Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) are climate change scenarios to project future greenhouse gas concentrations. These pathways (or trajectories) describe future greenhouse gas concentrations (not emissions) and have been formally adopted by the IPCC.

2013年11月17日 · The RCP 4.5 scenario is a stabilization scenario, which means the radiative forcing level stabilizes at 4.5 W/m 2 before 2100 by employment of a range of technologies and strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 is a scenario that stabilizes radiative forcing at 4.5 Watts per meter squared in the year 2100 without ever exceeding that value.

2011年7月29日 · Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 is a scenario of long-term, global emissions of greenhouse gases, short-lived species, and land-use-land-cover which stabilizes radiative forcing at 4.5 W m −2 (approximately 650 ppm CO 2-equivalent) in the year 2100 without ever exceeding that value.

The RCP 4.5 scenario is associated with warming of approximately 2°C above the modern climate normal. To produce regionally relevant projections, results from the global models were statistically downscaled using a method called Localized Constructed Analogs ( LOCA ).

2011年7月29日 · Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 is a scenario that stabilizes radiative forcing at 4.5 W m-2 in the year 2100 without ever exceeding that value. Simulated with the Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM), RCP4.5 includes long-term, global emissions of greenhouse gases, short-lived species, and land-use-land-cover in a global ...

2013年9月27日 · These four RCPs – 2.6, 4.5, 6 and 8.5 – represent a wide range of potential worldwide greenhouse gas emissions and sequestration scenarios for the coming century.

This paper summarizes the development process and main characteristics of the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), a set of four new pathways developed for the climate modeling community as a basis for long-term and near-term modeling experiments.

The RCP database aims at documenting the emissions, concentrations, and land-cover change projections of the so-called "Representative Concentration Pathways" (RCPs). Information about the RCPs and the scenario development process for the IPCC AR5 can be found in the IPCC Expert Meeting Report on New Scenarios and Moss et al. (2010) .

RCP 4.5 would mean an increase of 4.5 W/m 2 for the same time period. Radiative forcing is the change in amount of energy in minus the amount of energy out due to external drivers such as increased greenhouse gases and aerosols.

2011年11月1日 · Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 is a scenario that stabilizes radiative forcing at 4.5 W m−2 in the year 2100 without ever exceeding that value.

The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) projections make use of Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), which are designed to provide plausible future scenarios of anthropogenic forcing spanning a range from a low emission scenario characterized by active mitigation (RCP 2.6), through two intermediate scenarios (RCP 4.5 ...

RCP4.5 is one of four main RCP scenarios used in climate research, indicating various potential future emissions pathways. Under RCP4.5, it is estimated that global temperatures could rise by approximately 1.8 to 2.9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels by 2100.

Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, ASCE/SEI 7-10, provides requirements for general structural design and includes means for determining dead, live, soil, flood, snow, rain, atmospheric ice, earthquake, and wind loads, as well as their combinations, which are suitable for inclusion in building codes and other documents.
