Scenarios Plausible descriptions of the future evolution of climate and society. Qualitative and quantitative.

Scenario framework goals
Facilitate research information that can inform many different studies on mitigation, adaptation, and impacts
Facilitate assessment common futures that can be used across a wide range of studies so that they are more comparable
Explore uncertainty Span relevant ranges of uncertainty in climate change outcomes and socio-economic development pathways

The Parallel Process
RCPs
O’Neill & Schweizer, 2011; based on Moss et al. (2010).
Climate SSPs
![Page 5: The new scenario process for climate change research and socioeconomic data challenges › eventos › 2015 › Poblacion › doc › p-BrianO... · 2018-09-10 · change research](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060209/5f0458147e708231d40d83f3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Knutti and Sedlacek, 2012.
Climate model simulations based on RCPs
![Page 6: The new scenario process for climate change research and socioeconomic data challenges › eventos › 2015 › Poblacion › doc › p-BrianO... · 2018-09-10 · change research](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060209/5f0458147e708231d40d83f3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs)
Hypothetical “reference” development pathway
Reference: – No climate policy (mitigation or adaptation) – No effects of climate change
Development pathway: – Does not include typical model output (emissions, land
use, etc.)
Narrative Qualitative description of broad patterns of development Logic relating elements of narrative to each other
Quantitative elements Population Education Urbanization Income Spatial population Income distribution Etc.

SSP Narratives
SSP3: Regional Rivalry Growing interest in regional identity and concerns about competitiveness and security push countries to increasingly focus on domestic or, at most, regional issues. This trend is reinforced by the limited number of comparatively weak global institutions, with uneven coordination and cooperation for addressing environmental concerns. Policies are oriented towards security, including barriers to trade, particularly in the energy resource and agricultural markets. Countries focus on achieving energy and food security goals within their own region, at the expense of broader-based development. A low international priority for addressing environmental concerns leads to strong environmental degradation in some regions. The combination of impeded development and limited environmental concern results in poor progress towards sustainability. … etc.
SSP 3

Extension: Global Spatial Population Projections
Jones & O’Neill, in prep.
![Page 13: The new scenario process for climate change research and socioeconomic data challenges › eventos › 2015 › Poblacion › doc › p-BrianO... · 2018-09-10 · change research](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060209/5f0458147e708231d40d83f3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Extension: Income distribution within countries
Important for – vulnerability to climate change, adaptive capacity – evaluating distributional consequences of climate
policy – energy use and emissions
Differ widely across SSPs (e.g., SSP4: “Inequality”) Institutions involved in generating income distributions for SSPs
– IIASA, University of Denver, Stockholm Environment Institute, World Bank, Purdue University, NCAR
![Page 14: The new scenario process for climate change research and socioeconomic data challenges › eventos › 2015 › Poblacion › doc › p-BrianO... · 2018-09-10 · change research](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060209/5f0458147e708231d40d83f3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Extension: Regional scenarios
Regional scenarios informed by SSPs underway – Arctic Council scenarios – European projects (e.g., IMPRESSIONS) – AgMIP regional assessments – ??
