Hydropower dependency and climate change in sub-Saharan Africa: A nexus framework and evidence-based review
In sub-Saharan Africa, 160 million grid-connected electricity consumers live in countries where hydropower accounts for over 50% of total power supply. A warmer climate with more frequent and intense…
The role of methane in future climate strategies: mitigation potentials and climate impacts
This study examines model-specific assumptions and projections of methane (CH 4) emissions in deep mitigation scenarios generated by integrated assessment models (IAMs). For this, scenarios of nine…
Het kabinet streeft sinds 2017 naar een natuurinclusieve landbouw in Nederland. Maar hoe staat het er nu voor? En wat zijn de kansen en belemmeringen voor boeren om over te stappen op natuurinclusieve…
Studie naar de voedselzekerheid effecten van mondiaal klimaatbeleid
Veel mondiale klimaatstrategieën maken gebruik van bio-energie en herbebossing. Beide strategieën gebruiken ook land en kunnen daardoor leiden tot een stijging van voedselprijzen. Als hier niets aan…
Towards Universal Access to Clean Cooking Solutions in Sub-Saharan Africa
A transition away from the use of fuelwood and charcoal for cooking can prevent hundreds of thousands of premature deaths caused by household air pollution. This study explores various policy options…
First forcing estimates from the future CMIP6 scenarios of anthropogenic aerosol optical properties and an associated Twomey effect
We present the first forcing interpretation of the future anthropogenic aerosol scenarios of CMIP6 with the simple plumes parameterisation MACv2-SP. The nine scenarios for 2015 to 2100 are based on…
