicenovic,Steven J. Smith,Steven K. Rose +17 more
TL;DR: The Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) as discussed by the authors is a set of four new pathways developed for the climate modeling community as a basis for long-term and near-term modeling experiments.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the overview of the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and their energy, land use, and emissions implications, and find that associated costs strongly depend on three factors: (1) the policy assumptions, (2) the socioeconomic narrative, and (3) the stringency of the target.
Journal ArticleDOI
RCP 8.5—A scenario of comparatively high greenhouse gas emissions
Keywan Riahi,Shilpa Rao,Volker Krey,Cheolhung Cho,V. Chirkov,Guenther Fischer,Georg Kindermann,Nebojsa Nakicenovic,Peter Rafaj +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the main characteristics of the RCP8.5 scenario and explored scenario variants that use RCP 8.5 as a baseline, and assume different degrees of greenhouse gas mitigation policies to reduce radiative forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify potential global impacts of different negative emissions technologies on various factors (such as land, greenhouse gas emissions, water, albedo, nutrients and energy) to determine the biophysical limits to, and economic costs of, their widespread application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy system transformations for limiting end-of-century warming to below 1.5 °C
Joeri Rogelj,Joeri Rogelj,Gunnar Luderer,Robert C. Pietzcker,Elmar Kriegler,Michiel Schaeffer,Volker Krey,Keywan Riahi,Keywan Riahi +8 more
TL;DR: A new analysis shows that global warming could be limited to 1.5 °C by 2100, but that the window for achieving this is small and rapidly closing as mentioned in this paper, but this analysis does not consider the effects of human activities.
