Assessing agricultural risks of climate change in the 21st century in a global gridded crop model intercomparison
Here we present the results from an intercomparison of multiple global gridded crop models (GGCMs) within the framework of the Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project and the Inter…
Climate impact of transportation A model comparison
Transportation contributes to a significant and rising share of global energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore modeling future travel demand, its fuel use, and resulting CO 2 emission is…
Methods for calculating transport emissions in the Netherlands
This report describes the methodologies, emission factors and relevant activity data used to calculate the emission of environmental pollutants from mobile sources in the Netherlands. The emissions…
Grootschalige concentratie- en depositiekaarten Nederland: Rapportage 2013
Het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu (RIVM) presenteert jaarlijks een update van kaarten waarin de concentraties van luchtverontreinigende stoffen in Nederland tot 2030 staan weergegeven…
The functioning of the European Union (EU) emission trading system (ETS) is under debate. Although the ETS guarantees emission reductions by 2020, the current low prices fuel doubts about whether it…
Hindcasts and Future Projections of Global Inland and Coastal Nitrogen and Phosphorus Loads Due to Finfish Aquaculture
A global model is used to calculate feed and nutrient budgets for freshwater and marine omnivorous and carnivorous aquacultural finfish production. The model uses national production data for the…
Costs and Benefits of Nitrogen for Europe and Implications for Mitigation
Cost-benefit analysis can be used to provide guidance for emerging policy priorities in reducing nitrogen (N) pollution. The results support the priority for further reduction in NH 3 and NO x…
Het prijskaartje van stikstofbemesting en -vervuiling in Europa
Stikstofvervuiling door uitlaatgassen, bemesting en riolen is één van de grootste milieuproblemen van deze tijd. Door milieumaatregelen is dit probleem in Europa inmiddels behoorlijk teruggedrongen…
Influence of travel behavior on global CO2 emissions
Travel demand is rising steeply and its contribution to global CO 2 emissions is increasing. Different studies have shown possible mitigation through technological options, but so far few studies have…
