Closing the global N2O budget: A retrospective analysis 1500–1994
We present new estimates of global nitrous oxide (N 2O) emissions for the period 1500–1994 based on revised Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change guidelines [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate…
Global change scenarios of the 21st century. Results from the IMAGE 2.1 Model
Global Change Scenarios of the 21st Century informs readers of conceivable environmental changes in the next hundred years. Integrated scenarios are used to communicate large amounts of information…
Many developing countries like the concept of burden sharing because it accounts for historical emissions. At the same time, others think it could provide a basis for translating the concept of…
CO2 exchange between grassland and the atmosphere. Results over a four year period of CO2 measurements at Cabauw, The Netherlands
An evaluation was made from the results of four years of measurements of the CO 2 exchange between grassland and the atmosphere. The measurements were performed at Cabauw, in the centre of the…
Experiences with a dialogue process between policy makers and global modellers
