Long-term, consistent scenarios of emissions, deposition, and climate change in Europe
The aim of this study was to develop consistent scenarios of emissions, climate change and regional air pollution to enable an integrated analysis of the linkage between climate change and regional…
Applications of EDGAR Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research
EDGAR 2.0 (Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research) provided global annual emissions for 1990 of greenhouse gases CO 2 , CH 4 and N 2 O and precursor gases CO, NO x , NMVOC and SO 2 both per…
The Amazon Region: Tropical Deforestation, Biogeochemical Cycles and the Climate
The biogeochemical cycling of carbon, water, energy, aerosols, and trace gases in the Amazon Basin, and the interactions between deforestation, rainfall and climate were all investigated in this…
Standard values for nutrients in surface-water bodies
Critical characteristics have been evaluated indication of the switch from the eutrophic status to the recovered clear-water status. Reduction of the nutrient load or nutrient concentration was…
Responsibility for Past and Future Global Warming: Uncertainties in Attributing Anthropogenic Climate Change
During the negotiations on the Kyoto Protocol, Brazil proposed a methodology to link the relative contribution of Annex I Parties to emission reductions with the relative contributions of Parties to…

Biodiversity: how much is left? The Natural Capital Index framework (NCI)
The Natural Capital Index framework (NCI), developed as a contribution to the implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), was designed to answer the questions ‘How much…
Comparison of global passenger transport models and available literature
Over the last decade transport has been strongest growing sector in terms of worldwide energy demand. As a result, proper modelling of transport has become more important in models describing global…
Preliminary modelling and mapping of critical loads for cadmium and lead in Europa
The Working Group on Effects (WGE) of the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE-CLRTAP), noted the need to further develop…
Ozone layer - climate change interactions. Influence on UV levels and UV related effects
Ozone in the atmosphere serves as a partially protective filter against the most harmful part of the solar UV-spectrum. Decreases in ozone lead to increases in ambient UV with a wide variety of…
