Site-specific global warming potentials of biogenic CO2 for bioenergy: contributions from carbon fluxes and albedo dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Production of biomass for bioenergy can alter biogeochemical and biogeophysical mechanisms, thus affecting local and global climate. Recent scientific developments have mainly embraced impacts from land use changes resulting ... -
Spatial variation in household consumption-based carbon emission inventories for 1200 Japanese cities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Given that national pledges are likely insufficient to meet Paris greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets (Fawcett et al 2015 Science 350), increasingly actors at the city and state level are looking for options on how local ... -
Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering could lower future risk of 'Day Zero' level droughts in Cape Town
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Anthropogenic forcing of the climate is estimated to have increased the likelihood of the 2015–2017 Western Cape drought, also called 'Day Zero' drought, by a factor of three, with a projected additional threefold increase ... -
Supply chain effects of China's fast growing marine economy on greenhouse gas emissions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The marine economic activities has become a vital economic driving force for development of China's economy. However, the trajectory of greenhouse gas (i.e. GHG) emissions associated the fast growing marine economy and its ... -
The growing importance of scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions from industry
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Carbon reporting is increasingly focussing on indirect emissions that occur in the supply chain of establishments. The GHG protocol, a corporate standard, distinguishes scope 2 (emissions associated with electricity ... -
The role of large - scale BECCS in the pursuit of the 1.5°C target – an Earth system model perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The increasing awareness of the many damaging aspects of climate change has prompted research into ways of reducing and reversing the anthropogenic increase in carbon concentrations in the atmosphere. Most emission scenarios ... -
The size and range effect: lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of electric vehicles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The primary goal of this study is to investigate the effect of increasing battery size and driving range to the environmental impact of electric vehicles (EVs). To this end, we compile cradle-to-grave inventories for EVs ... -
Tracing global supply chains to air pollution hotspots
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)While high-income countries have made significant strides since the 1970s in improving air quality, air pollution continues to rise in many developing countries and the world as a whole. A significant share of the pollution ... -
Warmer and wetter winters: characteristics and implications of an extreme weather event in the High Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)One predicted consequence of global warming is an increased frequency of extreme weather events, such as heat waves, droughts, or heavy rainfalls. In parts of the Arctic, extreme warm spells and heavy rain-on-snow (ROS) ...
