The methodology provided by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) guidelines is widely used for estimating enteric methane (CH4) production by cattle. No attempt other than the default values in the IPCC Tier 1 has been made for estimating CH4 emission from Hanwoo, a dominant beef species in Korea raised in a unique feeding system. The objective of this study was to compare model...

Climate change poses a major problem for the collective future. Ways of understanding climatic future are many and diverse. This paper examines one these methods, so-called “reformist” approach, reconstructed from conception in IPCC Reports on climate change. After establishing formal practicalcognitive dimensions, institutional foundations used to specify dimensions this way examined.

Founded by the World Me te o ro log i cal Or ga ni za tion (WMO) and the United Na tions En vi ron ment Programme (UNEP) in 1988, the In ter gov ern men tal Panel on Cli mate Change (IPCC) is en gaged in a unique sci en tific as sess ment pro cess. Not only is the IPCC ex plic itly tied to the United Na tions Frame work Con ven tion on Cli mate Change (UNFCCC) as its pol icy au di ence, but it ...

Forecasts of decadal climate change at subcontinental scales made by global climate models (GCMs) are currently too uncertain to be useful to policy makers. For example, the forecasts of global mean surface temperatures in the current Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on Emissions (SRES) A1B scenario show an agreement across 15 models of about ±0.75 K in warming of...

Delve a little deeper and the CCA report is largely based on the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Explore the IPCC's claims and the evidence there is also remarkably weak. First we have an assumption that temperature data is accurate and that a loose but delayed correlation between the increases in temperature and carbon dioxide is somehow evidence that carbon dio...

The paper reviews base year emission inventories, driving forces, and long-term scenarios of sulfur emissions as background material for developing a new set of IPCC emissions scenarios. The paper concludes that future sulfur emission trends will be spatially heterogeneous (decline in OECD countries, rapid increase particularly in Asia) and therefore cannot be modeled at a global scale only. In...
