This report develops a climate change economic impact assessment, applying the Intertemporal Computable Equilibrium System (ICES) model developed at CMCC. The inputs for the exercise derive from the updated estimation of climate change impacts conducted under GEMINA WP6.2.9 P55. They refer to...

This study details the first experiment conducted to couple the information relative to fossil fuel subsidies with the database and structure of the ICES CGE model developed at the CMCC, and to test the general performance of the model simulating their potential removal. Data for multi country...

This report introduces the support offered by the Ophidia framework to handle data represented as bit arrays. It extends the description of MySQL plugins reported in a previous paper. Some examples of SQL query using to the proposed user defined functions for MySQL are presented and some...

Extreme events are becoming more frequent and intense, inflating the economic damages and social hardship setoff by natural catastrophes. Amidst budgetary cuts, there is a growing concern on societies' ability to design solvent disaster recovery strategies, while addressing equity and...

This paper presents an empirical study of energy demand in which demand for a series of energy goods (Gas, Oil Products, Coal, Electricity) is expressed as a function of various factors, including temperature. Parameter values are estimated econometrically, using a dynamic panel data approach....

This paper investigates the potential contribution of forestry management in meeting a CO2 stabilization policy of 550 ppmv by 2100. In order to assess the optimal response of the carbon market to forest sequestration we couple two global models. An energy-economyclimate model for the study of...

This technical report describes the CMCC Metadata Agreement; the aim of the schema is to classify the CMCC data production (input, intermediate data and output of the experiments), models, services, etc. The CMCC Metadata Agreement complies with the ISO 19115 standard for Geographic...

This technical report describes the climate scenario simulations provided by the INGV-CMCC to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The model used to run these simulations is SINTEX-G (INGV-SXG), a fully coupled Atmosphere Ocean General Circulation Model (AOGCM) able to run...

This document describes the CMCC Earth System Model (ESM) for the representation of the carbon cycle in the atmosphere, land, and ocean system. The structure of the report follows the software architecture of the full system. It is intended to give a technical description of the numerical models...
