Paper doi abstract bibtex It is now clear that human-induced climate change is caused by (1) oil, gas, coal, and biofuel combustion in utility and industrial boilers and land, sea, and air transportation systems that produce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other radiatively active gases to the atmosphere; and (2) land use and land use change activities that release CO2, methane, and/or nitrous oxide to the atmosphere (IPCC 2013). Emissions of these substances lead to net increases in the accumulations of these gases in the atmosphere (i.e., above those that occur naturally). Because these gases allow more of the heat from the sun’s radiation through to the earth’s surface than from the earth’s surface back out to deep space, they are generally referred to as greenhouse gases (GHGs). Assessments of the effects of climate change on people and their property, wildlife, and ecosystems indicate that these effects can be significant (IPCC 2014a). This has led to the consideration of three main approaches for ameliorating the impacts of climate change: (1) mitigation of GHG emissions, (2) adaptation to any climate changes that might occur, and (3) geoengineering to influence the amount of solar energy reaching the earth’s surface and/or to influence the chemistry of the oceans. Because the relationships within and between the various biogeochemical and socioeconomic components of the earth system can be quite complex, a number of quantitative models have been developed to study earth systemwide climate changes and the effect of various types of public policies on projections of future climate change. These models have become known as “integrated assessment of climate change” or simply integrated assessment models (IAMs).
