Sea-level rise is a critical and uncertain climate change risk, involving timescales of centuries.

Briefings
The IEA recently developed three updated scenarios for the 2012 edition of Energy Technology Perspectives. Here we assess their probabilities of limiting warming to the long term climate goals mention in the Cancun agreement.

This paper introduces a new approach to probabilistic projections of regional climate change.

This study compares emission pathways aimed at limiting temperature increase to 2°C under varying constraints. The 2020 emission level represents a trade-off between short-term emission reductions and long-term dependence on rapid reductions through specific technologies (like negative emission reductions). Higher 2020 emissions lead to higher overall costs.
