Japan’s long-term CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emission reduction scenarios are assessed with a computable general equilibrium model with recursive dynamics, which was modified in order to assess the effects of renewable energy supply. The period of assessment is from 2000 to 2050 and the increase of gross domestic...</subscript>

The objectives of this study were to carry out a review of mitigation scenarios that have emerged since the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Third Assessment Report (TAR), to update the current Emissions Scenarios Database with these scenarios, and to analyze emissions and...

In order to respond to climate change, it is essential to describe possible future greenhouse gas (GHG) emission trajectories in both nonintervention and intervention terms. This paper analyzes long-term GHG mitigation emission scenarios according to alternative development paths in the world...

In order to formulate policies in response to climate change, it is essential to forecast future greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions over the long term. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) developed the IS92 emission scenarios in 1992, which have contributed to climate change studies...

We have been developing a policy support tool, AIM/impact[policy], for use in the integrated assessment of global warming control targets including the stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations, economically efficient emissions paths to realizing these targets, and consequent impacts and...

Technical measures for reducing CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions are assessed with a global energy model on the basis of the SRES baseline scenarios. The model study suggests some insights regarding the question as to what combination of measures would be the cost-minimal technological responses to the global...</subscript>

This article assesses emissions scenarios in the literature, originally documented in the scenario database that was developed more than 7 years ago. The original scenario assessment and literature review has been used, among other things, as the basis for the quantification of the...

With its recent rapid economic growth, China has become one of the foremost countries in terms of energy consumption and CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emission. The extent of future CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emission in China and how to reduce it are important issues. This paper presents the forecast results of CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emission studies for...</subscript></subscript></subscript>

Numerous CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emission scenarios have recently been proposed. However, the time ranges of most scenarios are not long enough to allow analysis of their climate implications. An extrapolation method is proposed to link the emission scenarios with atmospheric stabilization targets that take effect...</subscript>
